Asked JQ and JJ if they could come as well, even though it was last min. Unfortunately they weren't able to make it. :( Only bro DH & cousin YX were available.
The official starting time of the run was at 4pm. We started running at 5pm though. Mainly due to the large crowd swarming around the shuttle buses and monorails @ harbourfront. Not to mention the massive human-blockages en-route to the baggage drop off point area (we had to wait so long just to cross the road lol).
Start of the run:
Shirts are still clean!
The run was really enjoyable and the energy was really high. There were several points during the run where volunteers will throw some bio-degradable powder at you to make your shirt/body very colourful! People were all super friendly to each other as well which was kinda cool. I Hi-5ed so many random strangers. :P
You aren't really gonna run the whole thing as at certain points there are chokes of people who are walking quite slowly and you just gotta follow them. It was quite amusing though as everyone is picking up powder from the floor and randomly throwing it at each other. Just need to dodge those shots to the eyes @@.
End of the run:
So colourful!
Back-view
There were also lots of things to do at the after-party. There was a main stage where everyone was busy raving. There are many other small booths as well, some of which includes doing small challenges (pushups, jumping jacks, etc) to win new balance apparels. Too bad the queue was long as hell though, otherwise we sure go and play.
There were also a couple of shops around, DH bought shampoos which we used after to clean-up. The shampoos actually had a pretty nice smell and I really liked the packaging of it, the brand was 'Original Source' and it was like 1 for 1 for $6.50. In fact, I'll probably be getting some of em' next time.
As for me, I was just being a cheapskate Singaporean and 'stealing' cans of 100plus from the refreshments corner. LOL ;x

After party - Main Stage (Skip to 1:04 for mass-colour throwing)
The whole event was really lively! Don't go and think that it's dirty or what, just try it! The first time will probably be the best, trust me.
