Sorry about that … It was probably Elaine Lim of Wings Athletic Club

I’ll confirm the results … gimme a week or so to get the final details of her race

You have to understand, that I don’t have the resources. I’m not affiliated or has the funding as our association (SAA)

This is a athletics fansite, I’m not paid doing this too

I am one person behind all of this, I try my best to give exposure to athletes/events and put up results/media done during my whatever free time from my job/studies

I’m passionate about athletics but there’s only so much can be done with my limitations, hope you’ll understand

I’ll try my best to furnish more details for future reports

Thanks for the feedback

Hi,
firstly, I thinks its great that there is a report on the Jakarta 10km race. But what really disappointed me was that there were no results for our female representative apart from the fact that she did it in 41min, which is a pretty impressive timing for a female in Spore. I think there are only a handful of Sporean female athletes who are around that timing so I would like to know where she stands in an international meet.

“?.Elaine (41:00) Singapore” This was the result given in the website. I believe there is more than one Elaine in Spore and perhaps also more than one Elaine in the Spore running scene. The point I’m trying to make here is that lets RESPECT our local athletes and ACKNOWLEDGE their efforts. Perhaps there is no need for an interview (There is an article on Darshananth so kudos to that)but I do not think it is that difficult to get her full name and results given that there are only 2 representatives from Spore.
