Singapore Marathon
The organisers of the upcoming Singapore Marathon are understandably over the moon that 50,000 folks have signed up to run the various distances (42km, 21km, 10km). While it will all make for lovely crowd shots of packed streets and bring in a conservative estimate of S$1.5 million in registration fees alone (assuming a $30 per head), runners may end up being walkers for part of the route.
