Hello guys, I'm here to post the
Runspiration Crew Positioning info.
For
abby,
xinyun & me, we'll be stationed at the
Padang.
For
Abby:
Job Scope: To coordinate and ensure individual teams arrive from their performance points and to guide the teams to the holding areas.For
Xinyun:
Job Scope: To round up team involved in performance and prize awards at the holding area.For
Shu Rong:
Job Scope: To round up teams that are ready for performance, prize presentations & to lead teams to stage area.Take note that all of us are assigned with a male partner. Contact details of your partner will be passed to you asap.
For
Dianah & JunCheng, both of you will be at
Sector 5.
To give a brief guide, basically the whole stretch of the 42km is divided into 5 sectors. Along these 5 sectors, there will be 20 schools performing or rather they serve as a motivation drive for the runners.
Job scope: To ensure teams arrived at performance points at stipulated time and departure of teams from sector to Padang. To constantly have the full manifest list of teams, teacher's-in charge contact number as well as Bus Driver's contact numbers.The responsibility for both of you will definitely be heavier. In addition, you guys are required to know or memorise the locations of the performers. I'll pass you guys the maps asap.
Also, both of you may be located in sector 5 but both of you are under different in-charge.
Both of you are assigned with a female partner. Likewise, contact details of your partner will be given to you asap.
Please also take note that you are to board the same bus as the performers once they are done and to report back to Padang. Note to all volunteers:-Please report to the
Volunteer's tent at Padang by 4am. Do not be late.
-You are required to key in all your Sector's in charge, assistant/partner, bus driver contact details into your phone before the day of the marathon.
-You are advised to have your breakfast before you report at 4am.
-Bottled water will be loaded onto the assigned bus together with snack packs.
-Lunch will be provided at the Padang at 2pm.
-All volunteers (regardless of your location) are to report back to Padang once the event is over.
-Take note that you are
NOT ALLOWED to cross the path of the runners at any point in time.
-Keep a close watch on the performers(some of them are really young). There may be a possibility of the performers feeling unwell (dizzy, heat stroke etc) as they will be standing under the sun from 6.30am-1.30pm to perform. If it happens, report such incidence to your in charge immediately. I reckon this will apply more to
Dianah &
JunCheng.

Don't say

"You're almost there!" (When the runners are just starting the race)
"Having fun?" (when the runners are sweating profusely under the hot sun? you'll get a kick for that.
lol)
"Good job. Only 3 more hours!" (yea, rub it in man. ONLY 3 more hours)
Hang in there. Only 20 more kilometres to go! (
