It was bad. Like most, I agree that the run itself was OK, till you reach the Finish line. It all went to hell after that. After waiting 1.5 hours for the lucky draw / throwathon baggage collection, I decided to approach several "Crew" members and finally the MC at the stage; to ask where the Official / Management of the event were. Apparently, no one knew there was a problem at baggage. (seriously ??) Most of the crew were seen busy tending to the VIP areas and closing shop at the main stage section.
Where is crowd control ?
Do your bosses know what's going on ?
Where are all the volunteers/crew/RELA staff ? (they are various small groups from crew/RELA all idling around seemingly doing nothing)
The answer i got :
Person in charge - Winnie, from High Velocity; and that
"they are on the way / they know". It's Energizer 2011 again folks.
I finally got my luggage after 3hours + at 10.15pm. Nike was lucky (yes count your blessing Nike) that the crowd did not riot, there were no incidents, no one was trampled, and that people were honest in getting their bags and even helped each other.
Shame on Nike. Shame on High Velocity. Let's see how Nike handles this.
