In Facebook, Wong Ken Mun mentioned that he should have run in the Men Open Category. If he had run under the men open category, he would have come in third for the Civil Service Cross-country Race. Wong did 39min 02sec for 10km. In the race, Paul Kimani, a Kenyan runner, came in first for the 10km race.

In the race, Wong Ken Mun told me that the officials could have allowed the runners to concentrate on pacing by putting up the markers properly. Wong told me that the last km he ran 5min and he finds this preposterous. 

He asked me for my feedback on the race. I told him that he is hitting a good time that may allow him to do a sub - 3hrs for the Singapore Standard Chartered Marathon 2011.
