Running Singlet Size Selection FAQ
1. What is the Running Singlet size selection exercise about?
As part of our efforts to ensure a more accurate fit of the Running Singlet for all participants, we have decided to let runners select their preferred size closer to the Race Entry Pack Collection (REPC) and race day. Thus, allowing them to have a better gauge of the size that they want for their Running Singlet.
2. When will the Running Singlet size selection exercise start and end?
The exercise will start on 6 October 2011 (Thursday) at 9.00am, and will end on 17 October (Monday) at 7.00pm, or when all runners have selected their preferred size, whichever is earlier.
Please note that the selection of available sizes for the Running Singlet remains unchanged and will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
3. Where can runners pick up the Running Singlet after selecting their preferred size?
All runners except participants registered under the Corporate/Bulk registration accounts will receive their Running Singlet at the Race Entry Pack Collection (REPC), which is enclosed within the race pack.
The race packs of participants registered under the Corporate/Bulk registration accounts will be delivered to their respective companies and organisations for distribution to these runners.

5. Can I change the size of my Running Singlet after I have made my selection?
No. Any request for a change in the size of the Running Singlet after selection will not be entertained.
6. Previously, it was announced that participants of the Full Marathon and Ekiden will also be able to select their preferred size for the Finisher's T-shirt. Will this selection still be carried out?
After an extensive review and further rounds of deliberation, the Organisers have decided to withdraw the size selection exercise for the Finisher's T-shirt from the initial plan.
Instead, Full Marathon and Ekiden runners can expect better facilitation by our staff at the Finisher's T-shirt collection zone on race day, which will provide them with a seamless collection experience on-site, to ensure that it happens as efficiently and quickly as possible.
Additional quantities of the Finisher's T-shirt have also been ordered to provide these runners with their preferred size as much as possible.
Distribution of the Finisher's T-shirt remains unchanged and will be issued on a first-come first-served basis.

8. Will there be separate cuttings for the ladies' and men's Finisher's T-shirts?
The Finisher's T-shirt is unisex and is only available in one general design.
9. What if all sizes of the Running Singlet and / or Finisher's T-shirt are too small / large for me?
The sizes specified in the size charts (see Q4 & Q7) generally cover a huge majority of the participants.
Unfortunately, there will not be any special arrangements made for participants who do not fit within the catered sizes. These participants are encouraged to choose the next best size that fits them.
10. Will the design of the Running Singlet and Finisher's T-shirt be different from the ones issued last year?
Yes. The designs of the Running Singlet and Finisher's T-shirt will be different from last year's, and all efforts have been made by the Organiser to provide a more trendy and fashionable look to the apparels.
11. Why are the measurements of the Finisher's T-shirt different from those of the Running Singlet based on the same size?
The Running Singlet was designed to provide a relatively tighter fit than the Finisher's T-shirt and with different designs and cuttings, this meant that different measurements apply to both apparel based on the same size.
