Swissotel Vertical Marathon 2011

My very first stair climbing to the top of the Swissotel Helipad was much easy as I expected. I thought of being stuffy and hot. But they kept some of the escape door open for air ventilation. Bottles of water were given at one of the level. Most of the organizer were very encouraging and clapping for you.

Saw our friend








The Queue to the starting point





















In the q with the guys















Everyone queue to the starting point. The queue was fast but I had to be serepate with my friends cause women starts in different waves. So I have to re join the queue alone while my friends were behind the starting line.

Everything is just so small up there. I can see the beauty of Singapore from up there. Everything that is built up from nothing til today. New building keep popping out. Its even more beautiful at night I guess.  Gorgeous Gorgeous.

And next is to take the lift from the top the bottom.  71 to 4 with a blink of an eye.
