The Standard Chartyered 2009 certificates are finally here. My official time is given as 2:25:56 (as opposed to my watch's 2:25:13.83).
Equally, they got my names right including the elusive 'Otsieno.' Last year I was referred to as Otieno. The two are different: Otsieno is derived from Otieno. I can't get a matching pronunciation for 'ts' offhead but it is softer than 'th' in 'thing.' Most non Luo and Non-Luyia speakers can't tell the difference or they just don't give a damn.
Anyway, I downloaded my certificate yesterday and should print it out on good quality paper tomorrow or Monday.
Whatever else you may say about the race organisers - like: 'What the heck were they thinking not to place those distance markers on the course?' - they did an awesome job on certificates.
No queues, no faulty printers, no countless helps etc.
They saved on money - all that printing, personnel, paper etc (not that I care!) - and put technology to good use.
