1, Good enviroment in S'pore, good air quality.
2, Convenient fascilities in S'pore, PCN net work (http://www.nparks.gov.sg/cms/index.php?option=com_visitorsguide&task=parkconnectors&Itemid=74) for pedestrians, runners, cyclists, roller skaters...
3, Good running culture in S'pore, tons of running events to take in part (http://sgrunners.com/blog/2010-race-calendar/).
4, Friendly tropical weather, always summer, no need to invest for apparels for different seasons.
5, High working intensity in S'pore deteriorates health. High meical expense and insurance cost. Running is a high efficient and low cost way to keep fit.
6, I reside in HDB flats and nearest swimming pool is 2km away, cycling on the road has safty concerns.
7, I'v finished 20km long run in ~2hrs within 2 months from I starting to run.
8, I duly resolved my knee injury and left less barrier and sufficient time for marathon training(4 months ).
9, My wife supports me.
There is Chinese saying best describes my situation: 天时，地利，人和. That means doing the right thing at right time, right place, with right person. I think that is what I'm doing now.
