The Organizers have also applied for recognition with the Association of International Marathons (AIMS) with the view of becoming a distinguished annual marathon event at par with other international marathon events in the Asia-Pacific Region ( source : <a title=\"Garuda Bali International Marathon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.garudabalimarathon.com\/event\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.garudabalimarathon.com\/event<\/a> ).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Gapura Garuda Marathon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Gapura-Garuda-Marathon.jpg\" alt=\"Gapura Garuda Marathon\" width=\"400\" height=\"269\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-725\" title=\"All participants\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/All-participants.jpg\" alt=\"All participants\" width=\"400\" height=\"269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/All-participants.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/All-participants-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-732\" title=\"Balinese genjreng\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Balinese-genjreng.jpg\" alt=\"Balinese genjreng\" width=\"400\" height=\"269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Balinese-genjreng.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Balinese-genjreng-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At first <a title=\"Bart's twitter!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/bartcatapult\" target=\"_blank\">Benny<\/a> thought he could do the 21K Half Marathon (they called <strong>it HALF<\/strong> Bart!), but I tried so hard to convince him that it&#8217;s a little bit<strong> <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">insane<\/span><\/strong>, as I didn&#8217;t want to be the one who has to call the ambulance for him..LOL .
