10-10-10: I made it! ^=^

10-10-10 ->> 10th Oct 2010 marked my 1st 30km. I'm so HAPPY that I made it alive.

1st of all must 'THANK GOD' for the beautiful weather else I would not make it within my targetted time of 4.5 hours. In the morning, it was raining and I thought... Oh no.... not another Yellow Ribbon run in the rain. Hahaha...then the rain stopped just when the race was about to start. Yippee!!! After the rain, the weather was pretty cooling all the way till 11am. Mr. Sunshine only woke up after 11am.

I only managed to run non-stop for the 1st 12km. After that, I started to have short breaks in between runs. The 1st 20km was still OK. After that, my legs started to get very tired though waist up can still make it. My waist down basically gave up on me after 25km. I walked a lot during my last 10km and was like dragging my legs at some point.

I took forever to complete my last 1km. The timing ain't great but I'm glad I completed my 1st 30km. I think I'm OK for 21km now but for full marathon definitely need LOTS and LOTS of training to avoid 'jelly legs'. Hahaha...

And here's the medal we got for finishing the race. This round's run have no nice goody bag and the running T is just a normal T. Anyway, a lot just joined to clock the 30km.

The next run wil be on 24th Oct 2010 - Nike City Run 2010. ^=^

3 months

This is 3 months growth of hair... and after a short trim couple of weeks ago... just to shape it up at the side and clean up the hair round my ears. I find it suddenly growing very slowly at this stage. = (

Piggy tells me I need 2 years to grow back my previous shoulder length hair. Hahaha... does that mean that I will not be able to grow it long before the next round? *Sigh.... Anyway, I think it's quite cooling to have this hairstyle. haha...

==================================

"LUCKY" Lately?!?
--------------------
Lately, I'm in lucky streak which is a very seldom occassion for me..... it started with winning a 'universal travel adapter' through a quiz entry, then follow by a $20 voucher through submission of suggestions and yesterday, another $50 voucher at work. Hope I will win a big lucky draw prize next Sun during my company Dinner & Dance. ^=^

Missing Piece in your Puzzle... ^=^

What would you do if there's a 'missing piece' in your puzzle?

-> Spend all your time searching for that 'particular' piece till you find it to fit in your puzzle?

-> Go buy another new set of puzzle and ignore the old incomplete puzzle?

-> Give up on the puzzle totally and forget about it?

-> Ignore the 'missing' piece and just frame up the complete puzzle with missing piece. Nothing's perfect anyway. It's ART! ^=^


* just crapping... haha...

2 more weeks to go...

2 more weeks to go... and it will be my 1st 30km run on 10th Oct 2010. Hope I will enjoy my 1st long distance run and complete the run injury free. If my 30km went well, I might try for a full marathon next year with proper training. ^=^

Yellow Ribbon Prison Run 2010 Results => 1h:11m:23s
Better than last year's Yellow Ribbon Run results but did not break my personal best.

Universal Studio Singapore

Piggy's company had some good deals in buying Universal Studio' tickets so we end up visiting USS = Universal Studio Singapore on Saturday (4th Sept 2010). Buy 1 free 1 tickets so each of us only need to pay SGD34. The place ain't that big so spending 1 day there is just nice.


We only spent about 8 hours there as we went in only after 11am and left about 7pm plus coz one of my friend was not feeling very well after one of the 'Ancient Egypt' rides. We didn't stay back for the fireworks at 9:30pm. Anyway, the whole place and rides are closed at 7pm. Only left 'Hollywood' section still open up till 10pm.



We didn't go in the Casino as Singaporeans and PRs have to pay SGD100 deposit which are un-refundable. Lucky we don't gamble so does not affect us.



We visited the 'Far far away' and took pictures with SHREK and Princess Fiona, watched the 4D Shrek show and Donkey singing at the Midnight Club.
I bought myself a cute 'Gingerbreadman'. Really can't helpt it... I heard it calling to me. Haha.... Now, it is sitting on my bed and his name is 'Gingy'... ^=^

Look at all the lovely SHREK Babies.. so cute ya... but they're all GREEN so don't appeal that much to me... maybe to Ms. Mo but she loves HULK more....

We met PO the Kungfu Panda there as well and gave him a big hug and took pix with him.

And here's Mr. Frankenstein.... he was so excited when he saw Ms. Mo... jumped down from the bench and go hug her... hahaha... Green attraction...
Other than the 'Far far away' attraction, there's 'Madagascar'. We only managed to go for a couple of rides and shows but basically visited the whole theme park. It was a FUN outing.

Yellow Ribbon Prison Run 2010 - Wet Sunday

This morning, Piggy and I went to Changi for the Yellow Ribbon Prison 10km run and it was raining cats and dogs. We were hoping the rain would stop but it went on all the way till even after we finish the run. We were all given a transparent poncho and we all look so funny running with the ponchos.

This is the 1st time running the whole stretch of 10km with the poncho and all wet...

Ms Mo's clean shoes with the 'yellow laces' before the run....
This is how my shoes looked like after the run and collection of the baggage in the mud... = (

The Yellow Ribbon Prison Run 2010 Carnival....

This year, we're given a key for the finisher momento.... a key to unlock d' 2nd prison....^=^

Despite the chaotic baggage collection, overall I still enjoyed the cooling run eventhough I'm damn sleepy and tired after the 'Universal Studios' trip the day before.... ^=^
