It's ALL About Race Day!

We got rained out at today's OSIM International Triathlon! The organizers made the difficult call of stopping the race due to the inclement weather! To put things in perspective, our lives are worth more than any race... So thank you organizers! For many of us (myself included) would not have thought twice... and would have carried on racing. Unwise but true! I know many have trained long and hard for this day! Do take heart! There's always another race! All we can do is to do our part and prepare ourselves, however, there are some things we have no control over. So just take it in our stride... Basically, not to take life too serious yah!! ;op We have to learn to see the humour in life, particularly, when things don't go according to our plan! I must admit that despite the rain, it was quite fun walking and running around in the mud! Quite a mud bath if I may add!! hahaha... Chatting with friends and making new friends as we talked about the race and the weather was a change from the usual 'zooming and zipping' by... Til the next race everyone! Keep well and keep training!

Rain or Shine!

Due to the wet weather, many ladies who registered for the adidas Women's Run did not turn up for the run today. A few of the ladies did brave the inclement weather to join us! And I would like to thank you for your attendance as it meant that the efforts and time spent in co-ordinating and organising the run by a team of dedicated individuals did not go to waste. I had a wonderful time running, chatting, and sharing with you today. The small run group provided me with the opportunity to get to know each of you better and also to address your individual questions and concerns. All adidas Women's Run will be conducted RAIN or SHINE! We have alternative run session plans for wet weathers. So just head on down the next time even when it showers! See you all on 19th August!

It was such joy to see the smiles and glows on your faces as you told me your times! Your commitment, discipline and hard work have certainly paid off! Keep it up!!
