My running journey continues with Great Eastern Women's Run

Image
I signed up for the  Great Eastern Women's Run race, which is Asia's largest women-only on the 9th November 2014.     This year, my race pack was delivered to my doorstep. Thanks so much for making this arrangement for me, and I appreciate it loads! It consisted of an Adidas tee, a Tupperware Eco water bottle, race bib and finally, some sample products and discount vouchers from the sponsors.     I met up my running buddy, Tracy at The Float@Marina Bay as she needed to deposit her belongings at the baggage counter. As for me, as usual, I have my Baby to send me to the race venue and I left my belongings in the car.   The race started at the Singapore Flyer and finished at The Float@Marina Bay . This year, the crowd was overwhelming for my run category, the humble 5km! The race was flagged off at 7.40am, and it set off in waves of people. We crossed the start line in the third wave.   Tracy and I came bac...

  I registered myself in the race for the Great Eastern Women's Run (GEWR), Asia's largest women-only run which took place on the 10 November 2013.     Upon receiving a SMS message from the organization to pick up the race pack at Suntec City Atrium., and since the collection point is just at my workplace, I decided to pick up my pack on the first day of the collection (30 October 2013, Friday). Guess what? OM!! The queue was horrendous and I had to burn my lunch, and I queued for almost 45mins just to claim my race pack.     The race pack consisted of the ADIDAS race tee (M), a Tupperware Eco Cap-Flip Water Bottle, my race bib and of course some sample products and discount vouchers from the sponsors...   Exactly one week before my race, I went to Royal Sporting House Outlet which is located at Changi City Point to get my sports bra.   After all the price comparisons and material-testing, I decided on getting the Spand...

I had my Sunday dinner at the Singapore Food Trail which is located at the iconic Singapore Flyer . Singapore Food Trail’s dining theme is the rolling good times in the 60s, and therefore upon stepping into the Singapore Food Trail is like bringing back the nostalgic feel and charm of Singapore in the 1960s. It features all the best and delicacy local dishes in Singapore My weekend dinner consisted of Ang Mo Kio Yong Heng Fried Baby Squid Hokkien Mee, Katong Keah Kee Fried Oysters and a bowl of Cheng Teng.

Upon using the coupons, they do help me save up quite a bit of money, but however the stall people gave me a look when I presented the coupons to enjoy the ...

The Mind Body Spirit Festival 2013 which was held over the weekend at Singapore Flyer brought a fresh new experience for all walks of life!     Mind Body Spirit Festival 2013 offers you an unforgettable weekend of active workouts and relaxation with your friends and family at the iconic Singapore Flyer. The festival was packed with a wide selection of fitness workshops, such as yoga, pilates, zumba and other health workshops. There was a bazaar sale at the vicinity for Mothers who love to pamper themselves and indulge in retail therapy.   A lovely day-out with my folks at Singapore Flyer and from this picture, I discovered that we are too busy growing up and we forgotten that they have grown old so much. I LOVE YOU, DAD and MA!!   All thanks to Crowd, I got my passes which entitled us to access all workshops at Bayview Ballroom, Fitness Marathon and Yoga/ Pilates Mass Workout at the Greek Theatre.     The highlight ...
