HÜBSCH JESS BABY

Last year, Baby and I took part in our first Mizuno Ekiden Race , running approximately 5.3km as the second and fourth runner respectively for our Team MESUGOI. This year, we returned to Mizuno Ekiden 2017 to participate in the 21.1km group race with another couple, Tracy and Yixiang. We called ourselves, Team 4-EVERSUKI !     Mizuno Ekiden  is a long distance relay race, and for this event, there were two categories of a 21.1KM run and a 42.195KM run for a group of 4 members.

Apart from the scorching hot weather, it was still an enjoyable experience.   Baby and I finally managed to find time to visit Hawker Chan's spacious restaurant at Smith Street which was officially opened last November. This is after-all, one of the cheapest price to pay for a Michelin Star Dining Experience! Do note that the original hawker stall in Chinatown Food Complex is the one with the actual award of the Michelin One-Star, and the S...

The Mizuno Ekiden 2016 is making it Singapore’s first full-fledged Ekiden race in the evening at 4pm .        Ekiden is a term referring to a long distance relay running race in Japanese culture.
