New Balance Real Run 2009 (8 nov)

Its 6 am and our race starts at 730am...........
Its the organiser's idea to have the shuttle bus leaving so early...........
Well...........


We seldom get a chance to take pics before a race...........
Reason being either of us will always be 'on-the-dot'............
So yeah............
Opportunity is here.........
Just nice alan sister just came back from holiday(that explains the camera)..............

*this is peixuan................
A lady we just got to know at the race...........
Not becous we 'xian cha boh' or wad...........
We needed someone to shoot for us and it seems only polite to invite her to join in...........
And since she agreed.............

*turn out Alan & her have 4 mutual friends (facebook of cous)

We waited for the 1st light before shooting the cam again..........




*that is some horrible expression...........
haa........gosh

*just before the race flags off

____________________________________________
Shall skip the details of the course this time............
Taking away the pressure of not pressing for a personal timing makes this run alot more relaxed and enjoyable ............
One of the races i really enjoyed this year infact.............

*my eyes look tiny after the race
sial lah...............

*photo taking while waiting for the LUCKY DRAW!!!
That also explains the crowd behind..........

*I have never won anything from lucky draw before in my life
And of cous...........
not even this time round.................



After the dramatic 10 over draws for the final prize..........
Its time to ship out............
____________________________________________
Last but not least
Last picture taken just before we leave the place...........

Next stop...........
to the hotel and off to stand chart during reservist.........

Feeling down today???
Play this video...........
unless u watched it...........
if not im sure it make you smile at least.........
How the hell they thought of that..............



Do yourslf a favour............
Don't ever practice that song in your shower..............

till u read again



Don't know if im slow............
Its just that they really have this very lousily-done trailer adding on to that not-at-all-interesting poster just doesnt give me enough push to invest my 2 hours on this show...................
Well as you know i been watching so many movies this entire holiday and pretty dry up with shows to watch............
Was browsing through movies titles with high rating and thus landed me with this entry.........
__________________________________________________
'I am sam' is a touching show that will set you thinking about life.............
Thats what i always look for in movie shows............
Inspiring is the word..............
Heart-warming film about a mentally-challenged father who somehow managed to enlists the aid of a lawyer to help him regain custody of his daughter...........
__________________________________________________



*Thats the little girl in the show, all grown up
_______________________________________
The movie touches you but yet they don't over-do it causing you to flush that mucus down the entire box of tissue causing the trees to have died such an unworthy death...............
The actors & actresses done brilliant...............
Career-defining rather............

This is a two thumbs-up movie for me...................
If you like movies like; the green mile, the terminal, forest gump, pursuit for happiness, you will love this one............
Im giving seriously 4 pop-corns out of 5 for this one............
*3 boxes are salted (cous i like salted ones more)

Yellow ribbon prison run 2009


*Sorry there is no picture for this run (no taking of photos is allowed in the prison)........

Surprisingly interesting race.......
Firstly, the bus was jam in the traffic(imagine running half a km to start a 10km race)........
Secondly, its the 1st time i race in wet weather condition(lucky it was just drizzle)...........
Thirdly, its the 1st time i went into changi prison!!...........
Lastly not to mention the post-race walk home(beyond home!!)...............

Flag off 730.............
Bro drove us to expo for the shuttle bus.......
Left expo at 7.............
On the way there came the jam just outside my ex-camp(commando camp).......
All the way till 728 when i step out of the bus.......
Damn it.........
I hate it when late.........
Its the same for the army half marathon when flag off is 530 and the time i pass my bag to that army personnel for deposit is 530..........
You know being late means that you must and will waste time and effort to overtake those slower runner(meaning you go longer in distance)............
*No offence to slower runners.................

Its the most cooling run i ever had..........
Lots of upslope...........
I was so busy overtaking when before i know it.......
Im at the prison for my final dash...........
I really love the idea of ending in the prison...........
Its a very nice scenery........
I can see where the end point is and all..........
Cool...........
Really cool............
Those were there know what i mean.........

Here comes the ironic part of the whole story..........
When its time to go.......
We didn know where to head as there was no shuttle bus in sight.........
A prison officer pointed the way to get out(but guess he didn picture we meant for the shuttle bus)..................
Shuttle bus is not taken from outside but in the prison itself.......
We climb all the way up and out b4 they tell us its wrong........
More ironic is yet to come.......
The volenteer outside tell us the shuttle bus will pick us up from outside the prison somewhere further downwards.......
And there we go.........
2 hunks in the process of being 'duah'(con)..........
Where the hell is there even any shuttle bus picking anyone up.............

The thing is............
Our house is in between expo and changi prison..........
So guess what............
The 2 of us walked all he way from changi, PASS OUR HOUSE!!! back to the Expo..............
We go like............''WTH, cun believe this is happening to us''..............
Well....................move on...............
________________________________________________________
Done Army Half Marathon a month back...........
As mentioned, i was late.........
Its my 1st half marathon............
Didnt get the desire timing though...........
But it was a great experience.......
I went alone(didn like the feeling of no 1 to wait for after crossing finish line, no 1 to share the run with)............
Got to see junior commandos(few of them flying pass me during the race).......
Saw my previous CO as well...........
