Shape Run~Shape Up! Up Up and Away!!

Sunday, September 9th, 2007

*Ti Ti Ti Ti*~non stop "music" from my handphone at 6am of a lazy Sunday morning. Well, today is Shape Run 07 and dear moi has signed up for the 10km run! Collected my runner’s T (its Nike!) on Sat noon and surprise surprise, the design was really cool and not so obiang compared to the previous run I had like Great Eastern Women and Standardcharterd *oops*. Anyway, reached the flag off point about 5mins after the race had started and had a tough time running with the 5km ladies (who appeared in hordes!) till the 2.5km mark. Tats where the 5km bunch made their U-turn while I continued my journey.

Maybe due to that I juz had run about 1 month back so this time round, it wasn’t tat bad. I was running about 85% of the time. Only regret was tat I din sprint near the finishing point, tat was wat I used to do in previous run. But den, the timing shouldn’t be tat bad,heehee..Till now still couldn’t understand why the organisers had to make us walk to one end of Esplanade to collect the Vitagen instead of having them collected together with the goodie bag at Marina Square. It would have save us lotsa time walking to and fro. I had a nasty scare during the run~I thought I had accidentally broke off my toe nails again when I felt sharp pain in both feet after running 4km. Was wishfully hoping tat can avoid wearing covered shoes to work tommorrow,hahaha :P

Had a short nap before making our way down to the beach. The weather was nice, erm abit too sunny I should say. Had lotsa fun playing 2-2 with Ah Ger. DD pig kept himself well entertained at 4-4 games. Till he accidentally hit Ah Ger’s volleyball onto a coconut tree. The guys had a fun time trying to get the volleyball down by throwing sand filled mineral water bottles. In the end, it was Rick who came to the rescue after close to 10 minutes had passed and nearly every guy had their attempt. 

Now, thats the fun part. The painful part was~I got injured by Mike at my first 2-2 match of the day. He somehow dived and digged his fingers into the flesh of my right foot! Blood started to flow and luckily the sand helped to stop the bleeding. Continued playing like nothing happened and nearly screamed during bath time.*sob sob sob*. Oh well, at least the part of not having to wear covered shoes tommorrow was a consolation. Boy am I tired, imagine having to wake up as 6am on a non working day..Super big turn off but den I make the choice so can’t grumble much. At least the goodie bag was fabulous!

September!!! Start of a brand new month (PAYDAY!!) and of coz when we are paid, it means its time for us to slog slog slog. Another round of closing (my 4th round to be exact) for moi and as usual hiccups along the way (thanks to a goon goon). Sometimes I wonder how should I impart knowledge to someone who seems to know all when instructed yet the final result is such a dismay (you have no idea how much I would love to strangle tat goon goon *urghhh*)

Well, I still have 4 more days ahead so I shall kip my fingers tightly crossed and pray super duper hard tat no screw ups will happen like last month (I dun wanna stay till 11pm!!! NO OT PAY!!!) Moving to much light hearted stuff –> I took part in Amore Womens Day Out 2007!!! Yep, no doubt tats me doing the Yoga and Stretchfit outside Ngee Ann City on Sat evening (1/9). Its been like a couple of years (3 to be exact) since I last did Yoga and surprise surprise, I din break a bone or sprain my back last Sat *evil grin*, heh heh heh…But den, I blew a hole in my pocket coz kuku me 4got to bring along a Yoga mat!! To add insult, I wore track shoes *DUHZZZ* It must either be the weather or the obsession with aerobics..muahahahaha

Btw, I simply adore the pink event Tee as well as the cool white gym bag tat was collected at the end of the event. Not to say I am thick skinned or wat but I really gotta gif myself a pat on the back coz I never expected myself to participate in such an event at the busiest part of Orchard Rd and frankly speaking, I wasn’t conscious of the on-lookers at all. I was too focused on following the instructions and ensuring that I continued to breathe while changing from one posture to another,heehee :P

To tell the truth, it was kinda weird going to such event by myself but I guessed people who does Yoga are a friendly bunch. A simple nod and a smile was all it took to break some ice, although we were all busily following the movements of the instructor on stage and couldn’t really engage in neat conversations. But at least, I dun feel so lonesome =) Some people must have tot tat I m nuts to join such events by myself, but hey I can’t force my frenz to accompany me in some events which they have zero interest in. Besides, if eveyone gotta wait for someone to accomplish something, it will take ages b4 things get done.

Next Up –> Shape Run 2007 on 9/9!!
