KEEPING UP WITH THE 10KM RUNS...

I'm trying my hardest to keep running. Not only does it keep me fit but it also mentally challenges me...especially if I'm running on my own. 

I've competed in two 10k races recently. The Pocari Sweat Run, which started and ended on the Nicoll Highway. And the Run for Life, which was a nice run along East Coast Park. Two very different routes, both with their own challenges. 

I'm sad to say that I missed the Prison Run last weekend due to being sick following my trip home from the UK. However, I have the Great Eastern Women's Run on the 9th November (last years Great Eastern was my first 10k) to look forward to! Fingers crossed I can get a personal best!

BARE YOUR SOLE...

It's not very often Joe and I get to do activities on our own. So I decided that we would spend Saturday morning doing the Bare Your Sole walk together. 

"Bare Your Sole is an annual event organised by Habitat for Humanity Singapore, where people of all ages take one Saturday morning in a year to walk barefoot together to raise money for those in need. For many poor people in developing countries and disaster-stricken places, going barefoot is a daily reality."

It was a really nice (hot) day and we participated in the longer 5k route, whcih started (and ended) at Gardens by the Bay East, and took us across to the barrage and back. Joe had never been to the barrage so he experienced a new area of Singapore for the first time. A great walk for a great cause. We will most definitely be signing up again for this next year!
