and he finished the distance in 1:28hr without hyperventitlating at the end!
drank only 2 cans of 100plus and could even go for wedding dinner after.

eric has signed up for SBR : shears bridge run 27th Aug

who will be signing up for the SBR? there are 3 distances for SBR; 21km fun and competitive, 10km and 5km fun run.
it is quite a carnival with lots of people who just want to get up and do it..
but also lots of disgrunlted army boys.

but generally well organised with lots of water points and cheerleaders along the way.. there will certainly be macho army boys and v cool madam egging you on at 530am! you will be greeted with sprays of cool water and music like 'eye of the tiger' (a bit cheesy but will still do the job).

hope all of you can do the 10km fun run ...
dress rehearsal for standard chartered.

our date on thursday by the Bay

it has been really hard for some of you to do 2 sessions a week and the weekday session is really a struggle for most of you.

for the next 2 weeks, we will have a special 7pm on thursday - our date on the Bay Special to help you jump start your workout regieme. the workout is essentially meeting at the War Memorial and run or walk along the coast for 30mins before turning back.

no pressure on how fast you walk or run but my advice is to go out there slower and come back with negative spilt. it would be more exciting this way and motivating since you can always look forward to the cold drinks that you can get from the stalls nearby.

it is perfect for those who are looking for something not too streneous and yet break a sweat before they hit the weekend's workouts. and for those workacholics, you can always go back for part 2 workout after the session.
something for everyone!

make time for our date!

PS. the sunset will almost make up for the pain for rushing out of the office...

earn allan's credit through Poach Coon's workout

it was another successful makan session by Chef Lim! the menu was benefitting to Wan's Cairhill Farewell with highlights like asparagus with Miso Sauce, 4 mushroom pasta, spicy meatball with some funky mushroom, ribeye steak, lamb kebab and 2 types of to die for dessert (apple strudle and awefully chocolate cake)!. the drinks were so appropriate for this tapas theme pool side party; sangria and red wine.

the scoubys almost could not make it but they came at the end.
i am sure they would have regretted.

if you think that this is just eating and chilling club, you are so wrong. we promote healthy living or rather 'not for looking with better body shape but for longer expiry date'.

after tasting Chef Lim's cooking, the audience were suitably impressed and hence the new membership program was launched. the earn chef Lim's credit through Poach Coon workout's was introduced to the yet to be convinced audience (namly the scouby Leongs). for every session you have with Poach COon, you earn 1 chef Lim's dish at the next cook out. average cookout is 6 dishes, so for the complete experience do sign up and complete 6 Poach Coon's workout.

Btw, the next cook out will be end July, and there are more than 6 weekends away...
