Had my third run with Gei Gei Running Club today and today’s theme is inspired by the Car-Free Sunday. Kars-Not-Free, ‘Kars’ means leg in Hokkien. They always have an interesting theme for their runs and encourages their runners to participate in their cosplay by giving prizes to the best dressed. And today’s best dress award obviously goes to Mr Spiderman! Sibeh effort! Really nice and sporting! ??? I’m not so hardworking to make a car out so I’ll just go with their theme of wearing either green or yellow ? And I love their creativity to come up with car plate bib lah, so cute! ? Had my bib number as 40 as it stands for my name Si Ling, which as pin yin stands for 40 ?
The morning is good. Though we saw lightning and the sky is dark and cloudy but very fortunately it didn’t rain. What’s best is the Sun is hiding too. Everyone is friendly, it was 7am and we are not in bed still sleeping but going around saying hi, taking pictures and ready to run.
It was held just nice on the same day as Car-Free Sunday in the CBD area and it was my first time running in Car-Free Sunday too! It’s nice seeing many people so active and are living a healthy lifestyle in Singapore. Be it running, brisk walking, cycling, roller blading, skate boarding, wheeling, hover boarding etc ??
It’s a nice 10km run, love the route. Starting and ending point is at Nicoll Highway MRT station. Many of the runners saw otters feasting on fishes and playing around in the water like so shiok while we were running back near the Singapore Flyer.
I’ve always been a slow runner but recently have been trying to improve in my speed. Chasing the elites for a while then can’t tahan anymore and run my own pace already ?
Thankful to Gei Gei Running Club, enjoys my runs with them so far, they really take care of the runners with them well. And also thankful to the volunteers and photographers who are not only nice but fit ?? also to run with such heavy cameras and help the runners to takes nice photographs ? These are all beautiful memories captured!
I’m glad that I started running because through running and running events I’ve met all these friends and finding inspiration and motivation through them in no matter whether is it in running or becoming a better person in life ?
