Morning Run@Marina Bay Sands

MooMoo had a good morning run herself on Tuesday morning before work around Marina Bay Sands. It was just a short run of 4-5km due to time constraint and the weather that day was great.

Lately, MooMoo had just been running a lot... more than her usual routine. Guess it's a way to release stress and challenge herself to go further... at the same time, train for her upcoming races.

Started running opposite 'Marina Bay Sands'....



Running in the morning is much better in the evening where it is pretty crowded with people... but amazingly, in the morning around 7am... there are already a lot of workers sitting around there... but lucky is safer in Lion City compared to KL...



Then, UP the stairs to the new 'Helix Bridge'... MooMoo had run through this bridge 4times, including the 2XU run.



The bridge is beautifully lighted up at night... this bridge is about 1 year old only.



Then, this picture is taken over from the Esplanade side...and the sky is getting brighter...



Look at how empty the route is... hehe... just happened that nobody was there when the pix was taken...

'Marina Bay Sands' in another angle.... One last pix before MooMoo complete the run and back to gym for shower...




* MooMoo felt that in every races she completed, she learnt and gained something through the challenges she went through... though at times, it's not easy...she's always trying to get better compared to herself and not to others...
