MooMoo's 1st 10km + 30 Floors ^=^

Today MooMoo had her 1st again... it's her 1st 10km + 30 floors.  It may be the 1st and the last too... Hahaha... Climbing stairs is really not for MooMoo... it's damn tiring and it's worse when it's after running 10km.  Anyway, MooMoo enjoyed her run today.  Thank God for the great weather! ^=^

MooMoo reached the race starting point before the start time today.  MooMoo managed to snap a picture of Marina Bay Sands with the dark blue sky before she headed to the starting point.

Everyone is busy loitering around at the starting point.  Some are waiting for the 10km run starting at 8:15am.  The ones doing the 10km + 30 floors' flag off is at 7:00am.

There was about 12 waves of the run starting from 7:00am with an interval of 4 minutes each.  The crowd was very well controlled and everything was very well managed.  Kudos to the organizer!!

It was damn funny when the Emcee try to get people to respond to him but everyone just kept silence at the starting point... anyway, he just kept talking away despite being ignored.  

MooMoo and her friend managed to start their run at the 5th wave at 7:20am.  MooMoo was going slow and steady throughout the whole race.  It was good that there were sufficient hydration stations with water and Pocari Sweat.  

The 'NTUC' building in the middle is the one MooMoo had to climb.  The 30 floors were pretty challenging after running 10km and the ventilation was not that good.  Therefore, we were climbing it with difficulty in breathing.  Hahaha.  Here's the starting point...

MooMoo was damn tired at 13th floor and really feel like stopping... but suddenly got this cute and funny guy behing MooMoo, keep motivating everyone on his way up.  Hahaha... he got MooMoo going all the way till 25th floor... and she decided to rest before she fainted.  After resting awhile, MooMoo slowly finished off her last 5 floors.  Really Sweat!! =p 

MooMoo's friend is really good at running but had problems with the stairs.  He is now phobia with stair climbing.  After the episode of climbing, he felt nausea and decided this is the last time he is joining any climbing event.  Hahahaha.

Here's MooMoo's finisher medal!! Another medal to add to her collection... but this one is a really small and very light medal.  MooMoo's friend was complaining on the medal... after all the hard work with the climbing, he is not very satisfied with the medal.   Hahaha... ^=^

Here's the goodie bag, with a shoe bag, towel, free gifts and some vouchers. We were also given a 'Finisher-T' apart from the running T.  MooMoo quite like the 'Finisher-T'.

MooMoo ended her workout with a good stretch at Balance class but her abs are aching badly after the class.  Too much of abs exercises.  Hope will feel better tomorrow after a good night rest.  =p

* MooMoo starting to miss her weekends dy... Hahaha!! All the best to the coming week... GANBATTE!!! ^=^

Swim like a 'FISH'?!? ^=^

Today MooMoo skipped her usual favourite Balance class to go 'SWIMMING'.  It's been quite some time since she last go swimming.  Swimming is one of MooMoo's favourite activity other than gym-ing, cycling, dancing, etc.  MooMoo can actually swim a little but not very pro yet and she have problem threading water.  Therefore, she decided to sign herself up for swimming lessons.

This is her 1st swimming lesson and she kinda enjoyed it.  Initially, she got a shock when she reached there as there's only 2 girls in the class.  In total, there were 7 students.  Luckily, they all were pretty friendly so MooMoo didn't feel that shy after all.  The swimming instructor looks fierce but in actual fact, he's quite nice and pretty funny, cracking jokes all the time.

Today, we were taught the basics of swimming and our instructor tried to observe our level of water confidence.  He taught us the simple basics of breathing, floating, gliding and kicking.  Lastly, he observed our level of swimming ability.  Apparently, the whole class was quite on the same level so we all can move at a faster pace than expected, which is a good thing.

MooMoo were even given a welcome gift from the 'Happy Fish' swimming school, which is a silicone swimming cap.  MooMoo didn't use the cap as she don't like the tight feeling on her head and her hair is short so it's still ok.  This is MooMoo's new goggles without the degree.  It feels great swimming with good eyesight after LASIK.  Last time, MooMoo always look at blur vision when swimming due to her short sightedness.  Now, it's all clear.... ^=^

Hope by the end of the lessons, MooMoo can swim like a 'HAPPY FISH' with perfect strokes.... ^=^

Ash Wednesday

Today MooMoo skipped her weekly routine run to go to mass at church coz it's "ASH WEDNESDAY".  Well, you can go Wikipedia to get the full description of Ash Wednesday.  

In summary, it is the 1st day of Lent and it is 46 days before Easter.  It marks the starting of the penitential preparation of the believer through prayers, penance, repentance, almsgiving and self-denial.    It's called Ash Wednesday as it got its name through the practise of applying the ashes to believer's foreheads in the shape of a cross as a symbolic sign of mourning and repentance to God.  These ashes are made from the burnt palms that were blessed on the Palm Sunday of the previous year.  Lent is a time when we stop and assess how we're doing in our walk with God.  We mark ourselves with ashes as a "new beginning" at the onset of Lent, allowing the life of Jesus Christ to make us whole and new again.

It's just another opportunity to be a "BETTER" MooMoo this year.  Ganbatte!!! ^=^
