SCSM2014: 10km Race As I sit with my throbbing feet up, I am reminiscing about this morning's SCMS event.  Having had the worst run so far, I am not the least bit surprised. Returning recently from a 40th birthday party bash in Boracay, Philippines, my training suffered significantly (meaning I didn't do any).  As...

I is nervous. Have I prepared enough?  Will I hit the Wall?  Can I finish in a respectable timing? This will be my first REAL run with my human companion (PS. she will henceforth be referred to as "The Human").  Yeah sure, I attended the Hello Kitty Run ("HK Run") at...

The man is here in Singapore this weekend, he's running Stan Chart with us all on Sunday. So I thought it would be great to finish the series of running heroes with a real legend of the long distance scene. Haile was born in 1973, one of ten children in Asella,...

The Maze Challenge Asia was a world's first running event that featured a giant complicated maze with physical obstacles in its course. It...

Ho ho ho! Christmas came early for Singapore this year! If you were at The Promontory @ Marina Bay last Saturday evening, you would have double- checked your calendar and thought that Christmas was yesterday instead. Decked in Santa-lookalike race tees and Christmas hats, thousands of Santa Run For Wishes’...

With the countdown for Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore coming to single digit (7 more days to go!), one participant at SCMS this year drew my attention. Mr Chan Meng Hui, or known as Uncle Chan to some, is seeking to complete his 100th marathon at SCMS this year. This makes Uncle Chan the oldest...
