The long wait has eventually ended.
Physique 2007 Race Event had finally arrived.
Everyone can finally put on the Physique T–shirt
Yeah! Haha a new T-shirt! =)
Total journey for the race was 30km.
Starting point was Orchard Youth Park.
While set out timing was around 12pm.
My team consists of
Liang Liang, Lis & Wen Qiang.
And another team of friends
Anson, Denise, Jun Yuan & Ricky.
Got our first Clue card
Written was to head for Planet Marina.
Everyone move out and suddenly a distinct split.
One group headed straight into Oxley Rise
While another half turned left to Oxley Road.
We followed the left crowd
While the other team headed straight.
Nearing Marina area,
A minor detour occurred due to road construction
And we lost some time in the process …
Reached station one
Task given was cycling,
3 laps around Marina Bay.
Each lap was abt 4.9km
Hence the total of another 15km completed.
Got our second Clue card
To report to the pond in Marina city park.
Luckily this time it was not very far away.
Dun have trek so long after the cycle
Our poor legs and feets lolx!
Task this time was to get all wet.
Got our third Clue card
To head for Marina Promenade Park Beach.
In our soggy shoes we pushed on.
But our clue card was wrongly orientated.
By the time we realize our mistake
We had miss the original location by some distance
Quickly we did a U-turn to get back on track.
More time was wasted...
Task was to double kayak a total of abt 5km
Not too sunny with the wind blowing at us.
Occasional waves occurred too.
Installing some surprises for us along the way.
Getting more drenched is a sure thing
This time even our bags got wet
Luckily my phone was in safe keeping
In Wen Qiang zip lock bag.
Got our forth Clue card
To navigate to the field at Parkview Square.
We went about following the map
That finally was really helping us properly
Task was to transport a load to a given location
The’nice’ looking load was a killer
Weighing god knows how much.
Can easily say it exceeded 40kg
Luckily, there were tubes given
To act as make shift rollers.
Got our fifth Clue card
To make our way to the 6 lvl of Shaw Towers
Which was also our final station.
Our group arrival time there was 4.45pm
Thought we could finally try out abseiling
But to our dismay we could not
As too many group was already on the queue
and the race will end at 5pm.
Instead we were given our last Clue card
To gather back at the orchard youth park
Where the finishing point was located.
Everyone was a little down
But thinking back now,
We did complete our aim of 30km
Except we din get to do abseiling.
The chance for abseiling will come again…
*The other team did much better
Returning an hour before us with 7placing
Way to go ya. Can aim for top 5 next time le =)
