The 5K foam run with the girls
Getting excited on a Sunday because i'm heading down to SENTOSA for my 5K foam run with the girls. Im so glad to have them as my team-mates as one of our to-do list was to run a marathon together and YES we striked off from it.
Don't get deceive by this world globe, we weren't heading to USS or resort world, I just snapped it for show. The dumbest thing was to walk from the broadway to the sentosa entrance knowing that we could take a free monorail ride in but oh well, we just took it as a warm up exercise. Walking in from vivo can be a good choice as we get to see nice scenery around.
So what's foam run is?
You will be engaged non-stop throughout the entire 5km route of obstacles and foam. Get ready to be foamy on the craziest day of your life! Remember, nobody will be going home without this once in a lifetime experience at the beaches of Sentosa!
Runners will have to battle through numerous obstacles consisting of inflatable slides and obstacle courses. Water and foam are part and parcel of this race, so brace yourself! Fret not, you will be washed down at the finish point.
Whether you are an Olympic athlete or a casual walker, they are very pleased to invite you to take part in this exciting and highly-energized event. It is all about having fun with friends and loved ones, nothing else.
So their opening hour starts from 9am-4pm. So thankfully we chose 1pm time slot as the sun wasn't ungrateful to get ourselves sun burnt. But anyway, we were almost late for the race due to our dilly dally touring around sentosa.
So this is the layout of where we are going to run. Basically the whole race was a little disappointment. We felt that its super lame to run from the starting point and back again to the starting point. What makes the whole race interesting were the obstacles laid on. It couldn't say that too because the obstacles were so kiddo, not much of challenging enough for us. Perhaps an add point will be able to play with the foam. It feels like we are paying $58 for the foam.
Its pretty cool for the start off point where all of us have to gathering together and they started splashing the foam at our body. For that very few mins, we pushed the foam to one another, disturbed each other by pouring the foam at one another face. Sadly to say that, we are trying to make the race look interesting and fun.
Out of the sudden, a few of the Caucasian boys jumped into the frame and shouted ' SELFIE' while we were camwhoring. HAHA. They are adorable little bunch of kids.
We were very hardworking at the start of the race, literally did our jog but after a few kilometers, we decided to walk all the way taking it as a stroll in the park partly because we have to look after our dear Crystal who she had a muscle ached. Poor girl had her hockey match the day before and was literally so worn out after her friendly games.
This Meijun out of nowhere laid her whole body on the sand and asked Natasha and I whether we know about angel wings? So both of us looked at each other with a puzzled look and this girl started to explain her theory of 'Angel wings'. She laid on the fine sand and started doing some weird movement and swung her arm up and down. We were laughing at how retarded she was. In the end, she just wanted to show us the shadow of the angel wings. So now we know what is her ANGEL WING means.
HAHAHA, some retarded jump shots we attempted while using an Iphone. Basically we spammed shots when each of us started jumping like a monkey. Some really unglam jump that we have but its okay, its a joy to share to all of you (: That moment, we got stares from other strangers. They must be wondering and laughing at our stupid-ness.
One of my favourite obstacle that I came across. The rule was to run all the way and to test your balancing. So apparently as you can see, I'm a loser of balancing well. I ran 5 steps and BAK, I slipped and fall onto the mat. LOSER JOEY YO. HAHAHA.
The volunteer were cheeky enough to disturb us while we were running across by pouring the sea water at us. SUPER SALTY WATER YOU SEE! So annoying!
Last but not least, we were all drenched with sea water, foam, sand. Feeling disgusted but lucky there's a bathroom for us to shower or else we will be stinking like salty fish. But anyway, we enjoyed ourselves by doing lots of nonsense and retarded things. One of the good moments we have (:
What's next was to have a good late lunch after all the running, perspiring and running out of energy. We had ASTONS at resort world. So much of loving their Potato salad, I always and never fail to order that. The mac and cheese was another good option for a side dish, We had chicken as our meat just different sauce drizzling on it. With this plate of fuel, our energy level risen up and ended our day together by SHOPPING. Hell yeah, everywhere is having GREAT SINGAPORE SALES. Im going crazy over it!
Money please drop from the sky.
Till then.
