this year is gonna be a very sporty and active year with the CDJ's Cup running round the months with different kinds of sports, competing across division in the Subordinate Courts.
Frustal Soccer got a head start in April 2012, which i did not participate in it because i can't play soccer haha. i don't wanna get whack by the ball. and initially Badminton tournament should be following up next in May, but due to the Hougang election, it was delayed till July, so Cross-Country got pushed forward to May instead.
the Inter-Division Cross-Country was held on a Friday afternoon, and yes, we got an excuse to be out ready by 5pm. you know, it's pretty hard to organise a running event, we need to plan the route, we need manpower to involve in the usher point, water point, we need to activate ambulance to standby too. seriously, most of the staffs are involve that evening.
the preparation..
the road Marshal..
the water point marshal, ready to head off to the 2.5km checkpoint by lorry
introducing my Finance male runners, Aston and Mark
representing Division: CCSD
me and Aston
waiting to start off.
yeah. our CCSD Division
Khai Ling, the overall in-charge of the Sports Committee,
giving a safety precaution speech before we start
and... poof!
CHOING AHHHH
and the running route is super power, just the beginning only, we have to overcome that deadly bridge. and by the time we climbed over, already almost out of breath. the route is from SubCt to Floating platform and u-turn back , and they have so many up and down slopes. such a killer!
and i was so looking forward to the one and only one water point over at the u-turn point, which was around 2.5km. but by the time i reached there, no water point was set up at all. in the end, ran back disappointed. WHERE IS MY WATER?! dehydrating already!
and yea by the way, while running on my way back, i saw a few veteran subct runners. really have the sportsmanship, although they are slow, and can't catch up with the youngs, but they still struggle to reach the u-turn point and back to Subct. big claps to them!!
yes, finally i'm back!
didn't manage to win any hahaha
competitors too strong already. but i managed to come back in one piece
yeahh, quickly grabbed a can of 100 plus and drink. i was complaining to Bala how come there was no water point at all, and hilariously, he said that because we the runners reached there even earlier than the water point Marshal. LOL. they were in the lorry, and was caught in a jam while on the way there. such a joke! haha
but then, got to make some noise for the Men and Woman under 35 category. especially for the Men under 35 category, the top 3 was from our CCSD division. woohoo!!!

runners and supporters from CCSD Division.
anyway, the overall winner for this Cross-Country was actually the Civil Division. we lost because we totally have no runners to represent both the male and female veteran category. so we scored zero for that 2 categories which pulled our overall score down.
awww, such a waste. anyway, it's okay, we still have a few more tournaments to add on to the scores hahah. next up, Badminton tournament in July. whee whee!
i didn't expect the Sports Committee to come up with printed CDJ's Cup towel
and DIY running bib.
so cute. awesomely great efforts put in by the Sports Committee!
thumb up!
