Adventure Singapore 2006

Went to help out in Adventure Singapore 2006 today... It is an adventure race organised by Singapore Sports Council, and run by ACE Adventure... Was only activated last night by Raymond... Not sure how he got involved, but anyway, yeah... Think he was also called in at the last minute too...
My station was this Tyrolean Line/Tower thing... Not too sure what it was until I arrived there this morning... And it's actuallysome horizontal traverse thing... Where ropes have been laid so that you can cross a crevice... Well, kind of a crevice... A really wide one... Hahaha...
Well, there was a lot of pulling of rope, tugging to tighten it so that when the participants went onto it, there wouldn't be so much slack... But well, after a few participants, especially the slightly heavier ones, and also with the rising tide of the day, most of them got wet! Hahaha...
Guess it was an eye opener for me... Been a long time since I got involved in such big events... Especially in terms of those that are adventure based...
Realised that I had so many friends, and there were so many people, who were interested in such races... Started to wonder if I were them, would I be able to complete the race... And thining about it, with my fitness level, I doubt so... Think I really need to start working out... Need to regain some firmness in my body, build up endurance and stamina... (Especially since I may be going diving again soon... Can't go flabby... Not nice liao...)
Met so many people there... There was Jameson, Dex, Jason Mak, Bryan, Goh Chuan Hwee, Alex Tan, Allen Tan, Poh Seng, Azmy, Jean... These are those that I can remember meeting... Then those who were there to help out and are organisers: Jeffrey ('boyfriend'), Jones, Raymond, Ronnie, Li Wai, Sherine, Ai Chin, Kenneth Chng... These are those that I know before today... Then some that I just met with today too... Wow... I'm impressed by the number of people that I know... But so what? They don't really know me what... =P
Anyway, will blog about this another time probably... Brother wants to play PS2 with me! =P
