Joining the Athens marathon was because it was just nice a week after the Cyprus Oceanman. The cost of the this race is 100 EUR, I think this is the standard price for most marathons and events in Europe. Being the origins of marathon, I thought it must be one of the bucket list for most runners.

The first mass physical race in Singapore since the Covid 19. I actually joined the Yellow Ribbon Courageous where you run 21km and cycle 60Km in a certain time frame to be able to get the physical race.
Aiya Napa is a town in Cyprus, it is mainly a summer holiday place. Thus during the November period, it is quite a quiet place as temperature starts to turn cold.
As usual, the way I search for races especially for Thai races is like doing some Goggle research. Since the Devil trail got cancelled, I began to look around for some trail race to kick start my engine again. But I also do not want to kill myself. So elevation is also a key.
18 Sep 2022, was called to do this by Jac. I wasn’t confident but since there was a free bib and sooner or later, I would need to do the Bintan Iron man, so I thought I might as well give this a shot. Just to see whether I am up for it.
As part of the National Day effort, Active SG organised a series of sporting activities under the name of Pesta Sukan. There were many categories of sporting activities which participants can sign up for inside the Active Sg app. This year I signed up for the swimming and cycling round island adventure. For the swim, it was competitive with the usual competitions from real swim meets.
After doing the 28 loops round MR for the MR 25 challenge, I was actually quite tired about doing trails. But this was one race I thought maybe worth the while to do as I really did not feel like looping anything anymore and Mountain Goat was another loop race.
This was a postponed race from 2020. Was really looking forward to it then as I promised to join with my Indonesian running friend, Jusuf, whom I met in Tahura Marathon at Bandung. We had always wanted to meet again for a race in Indonesia and when we finally wanted to do this, Covid hit in 2020.
Done it at the end of June, last year I did it for the super biathlon to go up Bukit Timah hill. I did not plan to do it this year, however, Jac , a good friend of mind want to go for the speed. So we both decided to go ahead for it. Aeiroman is a triathlon event by the Running Guild, it has various distances and so far done virtually.
So this time round we did a bigger scale operations. Mainly because Katie, one of our swimmers, is going back to UK as her husband got repatriated.
