I havent seen the official timing but i reckoned i lost to the 40 year old oldman.
Im gutted. Serious. At 30, im a decade younger and in the prime of my running career. After a detailed analysis of my race while facebooking with my friends earlier... im offering the following as an explanation of the very poor run.
1) The very new and heavy asics shoes.
Compared to my previous NB shoes.. they weigh a ton.But alas, i never did run this fast in those NB shoes...
2) The Ba Kut Teh and Sushi dinner i had yesterday.
I was told to carbo load. The very smart me figure that what better way to carbo load than to eat rice... lots of it and i topped it off with fatty chunks of pork ribs and fatty salmon sashimi.
3) The Bonjour Bread breakfast.
Told joyce to buy gardenia liao. Enough said.
4) H TWO O.
Told joyce to buy 100 plus (which incidentally is the official sports drink for AHM) but she brough H TWO O. Enough Said.
5) Picking up PKH.
PKH needed a lift.. and that extra ounce of energy to drive to his house could have cost me my race.
Oh well... Old Man, see you at SCM. I'll quit running if i lose again. Humph!
Regards
Whiny.

LTA holds communication sessions with Jurong East residents
By Shaffiq Alkhatib Posted: 11 September 2010 1930 2010 1930 hrs CNA
Just the other day, there were lots of confusion over the closure of the JE station over the weekend to facilitate expansion works. This was so even after numerous reminders and announcements across all media.
So they did more. How much more is enough?
Surely, LTA is not going to distribute flyers to all the residents in Singapore and that 1000 residents of JE arent the only folks who used the station.
Frankly, resources should be channelled to the right places and not wasted this way.

Cut Waste, Create Capacity, Give me my weekends.

Young Sikh Association condemns US pastor's Quran-burning plans
By Claire Huang Posted: 10 September 2010 1829 2010 1829 hrs CNA
Ok. So the US Pastor is seeking his 2 secs of fame by announcing some silly tactics that has gripe the world for the past 2 days.
Lots of folks have come forward to condemn the action and call it a dangerous act. In fact, Obama contemplates calling this Quran burning Pastor so that he would not carry out the act.
But seriously...
Is it going to change the world?
There is one childish pastor trying to seek attention. The world is his circus and we are his audience.
The real damage is being done as these 'whose who' comes forward and condemn the act.
Surely, Islam is more than the Quran and Christianity is more than this pastor.
Regards
Amused.

Cross-sharing of Pay-TV content delayed to Q1 next year
By Imelda Saad Posted: 01 September 2010 1721 2010 1721 hrs CNA
Overheard at the Coffee joint near my house.
Red Provider : Im going to charge you $500,000 per wrestling pay per view!
Green Provider : Thats too expensive!! If i pay you that, i must charge my subscribers $20 per pay per view! Nobody is going to watch it!
Red Provider : Tell you what.. I promise that my charges would be at least $20 per pay per view. If you wanna charge more, thats your business. I will set my base subscribtion at $20.
Green Provider : PROMISE? Alrite then! Im sure if i bundle it with some useless add ons, which makes the plans confusing to compare, it might just work.
Red Provider : Alrite! We have a deal!
