Hello everyone!
I just ran the Nike Human Race earlier this afternoon! Completed the 10km in 64min, it's slightly slower than what I normally do but it's expected because there was such a great turnout there today! Couple of congestion along the route due to the narrow pathways and thousands of runners all trying to go thru them! Furthermore the route consists of numerous up and down slopes which made the run slightly more challenging. It was really fun to run through concerts along the way and through Boat Quay & Clarke Quay! I really wonder what was going on in the diners minds as this whole flood of red sweaty shirts bypassed them! A couple of the tourists were amused and joined in the fun by cheering us on! Really cute!
The Concert Festival after the race was a great way to wind up the whole event as the music boosted up the whole atmosphere. It's really a race I've never been in before and I must say I had a great time!
This wonderful guy - Aik Leong (I hope I spelt his name correctly!) was my pacer and he really took very good care of me during the run! Thank you!!!! He made sure I was keeping a good pace, ensured my well-being and kept me updated on my timing and distance! I really appreciated what he did for me! So happy and lucky to have such a great guy to pace me! Can't ask for a better one! :)
Bumped into Maria! (aka Evelyn Ng) We did the Life Story Ang Peng Siong ep together, so nice to meet up with her again! In between us is her friend running with her, Kimarie.
Giving Dan the Man our Lurve, Sweat & Blood!
With Ee-Lyn & Andrea.
After completing the race, everyone was given this finisher bracelet and it has "Singapore" engraved onto it! How special!

Hello!
Wanna sell off my HTC Touch Dual. Got it, tried using it, didn't like it... I guess I still prefer my phones being more conventional and less hi tech! And have a separate organiser altogether! Got it for $800+. It's a totally brand new Singtel set but without a receipt. Even the stickers on the phone is not peeled off...
I was gonna post it at $500 (neg) but to save time I will let it go at $450 nett.
Any takers?
Interested parties please email me at jessica.tan.com@gmail.com or leave me a comment here. :)

I've been training up for the Human Race coming Sunday and I did a 10km run in the Nike Lunars. Dunno if it's me, but the Lunars made running it a whole lot easier! I did my 10km run in a faster time than before. This time completing it in 62.5min. Almost 5min faster than my previous run! :D Love those shoes!!!
After a run, Mika will always run up to greet me no matter how sweaty I am! Really a darling... Here's a pic of her and me after my run with the Nike Lunars and many more cute photos of Mika!!!

She's just sooooo cute that U wanna squeeze her all day! If only she will stop chewing my socks! :(
Mika's 6 months now and she's getting more sociable as compared to when she 1st came home with me about a month ago. So, I decided to take a leap of faith and brought her to the Botanic Gardens for a walk/run. Didn't know how she would react in the car as it would be her 1st outing and sitting in the car without her doggie cage!
She looks like she's wearing a seat belt doesn't she? (oops! I hope no TP will stop me to fine this passenger who's not wearing a seat belt!!!)
Couldn't get a good picture of her running around Botanic Gardens cos she can't stay still and runs really fast! Like a mini torpedo darting around. And her natural hunting instincts kicked in when she saw birds there. She stalked, she aimed and she pranced towards them! At such vast speeds! I was really tired out by her sprints!
After her morning in the gardens, she was soooo tired that she came home and slept like a puppy....

Will try to get photos of her darting around Botanic Gardens and post them here!
That's all I've of Mika for now....

Pictures from the trial run!
Guess which foot is mine???
And this is the Nike Zoom Victory. I just ran 10km in them yesterday and completed the run in 67min. Don't know whether the timing is good or not! This Zoom Victory uses some wire technology to hold the shoe and makes it even more lightweight than normal! Amazing...
Back to more training sessions! *pant*

Hello!
I hosted a dinner party with my university friends, Lee Ann, Mika and Crystal.
That night, I made prawn paste chicken (which turned out a lil salty) and warm chocolate cake for dessert.
Joanne made Swedish Meatballs and Huixian ordered take out from an Italian restaurant at Rail Mall.
Enjoy the pics!
