SanDura Fun Run 2012

What started as a suggestion from Edmund later became a reality, as on Sunday 7:30am, about 30 of us found ourselves outside SanDura Sports prepping for a 15km leisure run which would lead us through Toa Payoh to Bishan Park and back, in support of Din and SanDura Sports. =)






After a quick warmup and safety briefing conducted by Beng Leong and Din, we were on our way, some of us doing the 15km run while others trying out for the 8km distance instead.















From the pictures, I think you can tell that everyone were in high spirits. Babe did 8km and even she was very independent and running at a decent speed! The weather was fantastic and it made running for 2 hours a lot easier than expected. I was worried it might rain but thankfully everything stopped before we started the run =)


Other sights and sounds along the way included construction, traffic, children in the park, as well as this random photo of a guy fishing by the canal with a net! With a net, I'm guessing he's fishing for food, not leisure, wonder what's there to eat there. =\


Also, we bumped into some of the runners from Safra Toa Payoh, who were also running along the same route that morning, it was all fun and cheers as they passed us at the traffic lights, I think some of the runners knew each other, me being green just smiled and cheered. =)




The run took about 2 and a half hours to complete, wow that's long!

Am glad that the turn out was good, and that more importantly everyone seemed to enjoy it. Most definitely an enjoyable run, we need to do more of these in future!
