A series of short bike, run and swim during the Hari Raya Puasa holiday week. T100 was held in Singapore on 14 April and for that the Purpose sports company held a few free and fun workouts to get the local participants to join and gear up for the event.
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.
Jac, a swimming friend turned crazy cyclist, just came up with this idea for the Round Island with a couple, Nigel and Katherine as they never did it before. I also never did a round island just maybe a half island. Jac got 2 other folks to join us.
It did not occur to me to do this although I know eventually I will have to , if I want to do a Ironman 70.3. For this race, you will need to clock a 90KM ride which till date my longest ride is 70km.
To speak the truth I am not a good tri person. I really cannot ride well and do not know the technicalities of riding. But there is one thing that I enjoy about riding is the speed and freedom it gives me which running sometimes does.
