My Sunday Funday outing (a.k.a Sunday catch up with friends) this week proved very fruitful in more ways than one… It started with a 10km run and weights at the gym, a hearty but healthy breakfast at Boomarang Restaurant in Robertson Quay, ventured over to Bugis street markets and then found our way back to Clarke Quay for the afternoon.

It was here we stumbled across the loudest, fun-loving group of people obviously having a great Sunday Funday as well. I’m not completely sure how it happened, but before we knew it - we had literally been abducted and then appointed as ‘the new recruits’ for one of the local dragon boat racing teams… and…. then stumbled across some other great people that invited us to try out the Hash running group in Singapore. Two fantastic ’scores’ in my opinion - the best ways to exercise - with great people that mix fun, fitness and socializing all into the one activity!! So …. once the next two hectic weeks are over with work, i’ll try my hand at dragon boating and try to keep up with some of the local runners. I’m the biggest fan of group sports.

I think it’s great to commit to an activity where the group can motivate each other to stay active, but most importantly - have a great time doing it!

For 10 days starting next week, Xndo will have a cafe lounge at The Osim roadshow at Takashimaya to sample our food and drinks. I’m so excited (but super busy) and looking forward to this fantastic event.

However, first I’m off to Phuket this weekend to unwind, relax and recharge the batteries to get me through those 10 days. Somehow, in between all of that - I am anxiously awaiting the SAFRA run. I’m as ready as I’ll ever be. Keep you posted.
