Scale the Heights
My first marathon of the year! Or rather, it was my first Vertical Marathon in my life. I have never climbed 60 storeys continuously before. I believe there is a first time to everything and there is simply so much to try in life (excluding vices of course), which explains my excitement in experiencing anything new. The downside to the event is that the reporting time is 630am =(
Anyway I am really glad we all made it to the top of Republic Plaza last Sunday, we guys clocked around 14 or 15min. All I can say is that it is an experience which is ENOUGH, just ONCE in my life. That should explain the experience of climbing vertically. The 20-40 storeys portion is most arduous, where you start to see some light after the 45th storey, and it doesnt help at all that there are keepers located at random levels to try to provide limited encouragement (and probably sniggling in their hearts how silly these people are). No views at the 60th storey, just drinks and its down by the lift. Thats how fast the 15min of modest effort is diminished.
Looking fresh before our turn~
IN the midst of catching our breath~
Mission Accomplished~
Feeling still energetic after lunch at Amoy, some of us headed to Marina Barrage. My 2nd time there!
This picture makes me think how small and insignificant we are on Earth~
I like the meaning behind this "art piece"... What comes around goes around...
I need more spice in everything. More adventure. More experiences. Gimme gimme more~
