Over the weekend..
I woke up early last Saturday and headed down to East Coast Park for some inline-skating. Did over 1 1/2hr of blading. Good workout for me. I had to visit a construction site after that. I created a slight commotion amongst the workers when I arrived in shorts & training tops. Had to rush to the washroom a quick chance of clothes. heh heh..
My hubby was somewhere around ECP in the morning too, on his racer. Will start my cycling training soon and hopefully I'll be able to join him on the roads early next year. I definitelty can't keep up with him right now.
Anyone who knows me will know that I'm definitely not a sports kind of person. So why all that interests in skating and cycling all of a sudden? Well. I've been gradually putting on weight. I had no less than 4 people telling me that. I was even asked whether I was expecting. That does it!!
My hubby has lost quite a bit of weight since he started cycling, about 5~7kg, I think. His health has improved too. He hardly get sick nowadays. Bryan is following my laid-back lifestyle and is also putting on quite a bit of weight. I have to set a good example for the kids.
I don't really like to exercise but I dislike taking pills too! Not to mention the risks involved with slimming pills! (Remember Andrea De Cruz's liver failure?) So I guess I don't have much of a choice. Anyway inline skating is rather fun.
I went through the basic inline skating lessons with Skateline at ECP Carpark F1. No time to take up the more advance techniques. So right now I only know how to execute a heel-brake. Doesn't look too cool, man! Will see if I can get someone to show me the T-stop. Now that's the nice one! I'm currently staying off the steeper slopes. Don't wanna fall. At my age, my bones will probably disintegrate upon impact with the ground.
