Week 2 - Nat T&F

Congrats to Samuel and Wan Ping for qualifying for the finals in their respective events [800 m C Boys, 1500 m and 3000 m C Girls]. Actually, all of you who went and ran your best deserve a pat on the shoulder whether you qualify or not. [Abloy don't deserve a ruler... yet.] Tough competition @ Nat T&F so nevermind the position, the main competitor to beat first is really yourself; your PB!

While the majority would not be able to support the morning races, do try to go for the afternoon ones and events coming Friday. [Then again, Shawn Nah was one of a handful who turned up to support the 4 x 100 m relays yesterday ... but was mia from school today – sick?]

CCA Tee

So the colour and material have been decided - please submit your designs and/or tagline to Shanice and/or Hazimah by 17th June else just be prepared to pay up (without irrelevant comments) =)

Cost of CCA tee might be subsidised - personalisation (e.g. name on sleeve) generally not recommended as it adds on to the cost - can always DIY; sew on the name or write with permanent ink...?

To start the ball rolling:
I belong ... I run
Our business ... we run
Keep running

As you can see, I'm rather stuck with 'run' for now so if you've anything more constructive, do suggest.

~neli neli boo boo you cannot catch me ~

Btw, X Trail Challenge - Congrats to all who went and won, had fun and/or been scammed (by the categories, prizes ... ).
