#drinkELO

The weather in Singapore is getting hotter these days, which means it is even more important to drink enough fluids and keep your body functioning well. With my pretty high activity levels from all the Ironman 70.3 training (of swimming, cycling and running) I’m doing, it’s important to stay hydrated all the time, even when […]

Grab x Tinder

So, I was part of a recent Grab x Tinder activation, which you most probably would know about if you are a Grab user. How the campaign works: For one day only between 11am to 4pm on Friday (19 May), you could log into the Grab app and click on the Grab x Tinder tab to […]

Race number 2.

I’m sitting here at my computer, trying to finish up as much work as I can before I leave for Danang tomorrow. Yes, it is time for my second Ironman 70.3 race. I know right – it felt like I just did my maiden half-Ironman race not too long ago, but no man, it’s been five […]
