 24 Feb 2020   Posted by Cheryl Tay

First race of the 2020 season couldn't come fast enough - how are we already two months into the year?! Anyway, the Ironman 70.3 Bangsaen race in Thailand went on as planned despite the virus situation and I guess you could say I was lucky because it meant my training didn't go to waste. (Although why I would...

When I saw the medal that the full marathon runners received at last year's Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon (SCSM), I was like, "Wah! I want the medal, it's so big!" So yeah I went ahead to sign up for this year's SCSM and I got the medal (a bloody hard-earned one)... but not without first completing...

After completing the full distance at Ironman Malaysia last year, I decided I would only do the half-distance this time (phew I'm glad I did lol). Coming into this race, a large part of me wanted to get it over and done with. The past few months have been quite busy with work and I’ve been tired that...

Volvic Volcanic Experience 2019: My first trail race

 01 Jun 2019   Posted by Cheryl Tay

I knew that trail running is another beast to be tamed altogether, but when I was given the opportunity to take part in the Volvic Volcanic Experience (VVX) - a 25km race with 1,000m elevation in France - I was like, YASSSSS I'M IN. It was gonna be – and it was – a huge challenge but that’s what...

After my first time racing in Danang in 2017, I didn't want to race there again because I had a bad race and it scared me off. But I went back again last year (had bike trouble) and then did it for the third time last Sunday. LOL!! Aren't we suckers for punishment sometimes? I guess I had some unfinished...

You know, I think this is the most chill I've been for a race, because I was struggling to find the motivation after coming off a high at Ironman Langkawi. I think it was good because I wasn't as gan chiong as I usually am, but man, the race certainly challenged me greatly. Tri-League has been...

Ironman 70.3 World Championship 2018, Nelson Mandela Bay

 11 Sep 2018   Posted by Cheryl Tay

This race certainly took a lot out of me and it was a very humbling experience on all counts. The race was tough, the toughest I've raced thus far and I was out of my comfort zone for the entire race  (taking 'Get out of your comfort zone!' to a whole new level!). I slipped into the dark place a few times...

Moments like these are precious and I hope to spend as much time as I can with my parents - I like how I can impromptu jio them out and they are always game to try food or go gai gai with me!

    Half my right butt cheek is bruised now (it's turn Half my right butt cheek is bruised now (it's turning black and purple) from denting the ladder in yday's silly home incident, but I would like to take a moment to appreciate this solid (heavy) thicc butt of mine... because it got me out of a bad fall situation unscathed.

Jokes aside, I do occasionally feel like my butt is too big, has too many stretch marks and too much cellulite, and it makes me not want to wear a bikini. I'll see other butts and be like, how come they have such a nice peach shaped ass whereas mine just looks like an overstuffed pillow.

BUT I brush these thoughts away quickly because I love this butt of mine, flaws and all. Poor ladder though!

    After setting up @rockthenakedtruthsg, I started t After setting up @rockthenakedtruthsg, I started to learn more about body image and I came to a realisation that the more attractive one is, the more likely he/she is insecure about their body.

You would think otherwise because they have a 'great body' with skinny legs, thigh gap, small waist, "11" abs, nice boobs (for girls), but they are actually not as confident as you think they are.

People would die for these bodies, people are dieting and doing stupid things to get this kind of body, but these 'more attractive' people are actually insecure about the very body society desires.

Why insecure? I spoke to some of them and they cited reasons like: Afraid to lose the body because they feel their identity is tied to their body, afraid they may not look like that one day, afraid they do not look good enough.

So my hope is that everyone will come to accept their body no matter how it looks, and not be afraid to be judged. I mean, who gives these people a right to judge you?

Your body, own it!

    Had so much fun at the @grityardsg x @jyanyogastud Had so much fun at the @grityardsg x @jyanyogastudio collab event today where we got to do a combo of HIIT then acro yoga, an opportunity to try 2 types of workouts in one session, to see how fitness can be translated across different activities!

I wanted @jyanyoga to base me just for ONE photo, but she ended up sending me into several moves, which scared me a little but with the help of @branstands, I got into a few poses so now I have a few photos to share. Yay!

To more of such collabs!!!

How has 2020 gone for you?
    Following my house revamp, it's now time for some Following my house revamp, it's now time for some deep cleaning. Since I've moved in 3.5 years ago, I've not done any deep cleaning so there is definitely work to be done heh.

The @surecleansg professional cleaning team came over to work on my home and I was so impressed with their cleaning! (You know you're upping your auntie level when you get excited seeing things get cleaned and get intrigued by these fancy cool machines.) You can swipe to see the before/after results!

For my bachelorette space of 600 sqft, they sent a team of 3 who worked on the place simultaneously. Altogether they took 4 hours for the Home Deep Cleaning and Disinfection; sofa and mattress cleaning are add-ons to the package. 

They also have their own products, like their own Germclean disinfectant that has silver ion technology and 24h residual disinfection and can last on surfaces for 30 days, which they used on my home AND you can purchase to use too.

Quote 'CHERYLTAYSG' to get 15% off with min. spend of $250 before GST. You can book on sureclean.com.sg!

    Who can say no to ice cream or froyo? And when it Who can say no to ice cream or froyo? And when it has NO SUGAR ADDED, that's even better.

@yolesingapore has opened their newest outlet at Vivocity and the ice cream and froyo served all have NO sugar added! Soon, the rest of the outlets will follow suit.

But hey, don't use this as an excuse to go mad on the toppings ya!

Use 'CHERYLxYOLE' to get $1 off their NO SUGAR ADDED ice cream and froyo at Yole Vivocity from now to 31 December.

P.S. the photo wall damn cute!

    Home revamp completed! 🥰🥰🥰 I've been spen Home revamp completed! 🥰🥰🥰 I've been spending a lot more time at home this year, which gave me the push to make some improvements to the house so I can be more comfortable at home.

It's been 3.5 years since I moved in, but I've mostly just treated this as a house, somewhere to stay, and not really put the effort to make it a home home.

When I first moved in, I wasn't keen to do up the house much because I felt that I might get married one day and move out, so why bother to spend money? So I only added a counter to separate the kitchenette from the living area, and set up my bike trainer next to the sofa.

These made the house quite cluttered and it just got messier and messier over the years as I accumulated more stuff, and was often too tired or busy to clear up. I mean, it was just me and I don't invite friends over, so I let the mess manifest.

Finally, I decided to revamp the place and I'm glad I did!

I got rid of the counter, built cupboards and shelves into the walls for more storage space, got zip blinds so I could convert the balcony into a usable space, did vinyl flooring over the original glossy floor which is hard to maintain (and I was wearing bedroom slippers all the time), and got a dining table set that doubles up as my work station.

The result is amazing! I wish I could say this was a DIY project, but no, I engaged the services for the various things I did... after taking time to source for the best deals with value and quality!

The home feels like a home now and this might sound strange, but having more physical space actually has a calming effect on me and psychologically I feel better!

If you have any budget home decor ideas, please share! My only decor ideas are multiple stuffed toys and Hello Kitty memorabilia lol.

Now I'm looking forward to hosting friends at my revamped space I call home!
