My body is still emitting the heat from this afternoon’s Dragon Boat training. Training started at 3.15pm, at the height of the afternoon sun.
Last week’s training was tough I said, this week, we did 8x 800m races. This in preparation of the Singapore Dragon Boat Festival on 26 & 27 June. No, I’m not taking part in the race, but the team is, so we trained together. It’s definitely good strength and endurance training for a newbie like me.
The cherry of the day was chicken curry with nann and briyani rice, on top of the usual beer that is. Of which I had none.
The buzz from the training helped me with my little personal challenge. Listen up.
NO ALCOHOL ON A NIGHT OUT AT WALA!
It helps that they make a more than decent Lemon Lime Bitters, and Wala Freeze which is simply grapefruit juice with lemonade. These are my alcohol alternatives.
And I realise, I can still have fun without alcohol! Think the training has given me a high, thus the mighty good mood. :)
I’m inspired by a pervy friend to try this out. It’s tough, but with a little more determination, impossible is nothing. If you’re reading this, thanks for the positive influence!
Have a lemon lime bitters on me… Cheers!
