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!  

Lemon Lime BittersIt 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!
