So I’m back sooner than expected thanks to my special someone for bugging me to re-open my blog hehee. Well what have I been up to since 6th of November. Let’s seeeeee …. let’s start with the most recent news. 29 November 2006: My office has shifted to Red Hill! There’s still …
Philip conducted a free of charge 20m shuttle beep test on Sunday morning and six of us from sgrunners did the test. It’s basically running over a length of 20m in accordance to a series of beeping sound. Till date, this is a very accurate out-field test for VO2max prediction and …
