0550

Numbers for 4D ? Nope
That's the timing that I usually set on my handphone, 5.50am from Monday to Friday. Why set at 5.50am ?

• To go toilet ? Nope, do u set alarm for that ?
• To make milk for my daughter ? Nope. My daughter will go by her own timing,not mine.
• To go wet marketing ? Nope, only at times but just too early to go to a wet market at 5.50am. Most stalls are still packing and preparing for business. Messy
• To surf internet ? Nope, quite unusual.
• To watch tv programmes ? Nope, very unusual except maybe for some matches during the Football World Cup season.
• To prepare breakfast ? Possible but just a bit early and very tiring to do it everyday at 5.50am
• To read ? Nope. At times i do wake up a bit early naturally and decided to do some reading especially when i am fully awake.
• To distribute newspaper as second income ? 5.50am is too late to do so le.

If u are smart, U may have guessed correctly, I wake up to exercise at nearby neighborhood park and park connector. I will do brisk walking or slow jogging.

The challenge is always at the moment when the alarm "sings", struggling whether i should wake up for the workout or continue to sleep a little longer. The most sian part of it is when it starts to rain when i am about to go for the sweating.

The most important thing is not to disturb my daughter's sleep, else she will pester me and wanting to follow me. So I will set silent/vibrating alarm at 5.50am. The good thing about it is that i may miss the alarm at times, conveniently. Ha......

Walk home 3 times last week

Managed to walk home from office last week (from 3 nov 08 to 7 Nov 08) 3 times. Each walk lasted about 30 minutes. Feel very good to exercise and sweat especially after a day work in office.

Found a good way to sweat

I had a meeting at Tampines Changkat CC and decided to walk from office located at the Tampines Central to the CC as i still have some time for it. After the meeting, also decided to walk home from the CC as i am staying across the PIE. It will definitely cost more in terms of money and time to travel by taxi or public bus. On the way home, i realised that it was not that far to walk home and it can be as part of my execrise workout, about 25 minutes walk.


In fact, i have been walking to and from office before it moved to the present location in Tampines Central. Never think that such walking would help me physically until i went for my IPPT. I did pretty well for my 2.4km run though i din really train for it. The only physical activity that i do regularly was the walk to and from office. I was amazed of the result and realised that execrise can actually be just so simple and easy with good result.


I think it is time for me to start the walk again but from office to home only as it will be difficult to work with sweat the whole day.
