Me Time!

And it feels damn good to sweat it out.
And even better if there is some good makan place at the end of the hike.
Unlike kiddos, I am not a very sporty person though I do like the great outdoors. I am sorely lacking in the co-ordination department. One for my fave activity is walking or hiking and kiddos do indulge me in this activity. -
Even so,we are not always in army gear all the time.Most of the time,we are in shorts and shirt.We only train outdoors when weather conditions permits.
Made to hydrate all the time due to the hot weather.
Even when I organise matches for my weekend football team,I made sure the matches are from 5-7pm as to make sure both teams are not playing in unhealthy conditions. -

kept reminding her to drink water. cap, poncho, wet wipes all prepared. today would be a much better weather to hike.
But organiser cannot predict the weather right?
We are talking about organising and event that involves a lot of people. Transport needs to be catered. Programmes need to be arranged. Not something that they can say see today weather nice or not then we go. -

finally our army man here agrees. the person who organised the hike should have went yesterday.Even so,we are not always in army gear all the time.Most of the time,we are in shorts and shirt.We only train outdoors when weather conditions permits.

3 paracetamol tablets within 12 hours is simply too much. it's not like training the girls before enrolling for NS. -
janet88:
yup...but had to go back to school for dismissal. she told me she could have walked home since it's near.[/quote]
So she basically hiked home.
The Macritchie to Bt Timah trail is mostly shaded. There are spots where it may be like an open field without shade but that is just for a short stretch. It is about 2hrs track depending on how fast or slow you move and where at Bt Timah the hike ends.
BT exit is somewhere near Rifle Range? -
MyPillow:
It is still tough,no exceptions for anyone from any generation.Just that we are not that unwise to train from 12-2pm esp in the current weather.I did not say training has became less tougher though.When it is time to train hard,get into the sun,sand and the sea,I expect the same from my men too.FishFingers:

If you want to be elite,then must go through everything what we throw at you.
Cannot reveal too much.Every vocation will have specific physical requirements.
About your last question....Only the best of the best makes it.Not everyone can suka suka saunter in.There will be washouts along the way. It is not exactly summer camp. -
