Running on Sunday at East Coast Park

Today i woke up early as i wanted to go running with my club. The run today was at east coast park. Here we are outside mcdonald's. It is 7 am.





There is also a pub at East Coast Park. I noticed the signboard which read Dublin 7024 miles. Wow! Dublin which is in Ireland is more than 7000 miles away! I didn't know that....





Today many runners came. About 20 of us came together for the phototaking. Uncle Chua was there, Uncle Tan, Uncle bernard, Uncle Kalai, Uncle Hei,Uncle Hei, Uncle Tan2, Uncle Darryl, Uncle Jo and his wife, Aunty Roda, Aunty Josie,Aunty Cindy. Some i don't even know... Uncle Han wee also came. So did Dr Bala, Prof Azhar, Mr Ow, Mr Azman. It was good to see them again. I have not seen some of them for 3 0r 4 months.





Here we are standing together as a group before the run.





It was a bright sunny morning. There was a group of people practising tai-chi by the beach.




There is even a man- made lake further up, about 800m away...








The man- made breakwater. Actually East Coast Park is on reclaimed land and stretches from Tanjong Rhu to Changi- about 15 kmlong and very very flat.





I ran about 6 km and went all the way to Bedok jetty before i u-turned back. After the run, i went to the beach and noticed this bird walking along the beach near the water..






Singapore is a sunny tropical island with coconut trees...



Some ships faraway at sea...




Some people are walking out on the jetty below.It was low tide so no fishing.




Talking together after the run...







Running on the sand...





We also enjoyed ourselves walking on the sand.


We spent more than 2 hours together.



East Coast Park is very lovely. I enjoy running there, with the sea breeze blowing. It is so cool.
