My Relay Run
I signed up for PaceSetters Mizuno Relay run with my fellow Chief's Original BootCampers (COBC) and teamed up with the Tigers of our team "053" consisted of Ms, Norliza Affandi, Letch Sina & James Fong.

There were few other teams from COBC that participated in this relay whom are John Chua, Lilian Lee, Shearling Toh, SiewPeng Wong, Amy Ho, Rienna Choo, Maslina Ahmad Ismail, Umesh Narasimhaiah, Brittany Lim, Eric Chang Dixon Thum, Tan Wee Liam, Advance Tan, Andrew Phang, Lorrine C Xavier & Ali Rahimi Ferdosinezhad.  (Apologized if I missed out anyone here)

The relay was exciting, route was challenging, organizer was well-organized, great sportsmanship from runners and the adrenaline was exceptional.  Most importantly, we share our passion in running & cam-whoring together as a Team of Soul-Achievers.
