National Library Vertical Marathon 3 July

Not exactly a tough vertical marathon..just a promotion event.

2 competitive guys in front of me, was a fun event anyway.. :) The Everest women team gave a few tips on climbing (staircases) before starting.

5th to finish, getting my camera ready for some quick snaps... my legs felt weak for a moment.

Block of flats...

The participants started coming up.... by the way this place was not open to public.

The view of Suntec City (Conventional Halls), Marine Bay Sands (check my earlier post on the visit to MBS) and the Singapore flyer, on a cloudy afternoon.

Esther, Joanne, Peh Gee.. they conquered Mt Everest!

Had fun in the vertical marathon, it was a fun event, climbing the 90 metres building, 16 floor x 2 (as the height of each floor is supposed to be taller), at around 13 floor, my thighs ache and was a bit out of breath, but nothing serious, not used to climbing stairs :)

Well, 3 of the Everest Women Team attended the event.. I could see there is a very strong bonding between the 3 women, they had been training together for the last few years and team mates in conquering the 8850m Mt Everest, very close bonding & amazing friendship!
