Thanks to Ben, I managed to make it in time for the start of the race. Ben, thanks for the cab.

Well, it was quite tiring and now, i'm having a foot massage cause I ran too much and my shoes are not fitted for running. My foot palm hurts!

Well, next outing is still W.I.P for now.

I feel that it will be better to have groups of 4 or 5. Also, I think the race should not involve the CBD as the CBD is rather confusing. I think it is a good idea and fun to have the 143's BC timesheet as a clue.

Then whats the point of having a race without places you dunno. and I can tell you, the CBD is relatively easy to navigate as compared to Jurong (as in industrial estate) and private housing estates.

If there's going to be a next amazing race, I hope it will involve the East, since we have already been involved in the West this time.

I believe the organisers somewhat had more west locations because of people like you who stay in the east who seldom visit the west. So what makes you think they will have more east locations the next time round? Maybe go Sungei Khatib Bongsu or something..

Hougang Central is more like the 'border' of the North East and Central.

Then why must classify Hougang Central as 'East'?

Really laughed at that part.

Ok, when SBS2695H says 'East', it means his neighbourhood. Any other places OUTSIDE his neighbourhood, is not East.

For your info,

If you refer to government weebsites, Hougang is usually under East or NorthEast. Hougang is no where at the central.

Er....

I knew what happened. I was sitting while Ngjy22 was looking for 989 service guide and then, we all didn't realised that the guide is actually right on where we were sitting. I really laughed out loud at the silly mistake my team did. All that while, Ngjy22 have past us 2-4 times and we all look like jialat already when we found it.

Lol. And we kept suggesting that you all do a substitute so that someone may just walk one round and see it. :lol:
