Remember your 1st step?

Remember your first step?  emoticon

What a fuss everyone made then!  you continued to walk right on through
childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood, but somewhere along the way, like
most adults, you probably stopped walking so much.

In fact, the percentage of adults who spent most of their
day sitting increased.  Sedentary
lifestyles have been held partially responsible for the excessive poundage.  hahahaha

Walking
is one of the easiest, least expensive, most enjoyable, and most profitable
forms of exercise.

All you need is ….

A pair of comfortable walking shoes

Socks to keep your feet dryer and blister
free

Comfortable clothing – dress for the
weather

A small bottle of water

Add a hat, suncreen and sunglasses on a
sunny day.
and desire ….

Suffice to say that walking is certainly good! Many SHCians
had enjoyed the walks and made new friends…. 
if I continued, there’d be no time for you to start walking!  

Monthly walks for SHCians are on Every 2nd Saturday of
the Month, once scheduled; Rain or Shine we Will be there!     emoticon

Thunder & lightning, we shall all, take cover, somewhere
in the vicinity to fellowship.

 

1st quarter of 2008, there will be 2 walks –

 

12Jan – Bishan Park & Lower
Pierce

09Feb – Gong Xi Gong Xi     (family
and friends “visitation walks”)

08Mar – Bedok Reservoir  (tentative)

**A week or 2 before each scheduled walk, relevant details
will be posted in SHC’s website.

Greetings fm the team – Charles Wee, Veronica Wong, Mary
Tan and ChristinaCL Chan

       We wish each of
you a

        Wonderfully
Blessed Christmas of Love, Joy & Peace and

         a Prosperous
2008 of Divine Health and Great Harvest!         

 

Be Cool!  Stay cool!      emoticon

    You know, you’ll get the full support from your die hard fanz – me.

    Can a walking shoe be also used as a dancing shoe? Can I ask you to dance with me for a while during our walk? Practice make perfect, you know?

  12. Hi Christina

    I’m interested in your monthly-walk program but may not be available to join your January walk. (Your date coincides with my church’s mission trip to Russia.)

    Also recalled a recent discussion on some gym and swim workouts. Would someone be spear heading that, please? I’m keen to get back into the water.

    Thanks,
    Eleanor

  13. Neely

    Yes, a very good idea. Unfortunately, just see your comment today, otherwise, I’ll call you last night and have a late night coffee with (but after that can you sleep?)

    I will like to reserve this tryst (am I using the wrong word here, ha ha) when I come back from the Korea trip, promise?

  14. Anly, you only go on tryst when you kwai kwai shu shu with someone’s wife hehehe! Not just for coffee – more hehehehehe! – thats my interpretation.

  15. Carly,

    Thanks for your interprertation.

    Is it “tryst” must be Kwai kwai shu shu, and how about besides coffee, we also take some cakes and bread, can this be the something “more”. Ha ha……..

    Sorry Neely, use a wrong word, let change it to “meeting”

  16. Wei wei,

Anyway whenever CCLC organised a walk, it’s so interesting and fun that attracts so many SHCians like ants. So I can continue…..Anly, I know you will have a good time in Korea lah. Carly, what is “tryst”? very “chim” leh. Ok lah, anytime if got time…we shall meet for a cup of coffee, teh, milo, sugar-cane… :)

    Ah Nee

    Ah Nee

  26. Thanks, Christina. I’ll watch for Dan’s posting then.

    Still awaiting for Russian visa approval. Unlikely that I’d wonder off since this is not a sightseeing trip. It’s a church mission trip and we are there to do God’s work.

    I’ll join your next walk when my schedule allows. I enjoyed myself at The Fort Canning Park walk and am looking forward to learning more from you.

    Blessings & Merry Christmas!

  27. Ah Nee,

    Looks like everybody’s gone to the moon because one message seems to be appearing every few hours. I think Lina is playing MJ now. Haha.

    One of our partners want to go dinner with his wife and their maid has gone home for Christmas so he ask me to look for baby sitter. Last minute where to find so I volunteer from 7.30pm until 11pm thats why no sound from me.

    So Neely, Dolly, Suely what thing you all say about tomorrow hah?

  30. Hi John,

    Have to do my posting here ‘cos the New Year’s Eve one is closed. You never know, I might spring a surprise on you during NY’s eve.
