Run for a greener future - Every little bit counts !

The NTUC income run 350 organise by the young ntuc income aims to raise awareness to lower the carbon footprint to 350 parts. The run was on 5 Apr 15, Sunday.
I use to think one man's effort is not enough to help care for the earth, nevertheless every little bit counts. Hopefully we are not too late. Sit and up and take notice of the environment climate impact around you.

1. Please don't waste n. (Where n can be water, electricity, food etc)
2. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle as much as you can , there is a 4th R, Repair there is many other variant as well f- Refuse, Renewable  etc.
3. Execute to 1 & 2.

Take action. For example, refuse a bag at the shop if you really don't need. You can do your bit.I have a colleague who shares brochure and does not take additional brochure if it is not necessary.

My strategy for IPPT gold

The new NS IPPT scheme comprising of push-up, sit-up and 2.4 km is in effect from April 2015.

I have been waiting for the new scheme to be launch since last Oct14 and I require at least 80-85 point to achieve gold. Push-up is going to be my weakest station.

2.4km running and sit-up standard are very clear,
for push-up check out this link: Standard-pushup example 

Push-up standards

1)Arms fully extended

2) Back straight

3)Arm parallel as you lower to the ground

One possible strategy is as follows:

25 push-up/minute – 13pts,  

44 Sit-up/minute – 22pts,

2.4km in 9.10 minutes – 50pts.

Sum: 85 pts

At present:

18-20 push-up/minute – 11 pts,  

35 Sit-up/minute – 19 pts,

2.4km in 10:10 minutes – 43 pts.

Sum: 73 pts which amount to a silver

I require at least 12 points more.

Hopefully in one month’s time I can improve to gold.
