Hey there trackers!

it has been such a long time since the last post! anyway, lots of updates to make with regards to holiday activities, as well as camps and competition results.

[1] National Schools Results

the results for this year's national schools have yet to be announced, so here are the long awaited results:

www.results.schoolsports.sg/sectrack/ssc_home.php

(click on the link, click "by school" and find SAJC.)

i'm a little lazy to type it all out, so click the link to find out! hahaha. on the whole, we performed rather well this year! three final spots for the 4x100m and 4x400m boys relays, as well as shawn's individual 100m race. well done team! juniors, it's up to you to perform even better for next year's nationals! gotta train hard yea?

[2] Track Camp

a little saddening piece of news, but there won't be a track camp this year. this is because the teachers will be overseas, thus it will be impossible to hold a camp since supervision by teachers is required. chalets are fully booked as well! but fret not, planning for a line up of activities during the june holidays to make up for it is underway, stay tuned for it!

(P.S hey juniors, how about organising a december camp? hahaha.)

[3] Bare Your Sole 2010

Bare Your Sole is a barefoot charity walk, to support the children in poverty. since many of these children cannot afford footwear, they have to walk barefoot over treacherous flooring such as rubble and broken glass. thus, in this walk, everyone will be completing it barefoot in support of these children who have to suffer each day.

its on the 6th of June (Saturday) and the walk will kick off at 8am. there's lots of food and games and stuff there as well, so it'll be fun! and the price is not fixed, it's just how much you want to donate. however, they recommended $10, which should be within out limit eh? and it's at east coast park btw. and there's a free "bare your sole" t-shirt!

national sprinter Calvin Kang will be there! (not that anyone really cares hahaha.)

it's a great experience and it would be great if we could go down as a team as well for this event. anyway, those who are interested, please text me (Hewei) by the 22nd of May so that we can register for the event.

alrighty, that's about all the updates we have so far. team dinner's coming up, so keep the first week of hols (the extended lessons week) free! more updates coming to you soon :)

Hey guys!

As you all know, the holidays are ending, and that means another rough school year is coming up again, especially this year being the 'A' level year. So before school reopens, let's have a little enjoyment! Yep, some of you might have guessed it, we're having a chalet! and it's at..

our dear island of sentosa!

i think this is where our chalet's at. ha.

this is the room i think!

here are some of the details of the chalet:

.
.

Date: 7th and 8th Jan

Venue: Costa Sands Sentosa

Meeting Place: Harbourfront Station

Time: To be confirmed

Price: $12, exclusive of your food etc.
Things to bring: board games, cards, rugby ball or whatever ball, money for food and bike renting, extra clothes, toiletries and whatever else you wanna bring!

there's gonna be two rooms since there are a lot of us, so there's space no worries haha. to make things more organised, we have arranged a schedule for the two days!

DAY ONE

8am - 8.30am : travelling to sentosa

8.30am - 10.30am : TRAINING

10.30am - 12nn : chilling at the beach

12nn - 1pm : lunch

DAY TWO

6am - 7am : watch the sunrise?

10.30am - 11am : return bikes, bookout of chalet

11am onwards : hangout by the beach / lunch etc.

of course this is not the confirmed plan la. it can shift around and everything, but it's just a rough guide to prevent comtemplating (which always happens with us).

yep so that's about all the information you need to know about the chalet! if you're attending the chalet, please text He Wei so we can confirm the number of people going.

alright, looking forward to all your texts soon! :D

training would be as follows:

Monday - Normal training
Tuesday - Gym

alright, so prepare yourselves, start doing your 2.4km runs in school and preparing for the rigorous training ahead! more updates will be given soon!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL FOR YOUR PROMOS!

let's all promote together yea? :D

2009-09-15T08:51:00.000-07:00

Hey guys! Just an announcement..

The Nike Human Race is coming up on the 24th of October!

If we have enough people, maybe we can go as a team? Apparently there's this competition or something. Schools with the most people finishing below 90minutes gets freebies like vouchers and stuff! (which i think shouldn't be a problem for us!)

Those interested can sms Peiying at 97368079! :D

alrighty, good luck to all for your promos!
good luck to seniors for your prelims!

- He Wei

2009-09-03T07:40:00.000-07:00

Hey guys!

as you all know, there won't be training until the promos are over! and training only resumes officially on the 12th of October. From now till then, it's about a one month and one week gap!

Thus, in order to ensure our fitness does not slump to such a bad degree, we have came up with a training schedule! The training schedule is as follows:

[1] 2.4km run (or longer)
[2] 4 x 50m lunges
[3] core exercises!
[4] light stridings (optional)

of course, we hear you and we know that you guys have tight schedules for these few weeks due to tuitions and your own study schedules. Thus, we have decided to make it an OTOT (own time, own target) thing, so be sure to do these self-trainings when you have the time! try to do it at least twice a week? yep haha.

alrighty, promos are just 20 days away, so mug hard! good luck everyone!

- He Wei

2009-08-27T08:37:00.001-07:00

ALL THE BEST TO OUR SENIORS FOR YOUR PRELIMS! :D

JUNIORS, TIME TO MUG FOR PROMOS! NO ONE RETAIN HOR! HAHA.

2009-08-18T08:48:00.001-07:00

Hey guys! Hewei here, just some team updates!

[1] Training

Training ends this thursday! (Which means thursday is our last training till after promos, please do come!) Training will only resume on the 12th of October, which is means to give us more time to study for promos!

HOWEVER, we will be holding several sessions to keep our fitness up, most of these sessions would be long runs and light strides. Those who are not keen on these sessions, please do work out on your own and don't let your fitness drop! There will be intensive training after promos! haha. oh and please do your core everyday, don't lose your core!

Training may be increased to three times a week after the promos, including Saturday, so do keep it in mind!

This Thursday's training is 4.45pm sharp at the gallery steps! please don't be late as we will be going over to the slopes! Those who dismiss at times later than 4.45pm, do take your lunch before your final lesson, and head over to the slopes asap after you're dismissed!

[2] Youth for Causes Run

Youth for causes is organising a 3km run to support the needy! It will be held on Sunday morning, and the cost of it is $15. it's a little expensive, but it's for charity! yep. and you'll be given a t-shirt and some freebies, so do inform Dharlynnie if you're interested!

good luck for all your MSA results!
see ya all on Thursday! :D

2009-08-02T09:45:00.000-07:00

Heya guys!

Announcements for the week!

i repeat: OPTIONAL. attendance won't be marked. This is to provide you guys more time for the MSAs! (oh by the way, just in case you didn't know, attendance taking has started since last week.)

[2] Attendance offences:

Unless there is a valid reason, actions will be taken when:

Hello Trackers!

It has been a while since this space was last updated. I apologise for the long delay of updates.
2009 National Track and Field Championships ended on 23rd Apr even though we didn't achieve any points, we should still be proud of our improvements compared to the previous batch.

Here the results:

Daryl - 2.22.51
Lip Chiau - 2.26.01

A Girls 800m Heats

Well, comparing our performance with the previous batch, i would say that we've improved quite a bit. (for your info, the 06/07 batch was one of the best, they got into many finals and even won a few medals) Juniors, now it is your turn to shine. Remember, train hard and be disciplined during training. On top of that, remember to take care of yourself and AVOID being injured. I'd advise that if you already have an injury, DO NOT worsen it by forcing yourself to train. Rest and nurse your injury and try to avoid all other physical activities such as PE. =)

For those of you who want to see how we fared last year, here are some of the timings:
4X100m Boys
45.76s
4X400m Boys
3.49.72

I'd like to thank ALL trackers who came down all the way to the stadium to support us.

Hey everyone!

Firstly, I'd like to thank all trackers who came for the outing! Without all your support, the outing wouldn't have been successful. I know it kinda became very impromptu after we left sentosa and because of that we had to stone and think of where to go next,especially when we were in town. Sorry about that and I'd also like to thank those who stayed to play pool with the seniors!

Next, this annoucement concerns those who want to buy shoes/spikes/whatever sporting equpiment you need for running. Coach has already e-mailed everyone about the lobang for all these stuff. He suggests that we go down to that place in a group to buy all the stuff.

Saucony will also be coming down to the SAJC gym this tuesday, 24th March, at 4PM. They will be bringing shoes, spikes and running tights down. Those who want to buy, please be at the gym to try on sizes.

Lastly. Here are the results of the postponed events of the SAA 3rd Allcomers that took place on 19th March.

212M Men 400m (56-58s)

2009-03-19T08:34:00.000-07:00

I wish everyone of you good luck for the upcoming tests and hope to see you guys in training soon again!

On a lighter note, for seniors who weren't at thursday's training, the NTU Bike Rally team CIP has been cancelled due to a clash in timings with the SAA 3rd Allcomers.

I hope everyone who went for the event got to know each other better and had fun in the process, despite the heavy rain. Even though you guys didnt get to do the high elements and the rafting, you still enjoyed the process and the company of your teammates.

For the next 6 months, continue to encourage and spur each other on towards your goals that you have set for yourselves. Think about what you want to acheive personally and make it a committment to achieve those goals.

Don't be afraid to push yourselves to establish new limits...

Today's meeting was COOL.. I bet none of the candidates expected it. Anyway, what nicholas said makes lots of sense. Thanks Nicholas. Read his tag on the tagboard. Simply, i think it is good to put meetings, training etc 3 mins earlier so that no one will be late. Although that feels like primary school, I believe it will somehow work well. Look at our 7mins rule. It contributes to our "sluggish culture of SAJC (as quoted by Mr Lim Chong Sheng)". During OCIP camp, the usual shout phrase was "Where's your sense of urgency!". Maybe we should add it to track use if our punctuality problem doesn't change.

thanks for ur kind attention. that's it for now. cya guys :)

here is kidd signing off...

2007-08-25T08:51:00.000-07:00

shiok everyone post at the same time.
so i guess it's my turn now huh!

anyway i changed the training timings thingy thing thing.
(you know. On that little part which pops up when you click that button that says "about us." that little part which show ms tan and mr quek. that little part which everyone seems to have forgotten about.)

ANYWAY. yes yes to be all cliche-ish and politically correct.

All the best for Prelims! yeah! I trust that our senior, older-than-thou, infinitely wise J2 track people will give their all into prelims! (and even more for A-levels!)

so go! get all your As for A's!

plus! don't kill yourselves before you do. Achieving your peak results at prelims, then dropping at A-levels is just stupid(can i say that?). Just like burning out a day before A's.

but who am i to say huh. i haven't even taken my promos!

(my name is jason, and i am a luo.)

randomness...

2007-08-25T08:42:00.000-07:00

hehex...
dropping a trial post since we J1s going to take over liao
going to make this blog more alive!!!
weeeeeee....

All the best for your promos fellow J1s :D

and of course all the best for ur prelims seniors!!!
(YOU SLACKERS!!! u guys shldn't be here in the first place!!!:P )

anyway to all who are falling sick or are injured,
rest well and recover soon!

oh yar J1s!
COMPULSORY TRACK TRAINING NEXT FRI (31/08) @ 4.30!!!
