I chatted with Dr Tan, our medic-in-charge, that EVERY year, MILKRun suffers most from bad weather. The entire event stretched from 1pm - 5pm. As staff, we start from 8am. Being under the sun can be quite disastrous, not only to skin but, to health. Heatstroke is not uncommon.
Today's weather was PERFECT!!! To me, I just felt that God has answered my prayers!!!!
Instead of being the driver, I was given another responsibility. Medical Post Jaga. Honestly, the medical post is the BEST place to be in. Cooling fans, ceiling fans, huge space, ice buckets of water. I lovingly call it the Oasis. I became the "envy" of my colleagues who were running here, there and everywhere. However, being medically NOT trained, there is very little I could do when help is required. So I just become the logistics runner for Dr Tan.
The very unfortunate thing though was that I am unable to join my families at our Family Day Tentage. What made me most happy was the the friends whom I asked as volunteers did enjoy themselves. It was a big-time "Phew" for me! I was quite worried that they will be unhappy. For now, I can't wait to view the photos my friend took today!
Anyway, ended the day with a treat for myself. Went to Beach Road for steamboat. I reached home feeling satisfied and VERY smelly. *wink*
