Kent Ridge is a lovely backyard to have in NUS, and we have conducted many natural history and heritage walks there. Being part of the Southern Ridges, a walk of some 9km walk will take you from NUS to Harbour Front. So we also have a landscape for a work out!
But we are all so busy. And many of our fellow NUS staffers are in the same boat. A number of NUS staff are able to make it at the official knock off time of 5.30pm on Fridays, so a few of us – Kenneth, Airani, Weiting, Joleen and myself, began rousing some away from their desks in 2016. Last semester’s plans fell apart, due to many deadlines, volunteer and stakeholder appointments. This semester, we are making a valiant effort too reinitiate this.
And so we are offering these Friday briskwalks:
- Fri 6 Sep 2019 (YIH to Hort Park; ~5km)
- Fri 27 Sep 2019 (YIH to Harbourfront MRT; ~8km)
- Fri 18 Oct 2019 (YIH to Hort Park; ~5km)
- Fri 8 Nov 2019 (YIH to Hort Park; ~5km)
- Fri 15 Nov 2019 (YIH to Harbourfront MRT; ~8km)
All are welcome. Just check the NUS Toddycats Eventbrite page for details and registration.
