Even if you’ve run plenty of relay races in the past, you won’t want to miss the upcoming “The Great Relay” (TGR) because the inaugural Singapore event looks like it’s going to be the race of a lifetime! This event comes on the heels of a similar Hong Kong TGR held in January 2015, so if you happen to read about it, you know a little about the one scheduled for Singapore on 13 June 2015. If you’re team-minded and love a good baton pass, get in on the action—after all, there are medals to be won and you’re likely to discover something heroic about yourself by putting yourself out there, whether this is your very first relay race or your 100th!
With 35 simultaneous starts and no finish line, the world will run in an incredible world-wide race on Sunday, 3 May 2015. In races across six continents, runners will attempt to stay ahead of pursuing ‘catcher cars’ driven to chase and overpass them.
The TRX Home Suspension Trainer: Breaking the Limits of Space to Make You Tougher and Fitter
The TRX home suspension trainer is an exercise tool that uses bodyweight exercises to work the different muscle groups in your body. It is composed of a sling and a set of anchors. You attach the sling to the anchors, and then attach the anchors to the wall or a similarly fixed object. The whole TRX Home kit comes with exercise guides, a transportation bag, a door placard and a wristband.

Lee is a living example of the positive effects running has on the aging body and if he has his druthers, he plans to keep going for decades more and in the company of the people he calls his work and running colleagues.
Who hasn’t seen sci-fi movies that feature a person strapping on a contraption to zip into the stratosphere? Thanks to contemporary minds, space age machines are no fiction; some are even being developed for the fitness market. We’ve unearthed some of the latest and, in some cases, weirdest fitness innovations. Some claim they offer equal—if not better—benefits to what those runners receive when they hit the trail. Seriously? Scooters, skates and cycles that promise stamina and health benefits better than running? We don’t think so. But that doesn’t make them any less fascinating! Will any of these wind up in your home? Keep reading to decide.
The thermometer is creeping over 30 degrees Celsius and humidity is 70%. The relentless sun is beating down and you resemble a tap with sweat dripping off every orifice of your body.
