Sailing on Sundays for enthusiasts, old salts and beginners
Welcome to my sailboat. **Please read this notice**. These are crew opportunities, not for passengers, non-swimmers, people afraid of the water or get seasick. Bring a change of clothes, a towel, a hat, non-marking footwear with heelstrap and sunblock. There is a toilet and drinking water on board. Participants like to contribute to expenses in appreciation of this opportunity.
**Also**, please confirm your attendance by SMS or Whatsapp on Saturday for sailing on Sunday, to avoid no-shows and missed sailings. No-shows deprive others of a place, so be responsible and remove your reservation if you are not attending, and please do it in good time. Places unconfirmed by Saturday will not be reserved, and I can't wait for you if I'm not sure you're coming. Keep me informed and reply to my messages. Don't be late. Thank you. Derek 9807-5827.

Q: Do I need to register?
A: Yes. To get the most out of your parkrun experience, you should register at parkrun.sg/register. To get an official time, you only need to register once (for free) at parkrun.sg. Once registered, bring your personal barcode on the day (a printout or a screenshot on your phone is fine).
Registration unlocks your personal parkrunner's profile, which shows your 5km times for all of the parkruns you will ever run. You'll kick yourself after your second parkrun if you don't!
Q: Why join Urban Jungle Runners for parkrun?
A: You are welcome to attend parkrun on your own, and if you find you love the 5k format, you can absolutely make it your regular Saturday run! Our group uses our monthly parkrun visit as a fun, organized way to track our 5km progress together. Joining us is a great way to meet our community. If you're looking for more variety, we also offer trail runs, hill sessions, and social road runs on the other weekends of the month.
Q: Is this a race?
A: It's a race against yourself. Parkrun is a wonderfully inclusive and non-competitive event. The goal is to challenge your own personal best in a positive environment. There's no pressure to compete with others.
Q: Is this event suitable for beginners?
A: Absolutely. Parkrun is designed for everyone, from first-time joggers and walkers to experienced runners. There is no time limit, and because it's a community event, you'll find people of all paces. It's the perfect place to start.
Q: If I meet you at the MRT, what is the pace to the start line?
A: We will jog from the designated MRT station to the start line at a very relaxed warm-up pace, approximately 6:00-6:30 min/km.
Q: What happens after the run?
A: We usually join the other parkrunners for a well-deserved breakfast at a nearby spot. It's a great social part of the morning, but it's completely optional.
Q: Who is in charge during the event?
A: The parkrun volunteer team is in charge. Our group participates as guests, so all runners must listen to the official pre-run briefing and follow the instructions of the parkrun race director and marshals at all times.
Q: Is there a bag drop?
A: Yes, parkrun locations have a designated area for bags. Please note that this area is unattended, so you should not leave valuables.
Q: What happens if it rains?
A: The event proceeds rain or shine, so please dress for the weather.

The Gir With the Louding Voice Abi Dare

Book summary:
Adunni is a fourteen-year-old Nigerian girl who knows what she wants: an education. This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a "louding voice" -- the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But instead, Adunni's father sells her to be the third wife of a local man who is eager for her to bear him a son and heir. When Adunni runs away to the city, hoping to make a better life, she finds that the only other option before her is servitude to a wealthy family. As a yielding daughter, a subservient wife, and a powerless slave, Adunni is told, by words and deeds, that she is nothing. But while misfortunes might muffle her voice for a time, they cannot mute it. And when she realizes that she must stand up not only for herself, but for other girls, for the ones who came before her and were lost, and for the next girls, who will inevitably follow, she finds the resolve to speak, however she can--in a whisper, in song, in broken English--until she is heard
