Loving my new bumblebee GARION bicycle! #JomReunion 6X Foldable Bicycles Giveaway Contest

February 20, 2015 by thejessicat

 

On Valentine’s Day, my doorbell rang and the Citylink delivery man showed up at my doorstep with a huge parcel.

“What? No way!,” I thought to myself. Theboyfriend couldn’t possibly have any more surprises up his sleeve after a super surprise the night before, could he? After all, he was still fast asleep at noon when the parcel came.

 

 Turned out, it was a bicycle sponsored by the good folks of Bojio & Garion Bikes!

 

I excitedly dragged the huge box in (yes it was quite heavy!) before estimating its weight by trying to do bicep curls with it LOL. Cool

My first impression of it – boxed – was that it was compact enough to fit my car boot and most likely, slightly under 15KG.

 

 

 

Excitedly woke moo up and together, we ripped the box apart to unwrap, unfold and unveil our new bike! Big Smile

 

Kinda like this picture, as I can somewhat see the definition of my delts & triceps hehe.

Motivation to work harder at it! Laughing

 

I asked the sis who was watching us unwrap it, if she could cycle, and she answered smugly, “Duh of course I can, everyone can cycle lah.” 

I hung my head in embarrassment and looked at her pitifully, followed by a, “WHAT? YOU MEAN YOU CAN’T??” Yell

Yes, I absolutely cannot. For the very first time I cycled back in Ipoh, I was chased by a dog and fell off the bike resulting in deep, multiple scratches. CryThe second time I cycled was in Cambodia, and I got hit by a truck whilst on my way to Angkor Wat and ruined my holiday.

And that was the last time I ever I cycled a bicycle.Canny

Call it paranoia, but I affirm that I can no longer cycle a bicycle confidently anymore.

 

Almost toppled the bike over.

Candid shot that Moo took of me when I was freaking out.

 

I can, I will, I must. Baby steps – easy does it!

Picking up speed, balance and confidence all over again.

 

So thanks to Bojio and Garion Bikes, this is my third time attempting to cycle a bicycle again.

Thank you for giving me the incentive to face my fears! Smile

 

Also, major credits to the skilful boyfie of mine (yes, he’s doing the wheelie!),

who patiently taught me how to cycle again and rebuilt my confidence. Maybe i’ll even complement Fitology in my workout.

 

Hey hey hey! Look at me go! Slowly but surely 😀

We had so much fun that Valentines outdoor date,

so much so that we’ve decided to make cycling a weekend affair! Kiss

Let’s sweat to change lives. Run the distance with me and my new companion, Rexona Move!

June 26, 2013 by thejessicat

 

 

By just glancing at my updates on this blog or all my social media profiles, anyone can easily point out and safely assume that I live a very active lifestyle comprising sports and working out in the gym. That is correct.

But only those who really know me well enough would know that I love taking part in charitable causes and helping the less fortunate.

Because really, it's not something you can document everyday.

 

Keeping track of the distance I've just ran with my new companion on my iPhone.

 

Ergo, I was delighted when I found out that I could combine the benefits of running and being charitable at the same time, all in a single app on my mobile phone.

Guess what I was introduced to?

Enter: Rexona Move.cool

 

After downloading it, you get a little walkthrough on what Rexona Move is all about and how it works

 

Basically, this app is a fun initiative to yank you out of your seat and be active. Work up a sweat, baby! yes

Our movements will be turned into distance to help underprivileged children in every state in Malaysia – yup, your help will be channeled nationwide!

 

 

How? You ask.

It records our distance when we move from one point to another via GPS, tracks them, and turns them into contributions. Yeah, it calculates and submits all the contributions for you.

All you need to do now, is to get up MOVE.

 

I selected the 'running' mode yesterday evening to accompany my daily runs.

 

 

So far, I’ve been using it for a lot of different activities like shopping, running errands, jogging, walking home from the nearby grocery store and especially when  I do my runs around the neighbourhood.

So let's see how I fared on my first run with Rexona Move.

 

As a heath and fitness enthusiast, I always encourage stretching those quads and hamstrings before a run.

Warming up will do you good!

 

Another muscle group that will be heavily used during this run are the ones in your calves!

 

Staying hydrated before my run!

 

And it's time for the flag off! Am I ready for this race despite being the only participant? cheeky

So it's me against myself. I will show no mercy.

 

Run like the wind!

 

You know what I really love about this Rexona Move app?

It rewards me with badges whenever I hit a new milestone. Yay! Such gives me motivation to run and walk more for the sake of achieving more distances.

 

Got my first badge! devilyes

 

Taking a short break while exploring the app further

 

Let's continue running!

Rexona Move on my iPhone is snug in the palm of my hand.

 

Even if you are not an avid runner, don’t like any form of sports, don’t like sweating, you can still be part of the cause by just living your life as per normal, doing the things you like.

It’s zero effort to help others. Why not?wink

 

There are a variety of activities available that won't impose on your daily activities

You walk, and climb the stairs at least once a day, don't you? smiley Heck, there's even a 'shopping' mode!

 

By doing absolutely nothing additional, you can go about your daily lives while simultaneously being part of a huge, collective effort of charity for underprivileged children across Malaysia!

 

Malaysians are amazing! Look at how much we've travelled so far!

 

Apa kata kita berganding bahu untuk menolong kanak-kanak yang kurang mampu?

Sounds like a pretty noble (and easy!) thing to do, if you ask me.

 

Running one swift step at a time!

 

I urge all of you to follow my footsteps (quite literally LOL) and download the Rexona Move app for the greater good of people in need. 

Rexona Move is available on your iPhone’s App Store and your Android’s Google Play store.

 

Install it and make a difference to others. I sure did!wink

 

Haha I like this photo. It looks like I'm running straight towards an oncoming vehicle, right? LOL

The aswer lies in camera angles. SO don't worry at all; I'm obviously not attempting suicide. heart 

 

The lovely rainbow I saw across the sky that evening.

It's a good sign, innit? Heaven approves cheekycheeky

 

Nine minutes into my run!

 

Hi. laugh

 

Remember, it doesn’t matter if you’ve ran a 10 kilometre marathon or walked for 5 metres just to cross the  road to buy some food, because each movement counts… it matters! angel

Every little contribution is donated to help all the underprivileged children in Malaysia.

Sedikit lama-lamanya akan menjadi bukit, kan? cool

 

All tired out after running for almost 10KM!

 

But I know it's worth it. 

 

It’s that effortless. Can you imagine hardly lifting a finger to contribute to charity and to turn someone's life around for better days ahead? smileyheart

 

Anymore preaching and I'll feel like Mother Teresa already.

So you get the drill, right?

 

Hand-in-hand with Rexona Move, let’s do this together and sweat to change lives… so get moving!
