Toastmasters Amazing Race – Singapore!

Our WATG Singapore Toastmasters Club managed to get two teams together to compete in the first ever Division A Toastmasters Amazing Race. The Red team consisted of myself, Suhada, Ashique and Ronaldo. Harris, Umar, Reena and Cheryl were representing WATG’s Black team.

we were all so tired and dehydrated

Our adventure started on the riverfront and took us on some competitive running through the streets of the CBD, found us dancing in public on the waterfront and racing through the MRT to the quirky Haw Par Villa, where we searched for sculptures that matched the riddles on our clues. The WATG teams were neck and neck at this point, and we continued on with the competitive spirit during our race through a mall which was complete with embarrassing photos with mannequins and tracking down free samples, playing some charades on the roof and finally onto Sentosa for a run along the beach, some silhouette jump shots and lastly a sandcastle building challenge.

Side by side we finished our sandcastles, with not another team yet in site, and in the spirit of teamwork (and because we were all so tired and dehydrated) we all walked into the finish hand in hand alternating red and black team members.

The next team finished about an hour after our amazing finish and WATG took home both the first place and the second place prizes! The race was such great fun and we are looking forward to continuing to make an impression on the Singapore Toastmasters community.
