Swimming
Tao Li

With 1 silver and bronze, I definitely wouldn't say Tao Li's performance at the Asian Games was a disappointment. Althought she did not manage to score a hat trick in the 50m Buttery (Having won it in 2006 & 2010) and lost the Asian Games record, second best in Asia is still a feat in itself. I mean how many people can say that? At the end of the day, she will still go down in history as one of Singapore's greatest Asian Games athletes of all times.
Her loot: $150,000
Womens 50m Butterfly Silver- $100,000
Women’s 100m Butterfly Bronze - $50,000
Bowling

My journey with barefoot running: the Vibram FiveFingers Bikila EVO
Getting a pair of Vibram FiveFingers is more than just getting a shoe. It is subscribing to a whole new way of running. What I really appreciate about the Vibram philosophy is that it encourages you to literally take one step at a time. It is about achieving best performance through right effort, right attitude and patience.
