The Ting Kau Bridge and Approach Viaduct are 1,875 metres long while the triple tower bridge has an overall length of 1,177 metres. Three towers have been specially designed to withstand extreme wind and typhoon conditions, with heights of 170 metres, 194 metres, and 158 metres, located on the Ting Kau headland, on a reclaimed island in Rambler Channel (which spans 900 metres wide) and on the north-west Tsing Yi shoreline respectively.
The arrangement of separate decks on both sides of the 3 towers contributes to the slender appearance of the bridge while acting favourably under heavy wind and typhoon loads. Each deck carries 3 traffic lanes and a hard shoulder.
At a design & construction cost of HK$1.94 billion, it is one of the longest cable-stayed bridges in the world. Along with the Tsing Ma and Kap Shui Mun bridges, it is closely monitored by the Wind and Structural Health Monitoring System (WASHMS).
Reebok RealFlex Runners
Picked up my first pair of Reeboks since I was like 12 years old but I chose these bad boys over NIke's Free Run kicks since these actually felt more comfortable (Feels like I'm walking on marsh mellows) and are just as light as the Nike Free Runs.
Took these kicks out for a 10K run today after work and my feet really took a beating since it's got minimal support unlike my traditional Asic Gel runners which has amazing cushioning and support ---- but apparently, these RealFlex runners are supposedly designed to give you the sense of barefoot running but added protection to encourage more muscle strengthening versus high knee and hip impact from traditional running shoes. Who knows…could be a scam but I'm definitely gonna give these kicks more time.
