Description: Think of sports and one thinks of superlatives. Among athletes, there's always the fastest, the strongest, the greatest. Beyond the sporting feats, one celebrates the human spirit captured in terms like the grittiest, the boldest, the toughest. Taking a cue from this and from Singapore's 50th, "50est" is a collection featuring 50 of Singapore's sports stories. Whether they highlight stars or relative unknowns, big achievements or simply personal breakthroughs, these are all stirring stories for the Singapore soul.
