Triathlon

Date : Saturday, July 12, 2008

The triathlon was really a great experience for me... I did enjoyed it. =) I mainly did it with Yvonne, Sarah (my counsin's friend).- From a different school from me! The order was swim, cycle and then run. Accordingly to my parents, my swimming was quite fast among the other triathletes, I was about top 5... Many of the other triathletes were kicking me, and some even pulled me! I swam front crawl at first but due to people kicking me, I changed to breaststroke.... Yep, however, as I came out from the sea, I felt like dying... GRAVITY was really pulling me down!!! I was feeling so exhausted after swimming... I took fairly long to change and take my bike... OPPS! Yeah, the first few became th elast few to start... Cycling was my WORST! GAH! My legs felt so tired already... To my surprise, the cycling lane was totally not packed with other racers as I thought it would be... Sometimes, you can be the only one riding on that lane mann!!! Quite nice, but also tiring... Yvonne was ahead of me in cycling... Hahax, but I caught up with her when at the start of the running point... more like at the transition area when she was drinking water. I did not drink... so I caught up and we decided to run together. It was not very tiring I felt... I ran quite slowly as my egs can't seem to go at the speed I wanted them to go... sad. Okay, we had to run 2 km. It didn't even feel like 2km! It felt like 1 km hahahahaha... Yarh, there were like 2 water points, and an area which they gave out sponges dipped in cold water. The sponge was really heavy with ICEY WATER! I loved that. I was just crutching on to it the whole run... it was so cold and energizing when I squeezed the water over my head! =) Finally, we ran past the finishing line! AND IT WAS OVER! It was really fun as you'll get to do 3 events! A great experience... Next year I have to join the adults section... NOOO, they are like all super big leh... :x hehe... I was really tired when I went to Min Xian's house for piano... I slept on the journey there in the car... :x Church was good... Alicia CHOO! It is a real pity that you could not come... The message was really good! =) I sat with Megan throughout. Later, I had piano and theory lesson at home... The day is now over... I am afraid I would not have enough time to complete my projects, assignments and some homework + study for tests!!! OMG!!! So many things to do... 2 projects, Science graded assignment, loads and loads of homework, 3 tests SO FAR! DIE! OKay, JIAYOU again!!! OH and GYM! Backward row... NONONONONO!!! I don't like that mann...
