haha.. kk lets me name u a situation before i start.. haha.. lets say ur on the last leg of ur race.. haha tired already.. but cause u can feel ur blood flowing quite well u dun wanna stop.. so u look for encouragment to keep moving urs legs forward.. wat do u look for?

haha now.. triathelon isnt really a test of strength.. its just a test.. its a test of pure endurance.. wilingness go put ur next foot forward.. willingness to peddle at a heavier gear.. and willingness to.. umm.. paddle??.. something like that la.. anyway.. how the hell do i keep running.. if every time i look down im looking at these shoes which i completely dislike cause of the color?!?! its not a very big thing to make noise about.. but triathelon is a personal sport.. its suppose to be at ur own liking.. rite?
nvm then.. i got new shoes form this crazyly crowded addidas sale.. their red.. and comfy.. but red.. yes red.. never liked the color red.. its to close to blood and the color of soreness.. haha.. dun know y jav likes..

i came in third today! haha triathelon family conducted a race today for members.. haha.. it was a sprint distance.. haha.. in essence it was just a smaller version of wat i have to do in OSIM.. haha.. i clocked in at 1 houe 42 mins.. but according to the timer i was 1 hour 39 mins i think.. haha.. not sure la.. i know that all my timings not 100% accurate.. haha cause when i enter transition area i always forget to check.. haha.. its like " cycle in!! rmb to loosen gears to get blood flowing thru muscles!! put bike.. bike stand bike stand!! drink water!!" only then do i rmb to check my timing... haha.. so must minus bout 2-3 mins.. haha..

the first part of the race was probably the most eye opening for me.. it was a kind of water start.. meaning ppl had to enter the water before swimming off.. haha.. it was damn gross.. haha.. the umm.. launch area was all dewy and mossy.. haha damn disgusting.. haha so every one moved in to the sandy are that came after the slope.. haha.. now the starting was amzing.. can u imagine 80 ppl suddenly all diving in to the water around u.. haha.. the moment the horn sounded i went in only to be hit by some guy on the shoulder.. haha.. at least my goggles never come out la hor.. haha.. i was so afraid i refuse to look down and swim the first few metres.. haha. i was purely had my head up and swim.. haha.. damn dangerous la..the rest of it also required equal alertness.. haha i finished that really fast!! alot faster then wat i expected.. really.. was like 16-17 mins.. but i kept moving to wards the left.. haha.. starting as i swam i kept goin further from the bouys.. cause the course was a kind of upside down triangle.. and the first part was a swim parellel to the shore.. so i kep moving further into deeper water.. haha.. sad.. need to fix my stroke.. i notice alot of times my left actually gather more thrust.. dun know why.. haha.. and my legs.. haha.. i was so lazy to paddle with my legs.. lol.. since the time we used the floats to keep our legs up i become lazy to use my legs.. shit sia.. haha
ok.. end of swim.. haha almost went to the wrong launch area.. haha.. heng the lady infront of me went up first then the kayaker shouted and she dive back in.. haha.. i could still maintain my rythm.. haha so finish the swim leg!! haha.. so funny.. the main corodinater of the race went down the slope and help ppl up the mossy mossy ground.. haha.. i beat OSIM wont like that..

transition area was quite empty.. haha.. i think i was slightly ahead of the slower ones but not alot.. cause moment i turn saw my sis and some other ppl behind.. haha.. nvm.. drink 2 gulps of water.. wear socks and shoes.. thats probably the grosses part of the whole race.. ahha wearing socks on to a really dirty foot.. haha.. nvm.. used to it cause yesterday already did it.. haah..
got on bike and chiong.. this time i remembered my sunglasses.. haha.. but forgot tto put my water bottle onto the holster..

the cycling leg of the race was quite ok la.. nothin really big happen.. just a long long coastal road.. haha.. only irritating part was this stupid skinny ass boy competiting against me.. the entire way thru he drafted rite behind me.. bugger sia.. the entire first half of the leg he drafted me.. then at the turn about he followed me in but the moment we were back on the straight route he decided to chiong.. i was thinking of chiongin after him but decided against it.. haha.. instead i maintained pace and tried to eat the gel pack that they gave.. haha it kinda sucked.. haha.. the taste was gross and it was so thick! my god.. sllowing it i had to hold my breath and concentrate. haha.. i took bout half and decided to dump the rest.. to hard to eat.. haha.. back to the skinny cocky head.. haha.. that dumb dumb guy.. i think he didnt really plan out his route.. the moment he chiong in front he manage to get bout 100 metres ahead of me.. he just stayed infront there.. most of the way he was there but could see at the end when i was still maintaining my rhythm he was tired already.. by the time we reached the one and only traffic light.. i was right behind him.. haha.. he turn and gave a kinda shocked face.. haha.. dumb ass sia.. if he was willing he could have drafted rite behind me the whole way.. and at the traffice light start to chiong rite? haha.. then he would have come into transition 100 metres ahead of me.. lol.. instead.. same! and he chionged.. i was enjoyin the 747 taking off.. haha.. now lets talk bout the skinny guys fren.. mr fatty.. haha dude had a road bike.. big deal!! haha.. can still shout "overtaking on the right!!!" wah.. damn pro.. haha.. i watched as he overtake.. haha.. he moved so slowly.. most ppl overtake in bout 10 secs.. for this guy.. at the end of 30 s he was still slightly behind me.. lol.. in the end he gave up and settled behind me and cycled in to the transition area. my dear boy.. wanna be cocky at least be like me like that la.. overtake already turn back and smile.. this guy shout say wanna overtake.. in the end couldnt maitain the 1 km per hour more then me.. gay dumb ass.. haha.. he and his fren both go die la.. maybe when they grow up the wil own me.. but till then.. stay in ecp and cycle.. dun come coastal... haha.. road bike loss to me and the scott.. bleah..

transition area was nothin special.. came in.. put my bike. for got to take timing of course.. haha.. then took 2 gulps of water and started the jog.. haha.. quite nice ah.. i go in they say NUMBER 62!! coming in!! well done!!.. then 20s later NUMBER 62!! goin out!! keep goin!! haha.. i bet OSIM dun have like that.. haha..

the jog was quite amazing for me.. haha i actually did very well.. alot better then how i tot i would do.. haha.. yay. i completed the run in a roughly 40 mins.. haha.. managed to jog 95 % of the way.. only walk twice and stopped once cause there was a rock in my shoe.. haha.. on a whole the jog was quite good la.. but got alot of burping.. dun know why.. haha.. and my shoe is officially to small.. haha i wore my gilbert arenas shoes today.. haha.. now i got blister on both my feet.. haa.. on the arc there.. thats kind of the problem with addidas.. their shoes cutting very long and thin.. not fat like new balance.. haha.. the run was kinda lonely.. i tot my sis would catch up to me cause i saw her just after i turned in the bike run and tot she would have beaten me there.. when she didnt i wandered if she cramped.. during transition also.. i was wondering why she not yet come in.. haha.. the run there was this lady hu started be hind me.. dun know why sia.. our rhythim was almost the same.. but could see that she seemed to go faster then me. maybe is cause her stride was bigger then mine.. dun know.. must go and experiment.. at least i got proper shoes to test.. even though i dun like them.. haha..

at the end of the race was nice.. haha they announce ur number and then they say ur name.. welcome back and all.. haha found thomas lu kia weiyang and grace all sitting and chatting.. haha.. funny part was that 30s after i came in.. my dear sister came in.. haha.. so close.. she could have beaten me easy.. ahha.. oh ya.. and the two idiot boys were last.. haha..

prize ceremony came after that.. haha.. funny sia.. they announced the winners for open catergory.. then ladies category.. then whe came to the junior boys the guy said.. and in 2nd runner up position.. wu xi yu!!.. i kanna stunned.. haha.. i tot got some error.. they see lu kai number as mine? maybe? haha.. i go up shake that guy hand and get a new bottle and cap.. haha..yay.. at least i got somethin out of my first triathelon.. haha.. dun know whether i deserver it.. but yay.. haha
