its been 4 days of continuous training already. and i'm mentally more exhausted than physically. but i'll press on. including today's gym and tml's water, that makes it 6 days of continuous training.
saturdaydid k1 with partner because we didn't have enough k2s. it was alright initially, with partner beside me. after the 3 round or so, i saw partner rowing back to the pontoon. and as the k2s were all ahead of me, it felt so helpless and hopeless to be paddling alone. though so, i can't give up. portage seems endless. capsized by the first bejamin shear's bridge due to the wave of the turning dragonboat. though so, they helped me up. on my following round there, i was caught in the waves of 2-3 dragonboats. it was super wavy. and the dragonboaters looked at me as though i was potential to capsize again, as though ready to help me up. LOL. but i slapped the waters damn hard, numerously, and went off.
work. shagged.
sundayadeline and i went. the only girls. capsized by the benjamin shear's again. saw the nationals and they help us up. but the boat was super heavy, with the water in it. but we decided to empty it at our portage round- the following round. :D
work. home with derrick. (:

the marathon is this coming sunday. let's just take very good care of ourselves as we can't afford to get injured of fall ill. my back feels paralysed whenever i get up or turn on my bed. these mornings, when i wake up, my right ankle seems to be sprained. but it's alright after that. i need to take care of my right wrist as well. jo, lend me the guard please!
we're getting more and more used to the distance of the marathon already. lets just do it well with no regrets!
afraid and nervous are redundant emotions as one is afraid to lose. hence, paddle hard and win. only then will you not be afraid and nervous. [sounds familiar huh? u should know where this is being adapted from.]
shall take a real good chiller after the marathon!
REPUBLIC CANOE! SA-SA-SA! OH YEAH?! HOO-RAH!
:D:D
au voirs!
