BEACHRUNN(:

Whoohoo man, haven't been posting in a while.
haha.

okay, start with Sunday's Invitational relay.
Morning went to warren, watched videos on swimming techniques.
Was pretty cool, really helpful to improving strokes.
Espc. breaststroke.
Didn't swim though.
Afternoon met back at warren to go to Serangoon gardens.
they were having their annual club swim events.
We were "invited" to go there and get trashed swim a few relays.
Didn't have space or time to got warm up much.
Got chased out of the pool, so we settled for the small baby pool.
Couldn't do anything there, bloody low.
so, ohwells.
then, finally during the transition from end events to start relays, we could do warm-ups in the big pool. heh.
so yeah, the usual. Few laps, plunges, done.
My team I was the first swimmer, cool man I like.
I got the lead, but we lost it closer to the end.
Lydia swam in place of michelle, so yeah, can't blame her. Probably she was tired.
Isabelle did really well for 100m that day, never really had the chance to see her sprint 100m before. Coolios(:
All in all later, all our 4 teams got bronze for everything. Heh.

Couldn't go chompchomp, the bus came way early.
HA but the bus ride was SUPER FUNNY MANN.
kept doing this to darwin__
two different buses. One girl bus one guys bus(okay, not literally.)
so yeah, hell hilarious.

Got back to warren, realised we missed the warren bus to lot 1 by 5 freakking minutes.
So we decided, after a long discussiong session, to walk out.
David walked so fast, Isabelle they all wanted to catch up with him.
So the few of us Darwin lydia Xi Ying lagged behind.
Then we wanted to try if the hitchhiking sign still works.
So lydia stuck out her thumb, just for fun
But actually hailed down a car.
so, o.0/
haha, so we just took it loh(:

reached outside faster than the rest, but the rest took car also la.
Cept for david. Bloody hell that guy's got one freak of a stamina. Walked all the way out, faster then anyone would've.

So, eat already then went back from there. ha, tired so went to sleep. Hee(:

I'll skip to today.
annual 2.4km Beach Run(they changed the name)
Wanted to pace hilda lorhh, but she disappeared at station 10-12 around there. Whalao, scary la, the way she run.
Okay, she didn't exactly disappear, i could still see her.
but she was bloody far away. 0.o/

so, started off right in front, pacing along with Joanne and Hilda.
we caught up with Joanne a little way down, prolly at the 3rd-5th stations.
she lagged so far behind, I was hell scared she would catch up halfway and start chionging. but in the end she didn't la. cheryllin and cherrie did, btw.

Anyway.
So yeah, tried to keep up with Hilda. I overtake, she overtake, I overtake, she overtake... until I cannot overtake liao. Funny mann.

So well, I remember Derrek(201 guy) at one of the stations(can't remember which) he took my photo while I was running. Lol.

so, it was only me and Hilda until station 15 where Cheryllin and cherrie caught up with me. scary la, they two. they had other guys as pacers lo.

Buay tahan at the finishing point la, out of steam already.
But well, thanks to the guys who ran with me for the last hundred meters or so, espc. bryan. whoalao, he's freakking fast can. 9min10sec.
thankgoodness to them, I kinda got back my pace. yeah, I just heck care and sprint la. Last few meters anyway. Was thinking that, if wanna collapse, wait until sprint finish the 100m then have all the time to collapse. Ha.
But then, no need to think about catching up with cheryllin and cherrie la.

Nobel's mascot won the mascot competition, and Nobel won the overall beach run competition. Looks like we got some good long distance runners from Nobel eh? haha.

So I ended up 4th. Hilda 1st, cheryllin 2nd, cherrie 3rd and charmaine 5th.Well, it's an improvement for me(: got a medal, then went off with 205 to settlers' cafe to play board games.

I'm lazy to write everything down la. Just say it was really fun can la.

Ohya. I realised there was something wrong with my previous blogskin. So I changed it.

I'm going for plain ones now. I think it's quite nice.

My name is gen, swimming's my second nature,
and that's all you needa know.
