Chinese New Year Special: Training at Sentosa

Hohoho, how happening can it be doing training on the eve of eve of CNY... Alarm rang at 6am, still wonder what event i having.. wondering is it Tues or Thurs, which i usually wake up at this time, to go for school.

It feels like it have been a year since i go Sentosa for training, especially the 'semi-open' sea swim which is infested with sea bugs.. Also been a long time since i enter the island without my bicycle. I was so lost that i waited for the team at the bus terminal whereas they are waiting for me at the control station to take the monorail. OH! THE MONORAIL IS UP??!!

Anyway took the monorail and a short walk from the Palawan beach to Tanjong beach. Quite a big change to the environment... Keep sighing, asking myself why am i here... I could be sleeping in bed now.. The whole stretch is like ghost town, we are the first few to arrive.

Had a short chat with the team while setting our transition area. Mine is simple, just shoe, bottle and sunglasses, while Squid had himself a pail of water to wash his leg after the swim. "warm up" is a loop to and fro the tide pole.

First Biathlon:
Was one of the last few swimmers, exiting for run at the timing of 20+. Took the effort to bring the shoe to the shower area to wash my leg before wearing them. This training is really just to pre-burn the calories, that i will be consuming for the next 3 days. Roughly can make my way to Siloso beach, although at one portion i actually hit a dead end. Palawan had the most changes compared to the past. Ran back at 46:16

Guess what i saw when i reach back at Tanjong beach.. A photo shoot sessions with numerous models, around 5-10 of them. Woah~! They really contribute to the rise in temperature of the beach, by then around 9 plus 10. Admiring at their monstrous figure from a distance. However can clearly see that they are not beach girls. Skin fairer than the sand on the beach, maybe that's why they are able to contrast the color of their bikinis!!

There is this conversation shared among Grace, Sheryl and me. Grace was saying that they have to go through serious diet to maintain that figure. At one point of time, Grace have been going on diet for training, she find it very tough to keep up.

Of course its easy for them to maintain low diet la! All they do is lay their in bikinis, get themselves 'visually rape' my desperate guys like me. Anyway we (active in sports) are like Toyota trying to race a F1 events, while they are like F1, being placed as a display set in showroom. Came out with this new term: "plastic models", flawless but artificial.

2nd Biathlon:
Enough of watching. Just find it hard to focus while swimming, will tend to swim towards the shore when coming back. haha! No la.. Feel that the swim for first half is faster but when return back, seems like slowed down alot! Anyway, exit for run this time is 23+mins. Running this time round is better, familiarized with the route and better "warm up" thou the legs are bit of sore. Can back at 46:31, slower by 16sec, but ran faster. Owned by Yan Ling.. emo liao~

This time, cant see the models, not sure where they went? But cant be bothered. Unlike usually training session, today i was so tired that after the shower, i took Squid's ride back. Still got Rahimah's Bday Celebration at 1730 this evening..


I ate Sand and drank Sea Water for Breakfast
