ROAD RUN TODAY. 3.6km.
the following is an account of my run today. for my own records. its gonna be boring so anyone reading this just skip the whole chunk. :)
it was one of those days where emotions ran high. ran with dearest jo today!! we came in 5th/6th in the ip cohort.. which has around 180 girls. crossed the finish line together with a timing of 17.35min. I LOVE YOU JO!! I WOULDNT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT YOU!! really. was only aiming for top 10. we both started really fast. i was like thinking, "oh shit if we keep this up im gonna be dead before i reach the finishing line." haha. then i was thinking like "heck la just run until i gonna die then ask jo go first".
then we just kept running, and running, and running. by the time i turned the bend i was gonna die already.. my lungs felt like they were gonna burst any moment. the stretch from nanyang to nj was the worst. i felt like i couldnt move anymore.. and i was seriously contemplating the thought of walking.. but it was just so near. and besides im sure jo would stop for me. crystal was just so near in front of us! i really really wanted to overtake but i just couldnt do it. when we passed njs gate i was kind of wishing that it would miraculously open. ran into the driveway which was another 200 metres in front (when you are dying every step feels like shit and 200 metres is alot of shit) then turned left into nj and the senior guys were there! they cheered us on! it really helped alot but i really couldnt sprint anymore.. jo mistook the ending point and she stopped like 10 metres away from it!! haha.. i had to go "jo run!" then she started running.. haha. too tired blur already. and we crossed the finish line together!! that was the most significant event of the whole run! i wanted to scream "jo we did it!" but i really had no energy to do it. but since i was nearer to the girl giving out the chips i was labelled 5th and she 6th.
aww jo.. hugged her real hard when we finished. :)
tribute to jo:
thank you for running with me today. thank you for pushing me really hard today. i dont think i have ever run this fast before. :) thank you for encouraging me all the way. Thank you for not running off and staying with me all the way. and lastly, thank you for crossing the finishing line with me!! this run really brought us closer together and i feel bonded to you somehow! Haha. im really glad i ran with you today! haha we would be 8th in jc category. not bad huh. :)
to nat:
woman you rock!! you really improved alot and im really proud of you!
to cherry:
hey dear we made it top 10!! all nj ip2 canoeists made it top ten!! yay!
to sf:
i couldnt even see your butt. you fast girl. haha.
alot of our canoeing juniors did well too. so proud of them! and the rest of the team as well.
freaking pissed with him. wa lao. whats wrong with him la. we are the elite and we take shortcut and we are only in nj cause we are talented and smart.. and we have better facilities and that we should contribute more to the school and that ip students have bad attitude and we are arrogant and we think that we are special and above everyone else.. WALAO. WHAT CRAP. we wouldnt be in nj if we didnt work hard.
went out with mich and the trackers after that. keen n fy joined us. took neos! haha
