Trifactor - Swim
Sometime back, Buay asked me to take over his swim slot for this evening, as it crashed with MR 20km progressive run.
Hmm...3km...sound a distance...so i agree.
Fast forward...i reached the Tanjong Beach(Sentosa) at 7am. Way ahead of the 8:15am start time. Feeling kiasu(not enough carpark), which is uncalled for since it is a small scale event.
The night before, it was raining and the floor was wet. The floats that indicate the line are blow off course. It has to be put back in the right position.
Tao, Gen, Piglet are there for the swim. CCF came as a supporter. Too Gal is spotted along the starting line of 1km event.
4 loops of 750m. The race start prompted at 8:15am. I was at the first wave. It wasn't a fast race and i see no reason to put too much effort in the beginning and risk blowing out the engine.
My mind keep distracted about what could happen if the "thing" happen during the race? I keep listening to the signals and keep myself relax.
First loop 19mins. Not a timing i expected, okay to start it off slow.
2nd loop is 39mins. Hmm....okay....still feeling very good.
3rd loop is 59mins. Haha...still feeling strong.
4th loop, decide to put in some effort. Cheap thrill lah.....end time...1:19hr.
Very even split for the 4 laps. Timing is slow, but acceptable. Still feel the tank have lots in reserve. It is okay. Having decent timing is good enough.
Waited for Gen to complete her first 3km swim! This lady...very daring...good....can go FAR.
Piglet finished in her 1km feeling very strong. Cool...longer distance awaits.
Tao mah...what can i say. Wahahaha...no problem more "tekan" sessions coming out soon!
Bath, head over to Vivo for lunch and coffee...:)
A good workout for everyone. Time to reflect on today event and let see how it develops in the future.
