Melaka A Famosa Triathlon Completed!!

I'm a finisher!

I did it! i finished it! don't ask me bout timing, it was the worst! horrible timing but i'm glad i finished it, considering i havent been training at all since my crash, and no running or swimming for bout 2 months already. i learned alot bout my weaknesses frm this experience, i learnd that sufficient training and sleep is of utmost importance! few ppl i know made sure they have sufficient sleep before race day, thats so so important! even i remember a newspaper interview of pro triathlete Courtney Atkinson (multiple champion for Singapore Osim International Triathlon and various other Triathlon Races)one of the keys to his success and victory is a good long sleep of at least 8hours the nite before race. for me i had bout 3hours of sleep. and on race day my legs were sleeping, it was a bad day for me on the bike, i struggled, alot, few times felt like throwing in the towel, my legs were just not there with me on race day, and by the way the bike course for A Famosa Triathlon makes Singapore Osim Triathlon bike course a piece of cake! this was extremly tough for me looking at the conditions i had to go thru but by God's grace i finished it, thanks to all who prayed for me and encouraged me! ya'll rawks!




In triathlon every finisher is a winner! and the finisher medal taste sweeet!




At the swim start, can spot me?
