True to the tradition....
It was HOT and SUNNY as previous year. A different bike course but it retained the same level of umph! Never ending ups and downs...
A BIG HAND to the organizers! (Clap-clap-clap) All aid stations were professionally handled. The water didnt run out while I was on the course. Plenty of support... applause to all the volunteers, helpers, rescuers, first aiders and cheerleaders. I think Mr Chan outdo himself! Kudos to Mr Chan and company. The best tri so far... Still room for improvement though... The bike course needed more marshals to eliminate people accusing others of drafting. Anyway... all of us are FAIR competitors right? Also, would be nice to have more drinks and food!!! or snacks at the end of the race... like maggie cup noodles or something. The swim course could use a little tweak too. Otherwise it was PERFECT!
I really enjoyed myself... after the fact! While racing, I was cursing! swearing! Why the hell did I get up this morning to torture myself for 6 gruiling hours! 6 hours and 12 mins to be exact. As soon as I crossed the finish line... man it was like an ORGASM! It was 27 mins better than what I did last year. What a way to celebrate my birthday!!! Yup... celebrated my birthday on the race course! But my present was given to me the day after by my daughter when she did her first Tri... she completed the swim (Sprint)... at age 7 ~~ YAY!
To all the winners.... CONGRATS! To Dino... You are one hard working triathlete... congrats on your BIG WIN! You deserve it... Kau lari macam kuda lah!
