Last year's was held at Sentosa. This yr's at East Coast park. Signed up for the sprint event (750m swim, 5km run) at almost the last minute, got myself the last no. tag (6047). As usual, preparations were minimal! Had butterflies in thie morning and had to visit the loo a few times to get the flies out! When the swim starts...all were well....till I began zig-zagging through the murky-oil polluted waters. Now I realise by looking up every -5-6strokes are not enough.....every strong current/wave will simply make me veer off-course again!
The run was more straightfoward. Starting from the transistion zone at carkpark F2, the turning point as at the chalet. Finished in a time of 58mins..yeah....last yr's was 59mins. Well, all in all a great morning!
Here's the jog just before entering the water. Shot by reknowned photographer Wenhui!
Cheers!
