Life has been pretty different since I've taken up the challenge to attempt a Triathlon several months ago. There's the time spent on training, making new friends and a whole new view of work-life-balance.
Having to train 3-4 days a week with each session lasting 2-3 hours is not easy to maintain. There are always times when I ask myself if what I'm doing is worthwhile, and what is it for? I don't have an answer now, and I don't think I'll have answer later. At least I know I'm enjoying the entire process, the process of training and sufferring and then enjoying the race day high.
OSIM was a wash-out. Bad weather caused the organisers to cut the race short, even shorter than the sprint. The transition area was also a muddy mess, literally. This is my first major race, and my first DNS. A major disappointment.
I had to have something to fill for the missing gap, to remedy the disappointment. I found The Frog Race, a charity run-swim-run. It was to be held at ECP with an open water swim, but they moved it to NTU later, with the swim at the SRC pool.
I guess I completed the race ok. It was thoroughly enjoyable. Biscuit was also there to support and take pictures.
