Yesterday, i tossed & turned around the bed; on the bed, rolled on the floor... 2 solid hours.. Entah ape yg difikir.. maybe just things in life, or happenings around.. or training, or thinking about going into action for Seagame 2011 - rowing. Yup, races held me sleepless. Kalau pk mende lain, tak smpai 5min da ZZzzzz.... =)
I just received an email from Powerbar Team, saying that I wasnt selected for the Powerbar Team Elite. Gloomy it is, then as i read further; i felt like sunshine after the rain~~~ there is this new team, the Powerbar Team Excel & I am part of the team =) yeay... If I were chosen to be one of the Elites, I would think over and over again, wondering if I am qualify enough to take up the challenge. Hehe, layman term, Powerbar Team Excel might mean potential underdog team. However, I really like how they expressed in their mail. It certainly has boost up my spirit, made me felt excited that I wasnt able to sleep through the night. There are 15 of the Team Elite, & 5 of the Team Excel out of the 30 people interviewed. Meaning everyone interviewed were just equally as qualify as the rest. =)
If before, I had been relying on egg whites & plain water/isotonic during training; (gels & bars are so precious as they are only used during races); now I can look forward for to a proper nutrition plan. As to perform in sports, it is a pyramid linking all 3 training, rest & nutrition in balance. Also, I really will not forget the kind deed that my friends shared some of their valuable gels during races [you know who u are =)] I sincerely would like to thank the committee for giving me the opportunity this time.. Time to kick some ass =) .. acah jer... =)
Greetings from PowerBar!
Some of you may have realised that we have finalised the Team Elite members and regret to say that you are not one of them. We have chosen only 15 Team Elite members. However I would like to congratulate all of you, as we are pleased to inform that you're selected as a member of PowerBar Team Excel 2010. PowerBar Team Excel is a new program that we are introducing this year aiming at individuals who have a passion for sports, trains hard, competitive and have potential like your goodselves to be champions one day in whatever discipline that you all are involve in. You all will be the pioneers of this program. You all are what we may call as future Team Elite members. As such, we expect that you all give the Team Elite members a good challenge and knock them off their post and you take over. So I hope you are all up for it. I hope you are all ready to give the Team Elite some nice kicking...
p/s: I like it that when i go through the requirement again, Powerbar only wants local to apply, meaning total support for the local athletes out there =) cool...
