My most satisfying moment are obviously the getting back the strenght to train gradually. Going for Tri Kenyir & Kayak races was a fun moment. I thank hub & Stef very much for being so supportive during the races. Something to share here.

Kenyir Tri
Doing triathlon at 4months pregnant is definitely for self satisfaction, as well to reduce the kegatalan fo tris.. They are addictive. I knew this would be my only tri for this year, hence MUST DO. Lagipun bawak hub g honeymoon syok gak* die yg bawak i*

Swimming was extremely easy, as my timing improved slightly by mere seconds. However, took extra precaution to avoid human contact at all. Logically, unless we are backstroking; there wont be much trouble to stay in the swim course as the stomach faces down. Yup, calculation was made before signing up for the race *actually da sign up baru nak access the risk*

Biking would be the major obstacle here, as the road is hilly. No accident is allowed during this course. Also, to make things worse, I had not been training on bike since long, considering road biking is one of the sports whereby accidents do happen regardless you are being extremely cautious or not. Well, cycling time sucks..

Running by this time around, most of them are already completing the 2nd loop. I ran with my mind, not my leg, i guessed. Stef was kind enough to accompany me during the 2nd loop. Its a cooling down session for her. Felt happy that she got first Malaysian woman overall =) Crossing the finishing line was rewarding, though remarks being made here n there. Gemuk, Slow, Apasal?? etc... Well its better to be labelled fat than not allowed to participate, right?? =) Well, lucky for not many participants, babe managed to get 9th & tiny cash reward. Had honeymoon after that with Hub.

Kayak race 2 weeks after was another vacation for both of us =) berjalan2 ajer.
