Penatnyer saya ber-triathlon... zzz all the way back KL...

The previous triathlon report, was somehow technical & not much of side stories. Here's some human connection. Going to my first triathlon after 1 year plus; it felt a lil bit awkward. I sort of like being more reserved, more timid & less self confidence. Had not trained more than 2 hours, & we are talking about a triathlon. Mum had just recently took back my licence to train early in the morning, as Aydeen is getting more attached to me now.

At the race, I banked on some familiar faces for some comfort. Seeing Jaja with her smile, Michelle with her friendly gesture, Wendy & the rest, I felt comfy. Then, saw Abu & family, chit chat N felt more relaxed. Hub & Aydeen was with me all the time. Telan some powergel, then swim kicks in. I just followed the crowd. Swimming was still ok, as I knew there was more to come. Only heard yesterday that someone got stung by jellyfish. Kesian..

Out of the swim, biking leg pulak. Telan another powergel. First followed Wendy on her pace; then too fast to trail as she caught up with another platoon. Eventually I slowed down. Then, came 2 God-sent angels & drafted them all the way. 214 & 251, tq very much. On the last lap, I sensed that the speed was dropping. Quickly, gulped some powergel. I automatically handed 214 my remaining gel. Euwww, now to think of dat, with my saliva & everything.. Yikes.. Luckily he refused, told me it was only 40km. (i was already sounded like having asthma attack) Our train picked up more people as we rode. I really missed road biking.

Transitioned & continued running. Scorching-hot-near-the-beach run was not as expected. There, slowly being taken over by some of the triathletes. Mentally out. Abu was there, accompanying the run. Saw Jaja at both the U-turn. & saw alot of others. Water was out by then. Resorted to picking up left over water. Buat tak tau jer.. =) Habis2, quickly check my tan line, & its there =) yeay.. ATM had organized a good race..

today, back to same schedule, keje & jaga anak..
