Bkt Merah Tri (Part 2)

starting the bike leg
OMG Cramp.... shit...
still can smile though
playing water
the happy faces of the crazy gang

OMG my worst fears are coming true.... as i was running towards the bike transition my calf was really getting stiff.... but lucky still no cramp.... quickly got on to the bike and start pedaling like crazy.... Cateye was damaged so couldnt really know how fast i was going.... but didnt felt strong like in A Famosa.... many cyclist working in groups overtook me....... wanted to follow their pace but they were too strong..... the last straw was when the Carmen group start to gobble me up.... there was no way i was going to lose to Carmen..... Puzi Dollah the super veteran triathlete was leading the group.... was following them until the end which i made my move...... ahahaah.... still got the finishing power eh........


then disaster struck.... as i was climbing down the bike..... i had serious cramp on the left calf..... had to walk slowly back to the transition area.... wasted about 2-3mins to stretch the calf and make sure that i wouldnt cramp during the run.... by that time the group was way ahead already....... didnt had the power to follow the pace and by then forgot to look into my bike time... guess i gotta wait for the official result then......


run was uneventful ..... not much action... few guys overtook me..... i also overtook some faltering runners..... but good to finish strongly in 2:49.... 11 minutes slower than A Famosa.... guess i am not up to the fitness level yet to do 2 races in consecutive days.... if had rest then i would have done much better....... nothing to shout about....


next race .... PD here i come............
