Now, I will ride December 6, 2005
Posted by clayton in : workout , add a commentWhy? I signed up for the "Challenge 1000km". Poor store owner, he caught a cold and he was barely able to speak. Which reminds me, I walked into the store and he said, "hi" in a really small voice, so I whispered back, "hello" because I thought something was going on and that I had to be quiet. Then he made a little laugh and talked to the other customer, "See, everybody whispers…" And then he told me about his cold…hehe. After that, I bought a computer for my mtb and signed up.
The ride: I rode 40km and it was a tough one today. There was a bit of rain and stormy winds, it felt like a typhoon came by. I didn't get into aero position because of that and it was still hard to control the bike so I went no faster than 35km. After I came back home, I hurried to the swimming pool cause I was going late, I only got home 20min before the swim!!!
The swim: Swam a total of 2100m. I wasn't able to catch up with the kick drills, who cares, it's still only my third time…but I think I got the hang of it, my coach taught me a few tips on how to lift my waist up higher so that I could move faster with the same amount of kicks. It was another tough one but much easier than the first time…YES!!! I wasn't wiped out today:-)
Tomorrow: I'll go to school and FOCUS, I really wanna get a high score, I mean a REALLY high score for my 3rd term exams. After that, I'll have a 10km run and then back into the pool, wonder if I'll make it tomorrow.
