Overtrain? I felt super sick with a temperature of 38.6 yesterday night after 1 hour of cycling... I dunno why suddenly I felt the illness and crampness in my body while cycling... it was totally scary... I was at Mandai Road where I felt that I can't have the energy to pedal... I lost strength in my legs... but I can't stop... if I stop... what can I do??? Using my mental strength... I really force it hard and push my body to home... upon reaching home... I quickly take a shower... but I felt really really cold as the water poured on me... damm... I knew I was sick and felt the fever effect... I laid on my bed and covered with blankets and took panadols and wet towel on my forehead and neck... It became much better as my temperature lower... I force myself to sleep in the end as I know I need to go for a course today...

I felt better today... but i'm still pondering why I could recover so fast and why I suddenly felt the illness and crampness... thinking thru... is it I overtrain? or the beef steak that I eat which did not digest... or it was a long tiring day at work... hmmm.... till now... I still don't know... Think my next training will be on friday and I hope I can fully recover by tmrw...

Sat - 26th Sep - My mum bought nice bee hoon in the morning before I start cycle... It's been quite a while since I cycle... However... I manage to cycle about 3 hours 10 mins... and I feel good as I finish the cycle... Went 1 big round from Woodlands to Sembawang... then to Mandai Road... then to Kranji... then to Lim Chu Kang... all the way to the junction of cementry... then to CCK and back to Mandai Road again... to Sembawang and back to Woodlands... Now I 'm thinking where can I head to tmrw... :)...

As I have tickets to F1... So I went to F1 on Sat and Sun night... It was definitely a good experience to witness the drivers... the whole atmosphere... the grandstand of the road... however... I definitely won't pay the price of the tickets... not worth it... TV is much better...

Mon - 28th Sep - Went for a 50 mins swim where I just went round the swimming pool as no one was swimming... it was about 1.30pm... at about 7pm... I begun my 1 hour and 2 mins run... I ran real slow as i'm afraid I might have cramps... but after 50mins... I still feel great... So I push the last 12 mins where I started to open my legs and run fast... The end was great as I did not feel any effects on my legs... Now I hope tmrw don't have arching... :)...

I'm back here again after more than 1 year... Why? Cos I'm thinking of blogging the trainings that I will need to go through for Ironman Langkawi on 28th Feb 2010...

It was in July when I went for Hair for Hope where I became Botak for the 3rd time in my life... The feeling of wanting to get fit again and do the "things" I used to passion about... saw the Western Australia IM but was in dec where I do not think I have time to train... went to see Langkawi IM... Feb... holidays for students... good time to take leave and compete too... So I decided to swim, bike and run again... Initially... I hestitated as I do not know what my fitness level is... however... after competing a 1 hour and 30 swim in end August... and manage to run about 1 hour and 10 mins plus cycle about 3 hours... within about 6 weeks... I think is really possible for me to train up for IM... So on 31st August... I sign up and there's no turning back...

I had a 3 weeks break in Chiang Rai and Taiwan due to work and leisure commitment... but i'm back in training again... tuesday... I went for a 40 mins run and 30 mins swim... wed... 1 hour cycle and 40 mins swim... thou today I play bball for 2 hours... I will want to train tmrw!!! I really hope to pick up my trainings in Oct to Dec... I hope to peak in Jan where I will taper down in Feb... I guess this is the plan... :)...

dunno why suddenly i feel like blogging today... it's been like 10 months since the last time i blog... why?!?!?! I guess is time and getting the "old" age factor i guess...

so why did i blog today? hmm... no idea too... but it will be nice to state the things i did... haha...

Another year in the same place i work... doing mostly the same stuff again for the year... bored... yeah... quite bored... but i dun think i'm changing at the moment... cos i somehow develop a feeling of the things i done there... at the same time... becoming more lao there... is a good thing u know... :)

Been to hk last dec and went to some batam too... then in May going to Bali.... is life about travelling? I'm quite confused at the moment... dunno which direction or aim to go... why is that? i'm unsure too... Maybe i guess is time to settle in like most humans do... Suddenly i feel there is just too many things in the world to do and yet you can't accomplish all... but what's the meaning to accomplish the things??? I guess most of us (20++) will suffer this as this is know as the quarter life crisis... but why at this age?? haha... i have no idea too...

but i guess life is still important... you still need to carry on to live on... you get to be happy, sad, angry, laugh, smile, KPOing n etc... haha... that's life... :)

Definitely it have been some chaotic weeks for me... rushing here... rushing there... all because of my sis wedding and orientation program holding at the same period...

Relatives came 0ver from m'sia last week... then there was the handover and joe wedding... then there was my sis s'pore wedding... then there was the new car... after that... it was the major orientation program... then the train trip to KL.. off i go on my uncle car to ayer tawar... to my sis wedding in m'sia... goodness me... I dunno even where i can start to write... forget to bring my driving licence... pay $50 ringget to the police... and many many more happening stuff... I really need a break which i had today as i took a day leave... but still... tonight will be my "kids" test... then tmrw my dad operation and my "kids" meeting... one week time will be the fiesta and one month time will be another major event... OMG... thinking of it... time is passing so fast...

Currently in my head is to settle all the post event of the orientation program... dunno where to start now but definitely it will flow to me once i go back work... man... i need a life!!!

Amazing... Its been like 3 months since i Blog... work life totally took the "time" of me... seems like i have no free time at all... even if i have... i rather stay at home to rest... I had not participate in any competitions recently cos i feel i have done all that before... there is only one thing i'm looking forward too... it's the car... a suzuki liana...

How will the car change my life? What will i do with it? Hmmm......

I had discuss with CS the other time to train for adventure racing... however i also need a good bicycle... need $$$ again.... man... another thing in my mind now.... do i have the $$$ to support the car and to buy adventure racing equipments and races? I wana participate in overseas races cos i feel the local races are not interesting anymore...

I have another worry too.... but won't say it out as i know people will read my blog... hee...

It's so difficult to ensure all these worries will be over... sometimes i think i need to make a choice out of all these worries... but which one to choose??? it's a tough one... nbrmind... work makes me forget these stuff... but work also takes away your life.... :)

A new year... a new beginning... err.. nah... not really... haha.... but so many things happen between 31st to 2nd Jan...

31st... down to PM to drive boat to Sembawang... but 2006 seems so unlucky... we drove the boat to Keppel west fair way... suddenly engine failed... we tow the boat back to PM... we tried to drive the boat out again... Keppel fairway... engine died again... what?!?!? we tow the boat back again... by the time.. it was in the evening... so we had to pull the boat up... then we tried another boat... shits... the boat failed again... OMG... so tired of launching and pulling up the boat repeatedly... then CL came... seems like boat n him is a perfect match... n he fix the boat... had the countdown in PM where we saw fireworks in RSVC... quite cool...

1st... At last... we drove the boats pass Keppel fairway... but we took an hour... damm long... n slowly to Sentosa... East Coast... Changi... then to Sembawang... Paddle with pat in the most lousy kayak ever known as "EXPLORER"... we suayed left n right n left n right from Sembawang to Changi... but the worst PART of the journey is where Pat n I paddled so hard on the RIGHT... the kayak still moved to the RIGHT!!!! What a NIGHTMARE!!!!!

2nd... Become the TL of the trip... good kayaking from Changi till Naval Base... then the against current came... what a strong current... had to paddle hard to move... then i tried to tied a rope at the Naval Base Bouy... then some announcement made n a black dinghy came out... haha... but everything was fine... to East coast... it was easy...

Overall the trip is great... is good for the SPA to have an experience and exposure to these kayaking... but i still miss Round Island... hee... tired and burnt esp my face...
