owned.


my intra school track & field race's over. i think my relay team (4 X 200m, mixed) came in either 5th or 6th. 

disappointed in the result? yes. 
disappointed in myself? no.

simply put, the rest of the teams are from track and field (the CCA itself) and i believe we finished top of the non-track & field teams. i was the 2nd runner for my team and i was the 2nd (or 3rd?) last runner to receive the baton from my 1st runner.

the moment i got the baton from kimberly (1st runner), i was completely in the "zone". the world went silent and all i could think of was to hunt down the front runners.

the leading pack started way ahead of me and i was on damage-control mode. managed to chase down 2/3 runners and that was it. we lost further ground with our 3rd runner.

though we were completely trashed and binned, the race was a really good experience for me. races never fail to humble me each time; from 100m to 42km. the lessons taken away from each taught me time and time again that i must constantly strive to push myself further. and harder. 

there is no finishing line in life and in running.

and i still enjoy long runs more than sprints i guess.
to kimberly, roxanne and ahnun. we did good. =)
