ooo.. long time no update.

haha. yeah so today was our 200m. everyone of us separated into different heats. was super nervous before that, i guess the trackers could tell. i was ranting all the way ha. real sorry to those who had to listen to me! haha know i was a bit.. crazy.

when the gun went off, off we went! i can still vividly remember what happened throughout the race.

and so every race has something for me to learn from-

stay cool and relax! never be so tensed up. never. focus and concentrate! i was sort of demoralised during the second part so i slowed down. homestretch! work on it, work on it. i realised this happens whenever i run: i'll punk-chek at the homestretch because the ending point looks so far ahead, it isn't like the curve i love.

it's all up in the head. strong mentality!!

needless to say, i was utterly disappointed. i knew i didn't do well when i crossed the line. the official timing confirmed my anticipation. i got my PW -- Personal Worst. for a moment i was devastated. whoa the moment i saw the results i was.. ahh. beyond description.

but it's all right. i've thought it through. it just a failure. it isn't gonna put me down. just gotta try harder next time. learn and reflect on the race. and keep in mind what's the ultimate goal.

to all those who ran: good run there yeah. perhaps most of us are disappointed with our timings. but well i guess we gotta pick ourselves up. think about those elite runners, how many times have they failed, and finally become the best of the best? take this as an experience, a chance for us to learn. after every failure, what we got to do is to train and work harder for the next race. do something about it, only then can we improve. remember our ultimate goal is NEXT YEAR'S NATS. we still have time. jiayou guys! we're all getting stronger and stronger by the day.. we can do it man! love you guys. (:

and special thanks to those who came down to support us.. really appreciated that.

ha guess that's all..

what's inside and beneath..
