____Too bad, So sad, Better luck next time
After all the training, the interval, 4 km runs, gym, swims, all I need was not to disappoint myself. Which I did.
I knew going back to Khatib will make me some sort of a celebrity, afterall being part of the AHM team once, people like the 2IC will be singing praises about me. And of course, Lim Han Song - the PTI who seen me through BMT, then reuniting at Bedok FCC, before seeing me ORD. Like a guardian angel. What I did not realise that Chen Chun has been out of training. Have got lots of respect for this particular person who seems to excel in almost everything he sets out to do. He was one of the fastest of my batch clocking an amazing 8 min 26 sec for his personal 2.4 best, but like I said, "He WAS." I could only manage a personal best of 8 min 56 sec.
As usual, the 4 static stations are a total breeze, Shuttle Run - 9.4 sec, Sit Ups - 40, SBJ - 243 cm, Chin Up - 12. Breeze.
Then came the horror result of the day, 2.4 km run. I clocked 9 min 47 sec. Not the best timings, not enough for a gold award, not enough for my 400 bucks.
Big Mistake 1 - Waiting for Chen Chun to catch up with me. The reason was probably because of previous experiences where all along running with good runners, I have gotten too used to running behind people. I am not used to leading the pack, and very inexperienced in setting the pace of the run. I MUST correct this habit if I want to improve my timing
Big Mistake 2 - Refusal to step out of my comfort zone. I was enjoying the run, and totally at ease with the pace I was setting. I lacked drive to push and do well. I was ENJOYING the cool air. A total failure in this aspect.
Big Mistake 3 - Complacency and over-confidence. Even after seeing the poor timings of the 2nd, 3rd and particularly the 5th lap, I did not urge myself to push harder and gasp for air because I felt that I could still meet the timing. In fact, I felt quite ok physiologically after the run. I should have used my fast twitch muscles to kill off the last 100m. I didn't.
A poor day to sum up. So disappointed. So in need of motivation.
Will try again on the first day of school. Impossible is nothing.
