mmds putrajaya - completed. akin to last year, the bike leg was the killer. encountered a major hiccup during 1st lap of bike. couldn't understand why everyone was zooming pass me..i thought my legs were dead or something.. i was snail-ing away.. really a vast difference from the last time i did the same course in sept 05. 2/3 through the course, i finally couldn't stand it anymore and stopped at the side of the expressway. peered over my handlebar and found the right side of the brake pad against the rim. shit. my brake calipers were misaligned.. no wonder i was like a snail and my legs felt like a tonne. quickly adjusted it and pinched my rear wheel. the psi in there is definitely lesser than 120. thanks to the floor pump that didn't work. it released more air in my tyre than added on.
after the pause.. i was rushing to make up for the lost time. thank goodness i caught up with some mtbs.
the climbs felt never ending. up and down up and down. run was great. flat. dead flat. and really thank God for good weather. it became really cloudy towards the end of the race. the 2nd run was made alot alot alot easier. last yr's 10km run was a killer for me.
aug9 : desaru ride vs working at rl, i picked the former. woohoo.. it'll be fun riding with grace and the other people from trifam. =) i'm giving up work at rl for a fun day at desaru..hehehe
signed up for desaru him despite knowing it clashes with working sat. i'm bent to go for it since i missed it last year.
2 more days to major change in my life.
time to leave for swim training. riding up with my market bike. it's going to take a long time to get to queenstown pool! =
