one more lap

It’s heartening to know that the ninja training with dearie and yenling helped. I have very little time to springboard to keep up with her but I saw the gap narrowed yesterday. I am never a fast twitch runner and I dread intervals. But I just couldn’t let it go without a fight. Well, I am not expecting a swop with her but I want to prove to myself I am not very much slower than her.

I am thankful yenling is helping to pace me along. Running back to clubhouse with her yesterday was great. We picked up speed in the last 1km back and it made me want to keep up. Melvin gave us an earful as it was meant to be cool down run back to clubhouse. Maybe we haven’t pushed hard enough on the track. Haha. But I appreciate having a friend to run with; someone beside me to propel me to my goal. I was telling yenling I’m going to hang her photo in front of me during the race so I will be reminded how hard I would run if she was pacing next to me.

We have a few more sessions before the actual time trial. I wonder if I can improve more to stay on par? How can I beat her? That’s a goal I am working towards for the next 2 weeks.

It was interesting to hear of the power struggle within the company and how a fellow colleague evaluated of the management through the recent years. I am not in the position to comment as I’m fairly new in the organization. I am just hoping I don’t get spun into the whole power struggle, should there ever be another one that might arise in the future.

Tomorrow is the last working day for the week. A long weekend is really nice to have, maybe because I rather stay in bed than stay in office.
