Turf city long run

Initially most of us thought today would be another trial, especially the girls. In the end, it wasn't. Mr Wong took over Mr Chen today cuz Mr Chen has something on at JB.

MArla & I was the first two late comers. 2 mins late according to Mr Wong. We took a cab over from Clementi, price- ard 7 plus. We were cheated by the SBS bus driver. He said the shuttle bus to Turf City would probably reach 10 mins ltr, when Marla already waited 40 mins till den i met her to wait for 15 mins plus. It was fortunate that we went to hail a cab instead, if not we'll be ultra late. Reason being, the first shuttle bus starts at 10.30 or 10.45 am ? wow.. but the time we were at Clementi was 8.20. And Marla, was there since 7.30?

The girls did 2 rds of 3.5 or 3.7km.. Does anyone knows which one? Then the guys did 2 rds of 4.5km? oh ya.. Kok Loong came late.. We saw him onli after our first round.. HA.. After he finishes running, told him that we came in cab, he must feel bad.. LOL.. ah.. Anyway.. Today got Sher Jie got knee injury and Shangeri?, shall call her Shan in short, has ankle injury... So, their form weren't in tip top condition.

Mr Wong said we were going for long and slow run. In the end, he left us at some part of the route and was way ahead. He was with us, the girls, while the guys went on their own.At the second round, we were asked to start opening up our strides at the 1.5km mark, and then at 400m in fact that was intially claimed 300m, that we have to push all the way.

Today we saw a pretty white pony =)

There were a primary school track and field team running their way too ( clapclap)

Then for sec schs, saw St Nic, Commonwealth etc.. JCs wise, VJC, RafFLEs, HwaCHONg` HAhaa.. heard that VJV ran 3rds of 4.5km..

Oh ya, girls, who wants to buy FBT shorts tell Mr Wong the size. Wednesday getting vests. HA.. Mr Wong said said must be official such that the vests are going to be presented, like commandos like dat, to prove that we are worthy.. Wow.. Oh ya, it's a pity Ying Hao can't come support us on Nationals. He's going NS next tue? He's one of the senior that often visit us nowadays, other than hui yin of cuz =)

While running, we girls actually had thoughts abt Nationals. The whole team is going to wear the same colour socks, same shoes if possible since most of us have the same, same colour underwear! lol.. *PINK*

After training, we went to Giant, in the end most of us didn't buy things. Mr wong was with us. He bought the energy drink power which i forgot what's the brand is. That was meant for us to drink on Tues? Heard that other schools' athletes are provided with pills. Ha. Of cuz, with herbal components with no chemical ingredients. According to Mr Wong, the Organisation is willingly to fork out 1 million dollars to anyone who catch runners who eat pills that are chemically madeup. Coool.........

Some of us, Dawei, WaiChing, Winston, KokLoong, TeChun, YingHao and me ate western food at a place called BBQ something. Oh no, i have to admit my bad memory. Anyway, there was this attractive $3.90 set meal that tempted us to eat there. Of cuz, it onli applies to the basic ones like chicken chop, fish n chip, chicken cutlet etc. Despite that, the feedbacks were not bad. Have a comment on the ice tea which cost $1.90. Techun bought that, and yeah, it was presented to him just like the sample one, ice tea with lemon, orchid n pineapple skin? ha.. It was a unique combination. We made the person in charge walking around by ordering at different times and paying separately, such that he has to walk back to get change for us. Also, we spoke in china accent. ha. Hui Xian, Jem, Marla went to Giant again cuz there was no slurpee in 7 eleven. Spoilt.

Dawei n Waiching went Church after that, and so the rest of the team headed to the Ang mo kio shuttle bus except Marla, Ying Hao, Kok Loong, Techun n me heading towards Clementi. Ying Hao separated with us when he alighted at the main street outside Turf. Before that, he was talking about orientations, camps all dat.. They reallly sounded fun. HA. Left with the four of us, when crossing road, something dropped on Kok Loong's head. ah. Dunno wat's that. Scary, we still thought his head bleed. In the end we headed to Mac, Kok washed his whole head? ha.. If WaiChing ard, wonder what he will say.. Ha

In the end, today didn't go see Track at Gombak, the weather was so bad that there were explosive thunders and lightening bolts. It was as if we were undergoing earthquakes? haa.. Anyway, tml also have. Pei Xi will be running, Mr Wong will be coming. Next week also, and perhaps next nex week?

Everyone jia you jia you! TEAM INNOVA!
