Safra AVventura

Hey guys, Oh god Yeah, the photos of the safra AVentura race on 9th sept are out! And as promised, i will blog it! Really want to thank Mr. Goh for all the beautiful shots he took with his camera! Just a brief intro to this race - it's an event which involves biking, running, swimming, navigating, climbing and stuff yeah. It was a REAL good experience. Any outdoor junkies should join this race.

First off, let's introduce the participants of the race...

From the girl's team, we have...

JIA! Sucking like no one's business.

FengYing! Being as shy as ever.


Linken and me! And no, we're not in an affectionate relation.

So the race started off at 7.30, Tampines Safra. Mr. Goh only got the shots of us in the mid and end of the race as he couldn possibly lug his gigantic camera all through the race -.-. Heres one of the few photos he took when we were stuck in a bottle neck.. Sheesh.. Goddamned wasted 2 hours there. But we bonded with each other! Haha.

And so the four of us waited enthusiastically for our equipment.

And waited.

`And i got cramps. And as the chinese saying goes, xiu sou pang guan - linken seems to be perfect candidate for that cheng yu.

AND WAITED

AND FINALLY GOT INTO THE WATER. WOOTS.

Aw, isn't that so gentlemenly? Linken aiding Feng Ying in dragging the bike.

After crossing the river, we got back onto our bikes and continued cycling. Oh god, i swam with one cramped leg throughout the whole river, bet you have never tried that before. Woooo... it sure was... exhaustive. From then on, Mr Goh couldn't follow us any further so we continued on our own.

SAAADDLY, on the way, the girls team were forced to stopped as fengying didn't feel veerry well. poor poor feng ying... you got to take care of yoursef, yeah?

Okay, so linken and me proceeded on and i just have to say I WASN 'T AT ALL PLEASED WITH THE NAVIGATION/ORIENTATION TEST THING. Crap, it was an utter screw up and i don't wish to talk about it. I'm sure i got MY bearing correect... and then we went...

ROCKCLIMBING!

Linken was my belayer. He was such a good belayer. =]

and obviously, i was the climber! i scuttled up to the 5m mark in mere seconds. hahaha. I'm so narcissictic. I call this one, 'The Leap of Faith'

Finally! The Reaching of the finishing line! Oh god it was just so euphoric.

AND YES. RELISHING OUR HARDWORK.

And the four of us reunited again as one big happy family! Yay!

yk out....!
