Okie now down to writing my experience of my very first ironman 70.3!
Surprisingly i manage to get some shut eye .. was not excited as i thought i was going to be funny. I guess all the waiting for the actual day to come i was more burnt out then anything. Got out of bed at about 5am ... check my stuff for the last time as i did not want to forget anything.... got out of the doors at about 520... manage to hope on to a cab by 530 ... some how the cab uncle seemed more excited then me .. zooming pass 2 d lights speeding all the way... an i sure he has no idea what the hell was happening actually... got to F3 carpark by 545 thats how fast cabby was going lol ... Got out of the cab started to walk to F2 which seem like miles away.. i thought i was walking fast enough but somehow there were ppl over taking me on the walk as well lol ...
Got to T1 area ... there was already along line of ppl getting their numbers printed on to their arms, but the line moved rather fast so in no time i got my criminal number printed on me : 603... went off to my bike to get everything ready .. helmet, no. tag and such ... there was this nagging feeling behinh my left knee cap ... thinking to myself that i can swim it off later and things would go fine ... but it did not .... when you get to my bike leg you will know why... chatted up with titi, yanglyn, ken , gary boy, dion, daryl .. and many more ppl from trifam..... the time seemed to pass very fast ... always happens i guess when you don't want something to start...
Walked our way over to the start line ... the pros were the first to go off then came the age groups ... my wave was to go off at 730... surprisingly enough dad manage to find me in the mass of ppl took a few photos of me .... i decided to start from the back an make my way to the front of the swim in the water ... did not want to get caught up in the washing machine up front .... okie thats all i have time ... till .. part 2 comes along .. laterr...... I AM IRONMAN 70.3 muahahaha .... sry can't help myself ...
