Out... on a Wednesday night~~~

Booked out today at around 1900... having our off tomorrow...
This had been a very slack week... mainly briefing and packing our stuffs... think the BSLC trainees see us also buay tahan... so slack...

But we did have a very significant event, and that is the 22km round island round.. held this morning...
To be more precise, it is the last 22km run SISPEC is going to hold in Tekong island... december go PLC there then no more liao... so it is quite a significant run...
The expected time to complete was 2h 45min.... but i took 2h 54min... and i was the last guy in the whole run.... so not like me right?
Well... it's a fact... and maybe i explain abit....

At the start of the run... my pacing was quite good... kept a constant pace throughout all the way... was in the upper half of the whole run...
Then at around the 15km that part... it struck me... muscle cramp... and mind you.. it is not just some soft cramp... qutie serious leh.. can see my muscles curve inward alot... quite jia lat... i run abit... then have to stop to strectch because my calves keep cramming....
But due to my strong fighting spirit... i chose to "tong" all the way... i wanted to complete the whole thing... and so i began to run quite slowly... and even so.. have to stop and stretch.. then go again...

And so.. slowly... people began to over-take me... and at around the 20km part... i was among the last few liao... then my 2 platoon mates caught up with me... my buddy and another platoon mate... and they ranm with me all the way after that... they were qutie slow... because my buddy's knee not very good... then the other guy is accompany him one... then end up they have to accompany me..
At around 22km.. we were the last group liao...the tonner responsible for picking up all the "fallen runners" and water-point was just behind us... then the vehicle commander was KBing us because i was walking.. then when i started running and he saw that i keep cramming... then change to keep asking i want to see medic or not... abit irritating... but well... heck.... i was determined to complete the race...

And so...nearing the SISPEC gate there... i still saw another guy... and i am confident of over-taking him... i don't want to be the last.... and so... wanted to chiong...
Then.... my leg crammed up again... and so... can only slowly limp towards the finish point.... and be the last guy... actually i wasn't the last... because my other 2 platoon mates chose to take the later numbers... but the actual fact is that... i was last... damm sian... and demoralised....

But i guess i can't really blame anything ba... the thing is that maybe i wasn't used to running long distance... so the cram more serious... then also maybe because i keep going despite ealier signs of small crams coming up... then resulted in the big serious cram...
If i didn't have the cram... i could have reached under 2h 15min.. haiz... guess the only consolation is that i complete the whole thing... so i am the last guy in the last 22km run hold by SISPEC in Pulau Tekong... qutie a good consolation...

Quite "luo sou" right? Anyway i got nothing to write for today... so pour out some of my disappointment here lor...
