today's the second week of training with the juniors.
i seriously think training with juniors really pushes me a lot
quite surprisingly, im more willing to go the extra mile
and i find that i had more energy than before
today we ran slope
i used to hate running slope because it is simply too steep
and i always fall behind the rest
but today i managed to keep up, and i was even able to sprint when i was near the hill-top!
the feeling is incredible
although the others from my batch must have felt it that way long time ago
but i was glad that eventually i was able to feel wad they feel when they had first complete the run without lagging behind, and having the extra ounce of energy to sprint at the very end
having juniors seriously makes me better, as a teammate
i really feel proud, and i have the feeling that i am fit to wear the dragonboat singlets which represented that im their senior
although there is still this worry hanging inside my head, that when the juniors get better, they may get even better than me
but i just hope that i can hang in there and push myself further for this period.
budden, my ankle is dying on me
haha. i can feel the discomfort even when im walking
its not painful when i walk, just that it feels weird having some strain or discomfort ard my ankle while walking
the ankle strain started during the AHM run
after the run i was squatting down to rest, and that is when i felt the strain
but funnily, i din had the strength to stand up so that the strain does not worsen
had to wear ankle guard whenever i run, but still manageable
just that when i removed the ankle guard, there is this weird feeling coming from it
had to take care of my ankle man!!!
marlau came to talk to me with regards to my ankle just now
she said must take extra care, if not i'll prob suffer from knee prob, then hip prob if the strain on my ankle persists
which is quite scary because i felt pain coming from my knee joint earlier this yr
but i just disregard it, thinking that prob it's because i ran too much
haha. but come to think of it, mayb my ankle prob started out at that time, and it just became worse and noticeable after the marathon.
but anyway, i feel that i can still hang on :)
that there is still more room for improvement.
that i can realli be fit to be considered a part of the Phoenix team
that i can be finally called a teammate, without feeling a sense of guilt
it's the last yr that i can make a difference
that i can impress the others that i can really do it, that i can really make it
have to grab this last chance to prove myself.
that's the goal that i want to achieve: to graduate and leave the team proudly
I love my world:D
