::Another exhausting day at Choa Chu Kang. Today has been the most testing day for me in this nationals. Why? Simply because it is my first indivdual competitive event since my dengue setback, the 400m Hurdles Heats. Last year I was strolling into the finals, qualifying despite carrying a recovering flu. This year, the threat of not making the finals is real, even when I am nearly full fit.
Eventually I lost my sec3 junior by a gaping 5seconds. I still qualified though! Imagine how fast my junior must have ran. 58s actually, and he qualified second for B div despite just being a sec3. I can only console myself in assuming I would improve as fast as him had I not been struck down by dengue.. though I doubt it..
I am actually among the 3 bottom qualifiers who timed 63s for our runs. Although I believe I can improve that time in finals, so do the rest of the finalists. Top3 medal... I can only reminisce what I achieved last year..
Today was also Pday's Semi-Final, hope my other two projects qualify for the finals just like me. =]
