Tuesday’s TKD training was tiring, more tiring than I care to admit. Kicking non-stop for close to 150 repetitions wasn’t exactly rejuvenating and I found myself struggling to breathe. My legs were getting heavier at each repetition and my muscle fatigue was definitely at a all-time high – not since the KL – Singapore expedition last year have I experienced such fatigue that totally discouraged me from further physical activities for the next couple of days.
I was disappointed that a thunderstorm swept through Sembawang on Thursday, totally grounding my chances of cycling to school. I grabbed the opportunity to do so this morning despite my still aching muscles but all went well. I got into a close shave with an impatient lorry driver but then again, it’s just another common occurrence in the life of a cyclist. I met a Caucasian on his road bike as I entered NTU – I have seen him around before – and I guess from his age that he may be a lecturer. It’s good to see others actively cycling to work. =)
I hope the weekend turns out great, though I have quite a bit of work to clear! I find our coach’s motivational talks quite inspiring. When you are faced with adversity, dare to push your limits. Tell yourself you are the best and you can do it!
