NTU ODAC ATC 09

My long-awaited comeback!

This post is rather overdue as well.. Just got the pictures from of our ATC race that we did on 7th June. We did rather well.. and got interviewed by Jade Seah too! At first the race was supposed to be featured on Channel 5's Sports@sg. Well, it did. But they cut off the sections where we got interviewed! DARN!

Race -wise, this was a rather easy race but terrain was good and the sections were fun too! We adopted a rather slow-and-steady approach and by virtue of being in detail one, we lead all the way from the starting horn right to the finish line. It was good pacing and navigation. One regret was the climbing section which i didnt complete coz it was really tough due to the insufficient amount of tiles and i was smearing all over the place.

Running and kayaking was easy for us. Managed to build a healthy lead, the bike section was short too.. Albeit irritating coz of the sandy terrain.. had to push quite alot.. Then abit of river-crossing here and there.. quite fun..


This is the horrible wall which i didnt expect to flop it! I was already at the top but super no strength coz I had to take a clue that wasnt mean for me.. I was virtually crimping every grip.. No TILES!!



Thank God for the race! It was a true blessing I would say! Most importantly i enjoyed this race more.. Being in control was damn shiok! Kudos to Eve for being such a strong teammate and one who really pushed and encouraged me as well! Many more races together!
