Gee, it's one more week to Regatta. This means this Sunday is the last day we will have training. Hmm... 4 months went by so quickly. It seems just so recently we had our race in July. We've trained considerably harder than last time, and I believe we've improved since then. Of course, we can't afford to be complacent. If we can improve, the other competitors can too. So we can be certain it's going to be a tough challenge. But what's important is that we have to be able to beat ourselves. We have to be better than before, always improving forward. Our 4 months of training will be tested in less than 1.5 minutes. So we'll just have to give it our all, so that there'll be no regret.
Anyway, race always brings out the adrenaline and excitement, and it's no different with me this time. But amid those excitement, it's important to remember to keep calm enough to row together. After all, dragon boating is a team sport.
I like this quote taken from Uniquely Singapore postcard:
In the blazing sun, I saw twenty hearts beat as one
Rain version :P
In the pouring rain, twenty movements blur into one
