[[SAFSA Swimming Heats Day 2]]
50m Butterfly (Finals)My time : 35.35s Best time : 30.1sConclusion: No fight100m Butterfly (Finals)My time : 1m31sBest time: 1m01sConclusion: No fightDamn... it's one hell of a day....
I nearly didn't make it to the finals for 50m Butterfly... My bloody goggles suddenly broke the moment I plunged into the water.... I have been using this pair of goggles for a couple of years, and there had not been any sign of wear and tear... Or perhaps that is the reason it gave way...
Good bye... but I won't miss you
How the hell did the plastic break???I got a rude shock sia, the moment I hit the water... My vision blurred. I knew instanly my goggles came off, however I only knew the extent of the damage to my goggles after I retrieved it... The brief interuption was enough to break my momentum... I had a hard time kick-starting my swim all over again and moreover I was swimming blind. Couldn't judge the distance enough to pace myself... Surprisely, my timing was the same as last week's... And fortunately, my arm hadn't give way so far... My margin was barely a hair's breadth...After the swim, I was cursing myself that I had to break something each time I swam... At that very instance, I tripped over the stairs and nearly fell face flat... Shit... luvky for me, I was holding no to the wall....Thought it's a good thing that I made it to the finals for every event so far... It would mean to say that I would be taking 5 events at one go on Friday.... This is crazy man... I can only sprint for at most 2 events..
