ok so it was announced yesterday that i will be running on the big day. =) Realised that this is only the first time i've acutally ran in nationals schools x-country.
when i was in sec2, i was merely a reserve, and my job was to stand at a part of the route to cheer for them. The team came in 4th back then, and i could still the statisfaction i felt (even though i didn't run). i could still rmb how we were eagerly anticipating for the results to be announced and how we were jumping with joy and it was announced. lol, i still rmb that i got a trophy too, though reserves weren't suppose to get. when they were giving out the trophies for the other divisions, desmond and i realised that there were 8 people taking per team and i was like 'wasn't there suppose to be only 6?' lol so we asked mr. tan abt it and ended up running around the big crowd towards the prize recipients area and made it just in time. yea, that was all in the past...
this year, the 'b' division boys aren't expected to win at all. all we could aim for was top10... nevertheless, i'll still run my very best. who knows? the other schools may all flop, haha. 'c' girls... um... jiayou eveyone, go for champion! 'c' boys, the 4th postion is within ur reach. beat RI like how we beat ASC(I) in 2003. good luck! 'b' girls, dont worry about the huayi tag-team duo, no point worrying anw, haha.
the big day is just a couple of days away, and my heartbeat is beating quicker with each passing minute. scenes of the route and the grandstand keep flashing through my head. well, all i can do now is to keep calming myself down, keep hydrated, eat well, rest well and... dont get sick/injured,
all the best team rvhs!
