NUS Biathlon 2006

Got up damn early on a Sunday morning.
Was out of the house by 8:15am...all set & ready to go support ahboy in his virgin biathlon!

Reached KM8 carpark by 9am. And walked over to the beach about 5 minutes away..
Wow, the whole place was littered with eye candy...of the male species. Chockful of them.
Tall, short, fair, tanned, Chinese, Ang Moh, Malay, Indian.
Had to control not to stare too hard...haha...Many "washboards" & "Vs" around too...=)

1st thought when I reached the place: "Aiyo..how to find him amongst the crowds?"
And then miraculously, within the next 30 seconds, he sauntered by, within 10 yards in front of me...haha...voila! I didn't have to go find the cow...the cow came to me.
Met Eric for the 1st time..nice guy.



The 2 happy blokes posing narcissistically.
His number was 5051, Eric's was 5067.
Hmm..think his trunks look abit gayish too...




Waited and hung around for awhile when their wave was called to gather and stand by. Wave number 5. And the horn soon rang.
Started the 800m swim at 9:55am. He came back at 10:20am. Plus minus 2mins. Spotted his bright blue trunks coming out of the water..haha..Didn't manage to see Eric come back though, but should be around the same time cos I spotted Eric at the transition area where they changed into running gear.

They started their run around 10:20am plus minus 2-3 mins. Did some tanning whilst waiting for them to come back.
Agar-Agar around 20mins later..made my way to the finishing point to await their arrival. haha...Same thing, didn't manage to spot Eric but he suddenly popped up in front of me, panting but with a huge smile on his face...sipping on a cup of Lucozade.
Hmm..he came back around 10:47.

And then we both waited..under a coconut tree..and yeah, we saw ahboy running in..10:55am. Woohoo!! He did it! =)) Completed his 1st ever biathlon! haha...proud of him..


After the race. Shacked out but happy.
Clutching goodie bag of anti-bacterial spray, T-shirt, Ricola sweets, muscle rub, and stacks of flyers.





But he was a muah chee after that..leg cramped up and he couldn't stop cursing. hahha..Proclaimed that this was gonna be his last biathlon ever...think 10 mins later he was still panting away..haha...

Anyhow, 3 of us popped by to Palawan for a bout of tanning after that..
End result: I'm slightly burnt now...with a red nose and red cheeks..
Haven't tanned for a long time plus the sun was biting today..
