Congratulations to All who participated in the OSIM Triathlon! For all those who braved the VERY CHOPPY WATERS during the OD race... WELL DONE!! Give yourselves a pat on the back!! =o)
Swimming has never been my strong discipline so just having to swim is pretty much a challenge in itself. Adding CHOPPY Waters... May I emphasize... SUPER CHOPPY Waters with Strong currents... were additional challenges I could definitely do without! hahaha... But nevertheless... I survived! Being tossed about in the sea and drinking mouthfuls of sea water (not by choice!) truly humbled me in the hands of Mother Nature!
After negotiating the currents and waves for 750m (first loop) and heading straight back into the water AGAIN for the next 750m (second loop) simply took courage! At the end of it all... was it worth it? Yes... most definitely... It was an experience I've gained and lessons of deteremination and perseverance learnt which I wouldn't have otherwise! With each race and whatever the challenges, we always grow from strength to strength!
