Round Ubin Kayak Race 2005

its been a loooooong time since i last updated this blog. so now im reviving it! haha. i think i'll try to update it when i'm free.

well as the title suggests, today i went for the marathon round Pulau Ubin! it was a blast! especaially rowing in a K2. but of course it wasn't without difficulties. the waves were worrying at times, but lucky for me my partner james white is one hell of a garang and zai rower! he's totally fearless of the waves and it infected me. it was my first time using a spray cover (the red "skirt" in the pic) and it really helped to prevent water from gushing in when the boat tilted. but poor White, the waves crashed into him no less than two times and he drank some really salty water haha. we started the race in the back pack but i think we did reasonably well, finishing among the front. but we don't know our timing, that's rotten. the official said it'll be posted on their webbie. hope so.

ok here's some pics!
