Regatta 2008

Regatta's over, I guess it can be marked as an event to mention in 2008 for me. After all this is the race that I had trained for the last few months. It was the thing that I went to gym regularly for, and even ran regularly.

A rowing competition seems simple, 5 boats, 20/10 men in each boat, and you compete. But it is actually very difficult to win. For 20 ppl to be in the same boat and do the same thing, to want the same thing, and lastly to put in what they need to put in to achieve the results that all the people in the boat wants, is a feat. Maybe it's because sometimes people think of it as a simple sport. It actually is a straightforward one, but straightforward one doesn't mean it's requires little effort.

Now I feel like going to the gym more often, doing more weights, and run to become fitter. I hope everybody trains harder to gain the strength we need to win.
