bintan triathlon 2008



spend a sunny day in bintan last saturday week with daniel for his race. we woke up super early on saturday and hopped on the 7:30am ferry to bintan. or as daniel calls it, our cruise ship! (while yingjie is cruising the alaskan ocean on her romantic cruise getaway... *sigh*) heaven knows why we needed to be there so early for a 2pm race!

spent couple of hours mucking around, walking around the resort, attended the visually scary race briefing. im such a wuss, if i were to be racing, that would be when i chicken out with all the talk about heat injuries, broken bones, bike accidents.. woah!

the race went very well, i used to find it odd that people would sit around and do nothing but now i have my 'race day' act all figured out. with the route map, i can figure out how and when i can catch little videos and pictures of the boy and his friends in action, then i bring a magazine or some crafty things to work on in between and according to estimated end time, i position myself in shady comforts of coconut trees, armed with camera ready to catch the finish! easy peasy and a very relaxing way to idle the afternoon away. deaf calls me a "WAG" haha.. i'd like to think im turning into quite the professional! ;)

now, how to convince daniel to race in pink.. *scratches head*
