and so the countdown begins
as of today, there are 2 more trainings left to race. my last 2 trainings ever. i need to buck up, now or never. the stroke's not right? gotta correct it. not focused enough? then it's time to focus. never row on panadol. have to stay strong and healthy.
saw the 2004 race video again. no matter how many times i see it, i get overwhelmed. it really is overwhelming; how we came from the back and charged all the way to 1st place. how boon chin 'tricked' us into an early charge tt propelled us from last to first place.
it could be done. we did it then. i think we can do it this sat and this sun.
morale is important. don't be afraid. don't be scared. we've come so fucking far. we won't give up now. we have a common objective, we have a common mind. break through the barriers tt hold us back.
i'm giving my all. from now to this sunday, i will do nothing but breathe eat sleep live rowing. i will not let my girls down. i will carry your weight. i will feel the boat. i will do my part to get us where we have to go. this i promise.
