Bad day

Today went for the IPPT , cleared all static station with ease. Feeling confidence that I will be able to pass the last hurdle , 2.4km run. Weather was good and not very windy. Out of our 6 guys, only 3 managed to pass. Congrat to them. Too bad for me , i failed. Sob sob. The first 1km was good but when reaching the guard post, my thigh started to feel the strain. PAIN!!! Urghh die liao how to pass like that. I persist with the pain running for the rest of the 2.4km. Little did i know that I am unable to finish the running within the required timing.

I FAILED AGAIN

But I can only attempt only after I recovered from my thigh injury. Giving 2 weeks of excuse from the MO, told to rest and not aggravated the injury.

Once back at home, I went to consult a Chinese sinseh (practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine on my injury. The chinese sinseh put bamboo cup onto on back. He also put crocodile clip onto the back of my thigh. You can feel the electrical pulses triggering on the back of the thigh. Lying on the bed for ard 15-20minutes, feeling the bamboo cups and the electrical pulses on the skin. Finally, he stretched my back an you can hear the crackling sound. The feeling was so good, you can feel the release of the pain on the back and thigh. Told me to rest for the time being and not involved in any tedious task.

Rest well Andrew and recover fast...

I will be back again to conquer the 2.4km run
