today was napha. finally after failing napha for so many years in TCHS and being constantly tortured by the PE teachers there, I finally got a gold totally on my own! This time round all training was done on my own, and I had really put in alot of hard work from the start of last year. It's really great to know some things are achievable in you put in the effort. I only wish I could say the same for my studies. Lemme go thru all six items:
1) Shuttle run: omg this was slack! the dist was obviously less than 10m cuz I finished it in 10 secs and the slowest guy in my class ran 10.1 secs . Nuff said...
2) Situps: I always admired those ppl who did like 60++ situps in pri sch. yah so I tried to do as many as I can but alas only did 57. Still pretty good though.
3) SBJ: yes I finally jumped a C grade of 232 cm! I failed SBJ throughtout pri n sec sch cuz I had short legs and I am fat. well good thing I trained to increase the leg power and reduce my ballast to some extent.(but I am still fat)
4) Sit and reach: 45cm which is B or C grade. Alot of my friends cheat, yah well but sit and reach is stupid and is excluded in NS so I guess its ok.
5) Pull-ups!!!: yay I finally reached my goal of 15! S0 proud of myself. Used to think lyk "wah, pull-ups is only for those ppl with super thick arms and I would never be able to do one" well I guessed I proved myself wrong. =)
6) 2.4 run: hmm... the weather was a killer. so darn hot. I only ran like 11.40 which is super slow. What makes it more frustrating is that I run pretty often yet I am so slow, in fact slowest amongst the guys in my class who ran. So not fair. Muz be I dun have the running genes. ppl lyk yichao(from wushu) can run under 10 mins and dun feel tired. not fair loh. but the world's never fair so I can't really complain.
yah well overall I am quite pleased with this year's NAPHA results. I only wished I ran abit faster. But well I am glad it is done and over with. But will still train to keep fit and healthy.
