10th June.
...

today is the day everyone is waiting for.

6 teams.
24 ODACians (minus one - cassandra)
Gathered at the tentage beside Pasir Ris MRT station
ready for the BIG FIGHT against other JC ODACians for the Champion for Adventure Trail Challeng 2007.

It was tough,
I can say.

Well done people!
Good that you all at least have experienced the intensity, the toughness, the endurance tests in this race, especially the JC1s.
Never mind if we never win any medals.
What are medals to us?
Just a piece of metal (bronze, silver, gold, whatever)
Only to be shown off.

What's really worth is the experiences:

the rough terrains you have run through
the trails you have biked
the smelly drains you have tunneled through
the choppy waves (or calm ones?) you have fought against while kayaking

and...

the encouragements of one another
the shoutings, frustrations to one another
the tiredness of everyone
the endurances when each of us have to stitch all the way
the true colours of everyone displayed
the trust on one another in the team
the 4 hour long "bonding session" within the group

...
and most importantly(s),

the sense of satisfaction
one has gained
after their LAST STEP of this 28km.
yup.

Please appreciate such races.
It's really worth it.

P.S. to winston, raj, cassandra:
It's great having you guys to complete this 28km with me.
I really treasure the time we spent together.
Though at times I tend to piss you all off,
But overall
I think we have done a great job.
Hurray!
I LOVE YOU GUYS!
*muacks*

Just like to share this quote to all those taking part in ATC and everyone else in odac.

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you are right.
If you like to win, but you think you can't,
It is almost certain you won't.

If you think you will lose, you lost.
For out of the world we find,
Success begins with a person's will.
It is all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are.
You have got to think high to rise.
You have got to be sure of yourself
before you can ever win a prize.

Life's battle don't always go to
the stronger or faster man,
but sooner or later the man who wins
is the man who think he can!
- Unknown

Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose.
-Tom Krause

Don't give up even before you have tried.

Rest well.

Dwayne

Just to keep you all updated, the date for Mt K has been change to 17 to 22 Dec.

ATC training (Final one) (Optional)
Kayaking at Mac Ritchie
Time: 9am-11am+
Date: 8 June (Friday)
Things to bring: Extra clothes, bathing stuff, $ (about $10), kayaking certs, water bottle.
Other ODACians (JC1s/ JC2s) are also invited to join even if you are not going for atc. (Just to enjoy yourselves or destress from all your muggings)

Some tips-
For ATC, please use one shoe all the way. No wet shoes required. You won't have time to change shoes or you won't want to carry extra load.
Highly recommended, each person get power gels. But please drink lots of water after consuming it. If not, dehydration.
Travel light. Carry the bare minimum. (Team: 3 litres of water,first aid kit, zip lock bag and nothing esle besides personal medication if any)

Finally, most teams have been training hard for ATC and I wish you all each and everyone of you all the best for this race. Have fun!

PS: Please stop all vigours trainings after Friday. Please try not to eat fried or spicy food. Have a good rest the night before and drink lots and lots of water the night before. Try not to get sick and take good care of your health. Lastly, cycling part for ATC is very dangerous. If you cannot or are not confident about cycling at some parts, get down and push your bike. Safety is always first priority in ODAC.
