Powerade Duathlon 2: Revenge but not Quite

I went to Hong Kong 2 years ago to satiate my thirst for camera gear. We were looking for Tony Leung’s place called New Sankyo. We had a lot of trouble finding it and we came to a point where we almost quit trying to look for it. We eventually found it but upon our arrival, it was closed.

That is how I felt after I crossed the finish line last Sunday as the 2nd Powerade Duathlon. I trained for it. I sweated blood and tears for it. But I still came short. I was targeting a finish below two hours but I was 3 minutes over the mark.

Aside from the fact that I did not reach my target, it sucks even more because my legs hurt and are still sore. I still can’t walk properly even after 3 days. And to top it all off, I am feeling all this all for nothing. My body hurts, my shoulders are sore, when I wake up I don’t feel rested, I am over trained, I can’t walk properly; all for nothing. I put in so much time into this and I still didn’t reach my goal. I did everything right and I still missed the mark.

I hope I have better luck next time.
