Alas! we have crossed the finish line. It started out as a dare in 2004 during a makan session at Defu lane. The dare was to participate in a Sprint triathlon race...relay style. After 3 years of ah hoc trainings, clowning around in tanjong beach waters, biking along many places in singapore. We have made it.... On sunday 2nd July, Todd, Ben and Fata cross their very first finish line of an olympic distance triathlon. Todd Joo did it in a very decent time of 3:03hrs despite his self preservation theory.

Ben, father of one Jerry, the person with the least training hours put in, the rider of an antique Simoncini steel bike cross the line in 3:43 hrs

FATA, came in last at 3:46hrs to the cheers of all our supporters. In a way, it's been a journey of hope, faith and hardwork. The Average joes had to juggle between family, work, personal committments to make time to train. Our friends, wife and family has also been very supportive and understanding of us. So thank you to all who believed in us. You guys have made this race all the more meaningful and rewarding for all 3 of us.

And there were the people who almost made it.

Terence DNF (Did Not Finish) due to a bike breakdown. Bryan had to backout of the race last minute due to a nagging fever.

I believe this is the beginning of another potentially rewarding adventure for Clubnarc. As it is... chee Han, Ah boy, Bryan Lim, Shue Sum have already signed up for the next RACE (NUSS tri race in july)....

Till the Next Race (which is NUS TRI)....

Cheers

FATA
