my turn!
ok, Track and Field... It doesn't mean you're a tracker once you join track. It takes lots of discipline, determination and passion to being a tracker. Many people might think track and field is just all about running and running non-stop, and the main objective is just to get first. However, that's not what it is about.
For me, i used to be from a school without track and field and had to train ourselves. But, when i just entered track in TP, that's when i start to know what REAL trainings are, and frankly speaking, there were many times that i felt like giving up especially when not being able to hit the timings. Yet, one of the main reasons that i stayed on is because of the people in track (you guys know who you are). The times when you really feel like dying when doing workouts, the team would never fail to cheer you on and motivate you. That's what really keeps me going.
Even though now i'm studying in Sentosa and have to constantly travel all the way back to school for trainings, i'm still very delighted to come back. Not because my house is just opposite school... but it's the sense of belonging i feel when i'm in track. Although sometimes(ok, or most of the time) i do admit i irritate people by always complaining about being tired or 'shag', but comeon..you know...i still love u guys. HAH!
It's already the 2nd year in track and i have learnt alot from my seniors and of cuz COACH CHEW PENG. Though Coach might be sometimes be abit too "GENEROUS" when giving workouts, that's when we have to be discipline and really give all out for trainings. Nevertheless, the real superman in track is coach. She have to go always go around to correct us on how we run, jump, throw and she never complains. Also, the very 'shiok' massage that she always give after training, it's no wonder she's starting to have bigger arms than Naz. The captains, like ruth(being always so 'ON' when asked to help out with track), jayne (always ready with the moisturizer..right gerald?haha) and gerald (always there to when you need help) have really help build up the team and put in alot of effort for track.
Lastly, to everyone in track. It's the start of the season and let's all start working really hard together and i'm sure TP track will surely be one of the greatest. Even if not by winnings, the team spirit we have is enough. And thank so much guys! TP track will always be a family.
P.S: To all the juniors who just got into track, I seriously respect you guys for being able to 'tahan' this long and i hope that you guys continue to persevere and train really hard to improve. It's not all about winning, it's about the statisfaction you get when you know you have done your best. Never ever give up because you know the team will always be there to support and push you on. If you guys think you're determined to do well for track, just do it. At the end of the day its all about the passion.
