Woke up in the morning 4 o’clock……………….
I did not want to get up. So sleepy but I have responsibility to do. After I think about it, I woke up. I try not to exhausted and get out!!
I go out from Hard Rock hotel. After packing things, it have 30 minutes left. I went to water warm up. Too many people, so messy, Oh my god, too many jelly fish.
First wave, many professional. I gather myself with those professional. They were men, tall athlete. When referee call name for count and then the game start!!
I rush out. Ran to swim. After that I found many foot from front side. I try to swim away from jelly fish. So that I struck with the bobber. So insipid, God. I cannot get in touch with pro. Alone!!
Ran pass Transition 1 at the hotel lobby, changing the cloth and then be a rider. Ride passing walking street, so shake.
7.8 Richter pass walking street pass slope. Tall foreigner come alongside of me. But I try to win him. I ran along the road no marshal follow up me. I still control good speed. CRV Honda press into me. I have rush breaking. No Police, Oh my god!! But I pass it.
Next transition, ma feet feel numb. Keep running!!
Oh my god!! I have to run on sand, step, and slop, so tried. Every 1.2 kilometer, there will be water. 4 kilometer left no water, so thirsty. Carlo come alongside of me, everybody said Fighting!! I get over him.
Just 3 kilometer left. I told myself fight for 3 kilometer. My leg so weak. I thought how many power I got just push it. Then I got into the goal beautifully. So luckily I learn experience to ran in the goal, I have to straight for camera not to turn backside to catch the camera.
