Bedok Reservoir TimeTrial 17-9-2008

Here's a quote from Wikipedia regarding the definition of a TimeTrial:
"In many racing sports an athlete (or occasionally a team of athletes) will compete in a time trial against the clock to secure the fastest time."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_trial

In case you haven't already noticed, the run at Bedok Reservoir today was a TimeTrial! =)

...

What a cliche way to start off a blog post. Bleahx.

Anyway, here are some peektures! Prepare for a relatively not-so-interesting blog post as I was stuck at the back of the bus for the whole trip to Bedok and couldn't get many pictures. Anyway, in addition to that, I believe that all of us were sooooooo busy warming up for the timetrial, that none of us would have the time to take photos... right? (Prods you to make you agree)


1. Hmm, what's MChia doing? o.O
[ Note that adopting this position will instantly render one vulnerable to a poke to the side! Now why didn't anyone think of that...? (K nvm, that was mean. =X) ]


2. Ooh. A very lively bus. Or at least, "lively" only when compared to Pictures 4 and 6...


3. Sunglasses as a fashion accessory, as shown by Sam Soh "Cool"
[ One of the OLDEST XCountry puns ever =.= ]


4. A picture speaks a thousand words =)


5. o.O That position is plain weird o.O o.O o.O o.O (No offence)


6. The bus has turned so... surreal...! I can't believe almost everyone at the back of the bus was sleeping.

If anyone else has other pictures to upload, they are welcome to do so =P

By the way, special pictures of the new C-Div and B-Div Captains will be retained for a super-special blog post this weekend! Stay tuned!

On a completely different note, I believe that our current "blogskin" is under some controversy. Looks like we can expect the XCountry blog to change abit in the following months...

RANDOM FACT BEFORE ENDING THIS POST OFF: The XCountry e-group was founded in 2004, which was quite some time before our current batch of Sec 4s had joined RI!! Actually, I only realised this a few moments ago (before publishing this post, of course!), when randomly surfing through the e-group.
