Shooting thyself in the foot...

Heyhey, howdy folks, it's been a while... How's things on your end? As for me, be busy with 2 more 5-day courses before packing off to Gunung Tahan, Malaysia, for a 9-day trekking and caving trip ;) am recovering from a torn tendon on me left big toe, 3rd week now... alas, me & me freak accidents ;) been relatively low-key physically, these past 3 weeks, trying not to aggravate the injury. But tis getting me grumpy, need to train, train, train... bodies in motion, must stay in motion, can't ever slack, eh? Lesson learnt, don't ever be jumping from boat to boat, least you slip & jam your toe under the motor box...

Over the last half year, I've kayaked 160km+ from Singapore to Indonesia, headed out to sea and slept aboard a sailboat, got my Lifesaving123 swim proficiency, participated in and won a pentathlon (swim, cycle, kayak, run, climb) team race organised by OBS, gotten fitter than ever before, and broken just about every mental & physical limit. It's been a crazy time, but I've still got to apologise for my prolonged absence and uncontactablility as i'm now stationed weekdays on Pulau Ubin ;) catch you around on weekends then, either for a drink and a quick bite or perhaps a quick chat online ;) keep in touch ;) looking forward to hearing from all you doodes and doodettes once again!
