Had 2.4km test today. Bad. And I still don't know why. Before the thing started, I was busy looking for someone to pace, since nck was away doing 5 items. Unfortunate. Anyway, whoever I paced, I should still pass, since I don't remember failing 2.4 before.
And then the run began. Originally, I was fine, feeling ok, no uncomfortable feeling anywhere or anything like that. Ran the first round with whj, since chen was pia-ing ahead and trying to chase him would be very pointless. So I ran the first, then the second with whj. Speed was okay, just the usual average running speed, except I might have used more energy than I intended running the first round. But it shouldn't matter anyway.
Then funny things happened. My leg, left leg, began to hurt, but it's rather common for this to happen during running, as I seem to get it everytime I run. So it didn't really bother me much, since I was used to it anyway. Anyway, whj stopped occasionally, so I stopped with him, to regain some energy too. Then the cramping stomach pains began. Which shouldn't happen, since I cut down on what I ate this morning to ensure that I wouldn't get anything like this during the run. And abstained from water too. It wasn't the usual pains one might get while running... and I still have it now. Only a bit though, but you still can feel the uneasiness and slight pangs sometimes. Bleargh.
So now I was the one stopping. Because one cannot run when suffering from a stomach ache and an uber headache. Ah yes, the uber headache. I'm used to having periodical headaches which hurt like shit, you know, those which make you unable to think and you feel as if there's lightning bouncing around inside of your skull. And the unsteady vision, can't really describe it, and when you close your eyes you can see 1337 flashes and stars or something like that. Headaches for me aren't exactly rare, but headaches of such magnitude don't occur very often. Or I'd be dead by now.
Anyway, I usually have such headaches when under stress, or when I'm trying to concentrate. Something like that. In any case, I don't usually get headaches while doing physical exercise, so having one during the run was exceedingly annoying. And running while having a headache seems to make it worse. Bleh.
So I just ran on, but quite slowly, and stopping whenever I needed to allow the pain to subside. And crossed the finishing line at 1249, collapsed and lay like a dead fish. Annoying. Deproved by a minute or so. Anyway, I was still hurting, physically when I got back to class, changed and went to 4N to go with tan and eddy to the canteen.
I declare that coffee is a excellent medicine. I bought some coffee and it did a miraculous job of clearing up the head, but not the stomach though. But the stomach's endurable, so it doesn't matter. So I could think clearly enough to talk to tan and notice maumu being niaoed by people staring at him and people sending smses to him. Since he was sitting next to sarah foo and gwee. Yes, coffee pwnz. Mwah.
