Learn to love it but never learn to hate it. Despite all he done for us, it been the first time that i'hv listen him motivated us. Those words are still as clear as crystal in my head. I'll never forget what he said to us, all those inspiring and motivating words are just too touching. Knowing his 2nd side from manager can see clearly that he actually cares for us despites those "shows" that he put on before us that he doesn't care. But deep inside he is actually very caring for us. Flashback of moments before ivp, all those efforts he choose to push me despite knowing i wasnt a good runner. "Jerome, see if i put ur best 2 800m timing together, it is below 5 mins, definitely u can do it below 5 mins for 1500m." Being a strong headed person, i choose not to believe him as my p.b for 1500 is 5.30 during the recent time trail therefore telling myself a below 5 mins is impossible for me. HOwever things changed during ivp day, he putting on a brave show again in front of the team, not wishing anyone luck b4 their race unlike other coaches, just quietly watching all the races go past, but actually deep inside him he is confused with the relays. Race ended, hitted a 4.54 in the race and was grateful for all those friends who supported me, and of cause the trainings. Thought once more, the faith that he given me saying that i would be able to do below 5 came again. By now, i choose to believe in myself and not looking down in myself.
"You all haven even cross the line yet your already say you can't do it." this sentence yet again hit me hard one more time, if i am always looking down on myself i can never achieve anything in t&f. Remembering the times during the first few trainings, i even had difficulties striding and even could not hit a 9 ++ mins for 2.4 but all these trainings that i have pulled thru shaped me to what i'hv become today. Thinking back at those moments, i could easily laugh at myself being such at persimistic person. "If you see a bottle half filled with water, would you see it being half filled or half empty?" Ask urself this question. Remembering how all the year one started off this year, we had so many people during the first few training but to now, only those with the strong mind set to push themselves that far will be those remainding in track.Therefore i'm proud of all of you! Despite being such a small team, we dont have many disadvantages but in turn to have more advantages. why? we click tgt easily pushing each other and being there for one and another. I could stand there saying that "i proud of being a tracker" Really proud of the whole team, the best manager that you can find for being for the team despite the "chaos" we brought to t&f. The man who has been supporting us all the way, Mr guru though he's not here all the time but he have been still supporting us with different ways of presenting it. Last but not least our coach for teaching us thruout all these years and with just that one motivation speech should have already moved all of us. Therefore, we shouldnt say" coach so fast ar? sure cannot do it de" or " huh? so much? coach i cannot la" Remembering all these lines is what we always used to say but now after going thru one season of ivp i think we should stop all these and say" I CAN" it is the effort that we put in not the results we produce in the end. Being tired and having cramps is part of training. Why bother thinking about the pain, we should think we have already have thru it so many times just one more time wouldnt be diificult. Trackers are your ready to push it all our in our 08/09 ivp!!! If you still have the negative mindset, then coach training all these while would be totally useless for all of us. With a postive mindset, not only we can break the limits within us and even pushing us to a greater height!
