Finally



I have been waiting for six months for them to show the IMWA Dec 2009 Race. I've watched the 2007 and 2008 IMWA Races hundreds of times, each time I go on the Trainer in the mornings.

Finally the 2009 Race will be shown on Channel 811, Astro Supersport:
  1. 12 June. Sat. 10.30 P.M.
  2. 13 Jun 6:10 am.. Sunday
    "The event takes place in the scenic coastal town of Busselton on the Western Australian coast. "
  3. 17 Jun 4:00 pm . Thursday
    "The event takes place in the scenic coastal town of Busselton on the Western Australian coast."

IM Australia 2010 (Port Macquarie) is also being shown on Monday, 14 June 2010 at 7.00 p.m.

(I got "AstroMax", which is able to record programmes. They don't sell it anymore.)

P.S.

O.K. seen IMWA. Now I have another recording to keep me company in the still of the morning. They showed my back for half a second. Other Malaysians featured included K.K. Lee and Chef Rob. It was such a hot day.

I was surprised to see Jason Shortis in tears. He always finishes his race. Cheered me at Langkawi as I finished last. Always obliges my photo requests. My hero.

Lisbeth Kristensen went in the ambulance. We have been using her yummy recipe from the TBB site.

OK, saw IMA. The program was very well done. Many beautiful and artistic shots. My hero, Jason Shortis dnf his 50th IM. The first two males were the same as for IMWA. A lot of tears were shed by the winners and age groupers. They gave a lot of time to age-groupers going over the finish line. Still for me the most exhilarating moment of my life, finishing an IM. The Aussie crowd are just superb, everyone is there to help your day.

I'm looking forward to Busselton baby.

Oh if it's the same one on IMWA that they showed here few months ago, I saw a glimpse of you and your hat on the run leg.
