I dislike it when ChI imposes Penalty on my side but i HATE it when met with unreasonable PE teacher!!!
During 2dae's Afternoon PE, we were asked to run 8 rounds non-stop in 28mins. As Lane 1 and 2 are kept free for those ppl taking Napfa, itis pretty irritating to have to run @ slower pace on the outer lanes. There, this Malay girl who i don't even noe @ all was about to give up while running the 2nd round of the 2.4km course...
Being one who truly believe in Pacing and partners pairing up to run will achieve better timings; espcially for such an important annual physical examination, i decided to pace her to continue running.
Poor me was purely wanting to help her along and push her on for the remaining 4 laps then :p Sometimes, running ALONE on that Heaty (due to the merciless sun) yet Cool (unfriendly!) track can be quite a torture!!!
I have done 2 1/2 rounds then when i pick up speed and join her by the side. Throughout the whole course, she was whinning like, " i make it arh... can give up now and another time??. ?i reallie can?t anymore?...

Being someone who believe stringly in Pacing and partners pairing up to achieve better timings; especially for such an impt annual physical exam, i decided to pick up speed and run with her till the end.

What a waste when you are about half way thru! I persuaded her to jog on and encouraged her to complete the course with me :) We even managed to spring for the last 100m of the last lap. Despite spring-ing as one of the things that i don't like, i accompanied her since she has the mentality of doing so. Commentable effort!
Some people believe that this will help enhance the final timing; but to me, Constant speed and perserving throughout the whole journey is the most impt +) Such painful run requires determination and strong will, so am i not doing a good deed when i help one to become Stronger and carry on the whole process?!?
Panting profusely, i was kindly reminded by my friend to slow down a bit first... Little did i expected the PE teacher-in-charge to appoach me and question why am i doing here near the finishing line when i was not wearing the Napfa no. tag --ie not doing the test.
Still trying to catch my breathe, i was questioned by her in a very unpleasent way as if i have just commited a crime or so (-_-) I explained to her politely that i just finished pacing
