Finishing TCR 2014

Sorry for not posting anything for a while, I was quite busy with practicum stuff and programs.

This post created for the Terengganu Century Ride 160km 2014 that I participated in last month.

My comment on the TCR 2014 was quite enjoyable when I think about it. The route was quite difficult even though the scenery was beautiful  I spent two month training while my practicum in SK Bukit Payong, Terengganu.

Before the event I will go out at night to get some training because I was quite busy in daytime or just sleeping. Haha.

In the end, I finished my training by setting up an objective to reach 1000km in two month and turn quite well for me luckily.

Tips for Century by me.

1.       Finish your training early and get some rest before the big event.
-          I finished my training one day before the big event and I got some saddle incident that left me quite uncomfortable during the event. Let your body heals before the event.
2.       Set up an objective or goal before you started to train for the event.
-          My goal was to reach 1000km before the event and it really helped when I was out riding or just to motivate me when I was feeling lazy to train in some days.
3.       Nutrition is important during training.
-          You should take well balance diet to get more result while training.
4.       Do some mental training when you are not riding.
-          This is to prepare you when you are riding with more experienced riders and probably will get demotivated on the rode during the event. Keep with your pace and remember you objective to finish the route and not drop out in the middle of the ride.
5.       Check and regulate your bike before the event.
-          Give your bike some loving and cherish the parts thoroughly so there are no mechanical problem during the race.
6.       Join the event with a group or partner.

-          This will help to motivate you when you are feeling down and demotivate to go for a ride and it will really help to have someone in the event.
