Day 1!

I have to be institionalised again! It's not easy. There are rules and regulations and they're not my strong point!

I know its called the Singapore Sports School but it is the first organisation I've experienced which seems to genuinely treat sporting/physical development as equal to academic development. There's a respect for purposeful, focussed training and no (apparent) insistence on immediate performance. We'll see.


And here, just to show what arduous conditions we have to put up with, is a shot of the pools. We had 30 lanes available this morning; 10 x 50m and 20 x 25m. Hard times.
