Masterbate In Sleep Game
June 29: End of official practices
Sorry for the delay on blogging, not always easy to get computers when only 2 computers are available for 40 teams! And it has access to a keyboard Korean so sorry for the accents!
To resume the last 4 days, it was a mix of unknown turnaround and hard work! With the lack of water in the last week, many plans have BCD tries to be implemented by the organizing committee.
June 26: A meeting of the captains, they announce that they have unearthed a river to drive 6 hours with water and classes 3-4 to make the downriver ... WOW! we would travel by night to go there after evening doing sprints, a scouting, a downriver to come back and do the slalom the next day. Some teams have complained that it is not physically possible, some teams are afraid and ask for tour guides for the run of scooting (some teams are much smaller and have no chance to practice on such beautiful rivers as Quebec), some say they can not do anything here because it has Inje safe to come down here with all its rocks, blah blah blah ... In short, the organizers juggle crazy for us to offer a comparison that makes sense in that the principal is the region of comanditaire Inje or that we are unwilling to see us leave at 6 hours from here!
By evening, we moved to the village ATHLETES! WOW! This is the big luxury! The athletes village is really a holiday camp on the axis outdoor luxury! It has two small houses by our team with flags, food is excellent, there are swimming pool, soccer field, bar, convenience store, etc.! It was also a driver and translator for team ... very convenient!
June 27: So we leave politics aside and there is certainly the time trial (a race against the clock that determines the order of teams for the sprint confrontations) will take place here so we practice section repeatedly. For it to pass, they even removed a section of rocks in order to create a navigable channel to give you an idea. At the lunch menu, rice kichi (super spicy cabbage that is a traditional dish), spicy soup with fish, in short, nothing good for athletes who expend energy! Tomorrow, we return to our good old sandwiches for sure!
June 28! WOW IT IS RAINING !!!!!!! It is the joy in the village! C "is the practice of slalom. The section of river is very technical without retaining gate so imagine you with! Mark, the chief of competition, came up with a really great training course that requires agility and precision! We are in the game! We try various maneuvers, it is all on camera, and with all this rain, it might make a difference!!
By evening, we learned at the meeting Captains of the downriver to 6 hours away is not an option! Sponsors refuse! It was subsequently interviewed by ESPN. Annie is Mendata because everything is in English and 6 other girls are chickens in the raft behind her! The questions are kind of amazing ... What did you think when you saw the level of the river? Who will win? Who are the greatest! WE see! In short, we can not wait to see it!
June 29: As official day of practice and the downriver downriver is not officially fixed, we return to that section of train sprint pousuivre slalom on the river and continue up until the end of this section of river! chances whether the downriver so we have nothing to lose control it well! BUT GOOD NEWS ... THE river rose over a foot .... So high is the water! Not really, but all small rocks chiantes are missing!! The slalom yesterday while a challenge is made then we played without much loss of time because the posts are in the water!! Tonight was the opening ceremony with a parade in the town of Inje and then shows and speeches at the stage of Inje ... Stay Tuned!!
