One of the things I love about freediving is the fact that I get to meet many people of interesting backgrounds... In KL for the competition this time round, I met an arborist, a nurse physician-to-be currently teaching schoolkids in the jungle somewhere in Burma, an ex-body builder/pole dancer/aerial hooper and now freediver, among many others whom I'm sure have cool stories I haven't had a chance to hear yet!

The MDC PoolMaster Apnea Challenge was my first competition after a hiatus of 1.5 years. And it was indeed a unique challenge, with all 3 pool events in one day! Congratulations to all competitors on your stellar performances and thanks to the judges and especially organizers.. Organizing a competition is not easy, let alone one that ran so smoothly! Here are the results:

| Congrats to all Pool Masters! |
I didn't do quite as well as I hoped in terms of distance, but that has lead me to think about the way I've been training and I think I've identified the problem. So there's only one way to go from here... forward!

| I did get a cool uw MP3 player... which is great cos the one I bought recently didn't work pretty much from day 1! "Bone conduction audio" should be interesting... |
I'm looking forward to the next competition!
