The 4th leg of the 2006 Archery World Cup was held in Shanghai from the 26th to the 30th of September. As luck would have it, the venue was at the training camp where I live (the shooting and archery center in Shanghai). I watched and cheered for the Philippine team. The women’s team would eventually win the bronze in the compound competition team event, our first ever medal in archery in a worldwide scale. Gold went to Russia and silver to the USA.
the guy with the cap is kinda cute...

ReplyDeleteThat's Mark, I think. He finished in the top 8 in his individual event (there were 32 archers) and I think this was his first international competition.
ReplyDeleteAba, syempre naman machong macho si Macho. I don't know what his real name is. Macho lang tawag e. Hehehe!
Quite a holiday there! Here's Beijing Int'l Music Festival! But i am staying in and doing the literature review of the thesis! What a pain! Well, i should say i've wasted quite some time idling, so... no more complaints...:(
ReplyDeleteHa! At least you're getting some work done. I'm going out every single day and my legs are killing me. We're going to watch a movie tomorrow. I hope I understand it...
