Am I a Potential Assassin as shown in the movie ‘Wanted’? It works like this…

During a crucial moment, more adrenaline is pumped to your body. The world seem to slow down. You feel like you might almost get a panic attack. Turns out, your speed and agility increase due to the slow speed of reality. You can dodge bullets, do extraordinary-super-human feats and even curve bullets…

That’s what I experience when I took NAPFA yesterday. Every time I take Shutter Run, I feel the Adrenaline Rush. It was an uncomfortable feeling as I felt that my whole body seem to slow down and my heart is pumping so fast, I could get a heart attack. My last timing is 9.6s for Shutter Run, which I think should be the best I can get (not bad for someone who don’t exercise very often). 

I heard the person say go, and it took about .2 seconds for my body to react. I sprint, but I realize I am not sprinting as fast as I used to. My sprint seem to feel like jogging speed to me. I want to go faster but my body just don’t listen to me. When it come to the first turn, I took like another .2 seconds before my body realize it is time to turn… This happen when I took the first cone, then the second cone. When I pass the line, and the time is stop, everything suddenly resume to its normal speed again. I knew I didn’t run as fast as I usually could when I was training at home. But as the person announced the time, I was dumbfounded. 9.4s!!?? To me, it seem like a 10.5s speed (my estimation is usually very accurate)

That’s like! The whole world slow down in my mind. That’s like, Wanted! That’s like soooo freaking COOL! Ha-ha. For the rest of the 4 stations, I cleared with ease. My pull-up got a 8 this time and I feel that I can go more. Unfortunately, I screwed up for my 2.4km… yes… again. I had to much warm-up. I slow jog for 3-4 minutes and end up not being able to catch up with the timing. At least I improve, when my timing for Silver past, I just have 200m left to the finishing line. Just 200m!! 

Beside being able slow down time, I can also speed up time. Ha-ha. That happen when I was chatting with my friend who was an actress (joking!), everything became so fast. I never realized until she asked why I slowed down. I slowed down!!?? What’re you talking about!!?? I was moving at normal speed (to me) and everything else is moving so quickly. I couldn’t explain it. Is this those kinda ‘theory’ that time passes fast when you are having a good time?? But this ‘theory’ is mostly figurative or happen only in the mind but in my case… its too literally!!!

Another case left unsolved. Leave that for another episode of… 5AmUeL wonderful blog post. Errmm… That’s a bit drama. Errmm… ciao! ‘toolbar=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=0,width=630,height=600, top=0, left=0′)”>Mail this post
