Power Prayer

One cloudy Saturday. Bintan Triathlon 2015. Fifteen minutes to starting time. Waiting nervously. A couple right in front of me. The guy, small build but all muscle, changed into his tri-suit then did some light stretching. I was admiring his tiny waist line when the girl he was with then sat on a wooden bench and started praying. Not just a quick prayer but a long one. She wasn't in the race. At the end of the day I found out that the guy I saw that afternoon was Andy Wibowo, the winner of the olympic distance! Behind a successful man there is a wise and a strong woman. Vice versa.
