– This is my best part of the Naval Pentathlon, and I think my result today was okay, he said after his race. He also expressed his thought about which part of the course he finds most difficult.
– The part when you are crawling through the tunnels is hard for me because I am pretty tall, he said and smiled.
The next part of the Naval Pentathlon was the lifesaving race. All the people in the building were cheering at their friends and training partners and that made the environment very inspiring to the participant to perform good results.
