E.U day two.........

Friday was an even more busy day than Thursday. There were more cases of muscle cramp due to too much production of lactic acid in the muscle. Fainting out in the field was cause by the athletes pushing their body to the limit, making their heart pump faster, over working their muscles and finally causing the body to go to Anaerobic Respiration state. Now like talking Biology. LOL. Early in the morning there nothing much to do just double checking the F.A.K (first aid kit) before heading out to the field and getting ready the stretcher. Later then only head out the field. We separated into two teams and begin our duty. First were only minor injuries like minor muscle cramps and the athletes falling down after finishing the race just to catch their breath.

There was this boy who is furious cause the teacher give him wrong info and he run and extra round. So what he did was he just took out the counter pain cream and used finish it by applying on his legs and passing on to his friends. We try to consult him but in return he scolded him. I was like what the $%#&. That arrogant little bastard. After the case all hell break loose. More and more girls start to fain tin the field and their muscle cramps were very serious and they have to be stretchered out off the field. There were even not enough stretcher to carry so many patients so some off us have to carry them. The condition in the recovery room was like a race track. All the first aider trying to stabilise the patients condition. In the end we manage to stabilise everyone and they walk out off the room happily.

I heard that on Tuesday there will be 1500m. So to all first aiders be prepared cause it will be another even more hectic day that the pervious.
