I have been dreaming of joining a
fun run ever since the craze started.
But whenever I think about waking up early and running, I would
eventually decide not to go.
One very persistent colleague told
me to join Manila Bay Clean-up Run.
Since she’s really persistent, I decided to go (and signed up Leo
too. I can’t run alone).
Two months before the actual fun
run, I would jog around Mall of Asia seaside once a week just to stretch some
muscles and ensure I would finish the 5k run I signed up to. (That colleague also told me to go on 5k and
not 3k – mabibitin lang daw ako).
June 13 came; Leo had to go on a
business trip. I signed up my brother GB
and his girlfriend, Zarie, so they would accompany me. They are on a buy 1 take 1 package that day
as it was their 2nd year anniversary (belated happy anniv!).
We were late. We came in at 3k gun start already. But nonetheless I was a proud finisher of 5k
run. Took the run in less than 40mins.
I honestly feel “bitin”. I should have run 10k. During fun runs, there are a lot of runners
and you would not feel ‘kulelat’ if you run slow because not everyone runs
fast.
I am now gearing for a 10k run –
hopefully with Leo. Wish me luck.
