RUN WITH THE WIND

my friend who came with me but could not take part.














 
This is my first and my last 5km run. I did not really sign up for this. I got conned into it. My boss informed me there was still a few place left and requested me to support. I was under the impression it was a walkaton, so I told him ok and gave my particulars. It was only days later I learnt it was a run.Well I am not one who go back on my word, so I turned up this morning. There was already a big crowd when I got there. I was surprise I ran non stop till the finish line. Since I was already there I might as well put it my best and enjoy the run and that was what I did, and I just wanted to complete the race.
I had not practice as I thought it was a walk and I join for fun. Only practice I had was body combat on friday night , a hike on satuday morning and then body body combat on saturday afternoon, and my feet was already aching. I was almost tempted to go for body combat on sunday, but gave it a pass , I I figure my legs need some rest and I was glad I did.. I guess all those body combat and hiking really pay off. If I sound a bit boastful, let me qualify myself. I did not do it on my own strength. It was God who enable me. All glory to Him. Even though I finish the run without much problem, but I don't really enjoy running as much as I do Hiking, so I guess once is enough for me.
I survived the run,but unfortunately my brooke running shoes did not. All the pounding must be too much for it. Time to get a new pair, but again not. I aint running no more
My comment on the run: I wished it was more organised. My friend who came with me could not take part, as they did not update their records, plus the tee shirts was given out to those last minutes comers. She was not the only ones who could not take part due to this hic cup.

This medal is for my Granddaughter, Darissa
