not so fun "fun run"

When referring to kilometers dash, the activity is called “fun run” although a personal thought objects it to be so. Weeks before, everyone, including myself, was excited to the UNILAB Run Rio Trilogy 2 sponsored by our office – much more when each singlet was distributed. In fact, we elatedly took photos of ourselves in the department with the running outfits on.

At the event, what I referred to as “fun” was not at all FUN. The road where the participants supposed to go running was filled with a thousand feet; looking for a teammate was like finding a needle on a haystack! The gun start was late by 20-30 minutes causing the last round of runners – 3K category, to welcome the rising of the sun. Yes, the chance to spend time together in this extracurricular activity would have been as amusing as we wanted it if the event had been more organized then.

Above any achievement I might get after it, the fun I was actually craving for was everybody’s company, my sister’s presence there, and the unnumbered funny moments with my colleague friends. Back home I realized that it’s still more rewarding to climb the mountains than it is to run at the terrain!

I was actualy wondering what that "jump" means! Hahaha!

Years ago, I also love running, not to mention I am so used to getting bruises & cuts for stumbling and still wanting to run faster than my friends. Growing up, I realized that it feels more wonderful when I thread the long road and welcome a great scenery at the top of the mountains! ;')

Thanks for this Sie.
