I am not an athletic person at all. I do not go out of my way to run or exercise and would consider time well spent resting on my bed with a good book. :) But today I ran 5k in one hour. haha I would consider that an accomplishment. We, my sister and I, left Penaranda Park at 6.30am and finished at the top of Lignon Hill at 7.30am. That is a 5k distance from point A to point B and part of the Mayon Trail Run organized by the JCI Legaspi here.
Honestly when M. first mentioned it to me I was hesitant but changed my mind later on. Good thing I did. I ran my first ever marathon after a very long time. The last time would be five years ago when I still lived in BF homes. After leaving the park it started raining. I really wanted to end it there and then but decided to just weather it. The rain was a mild shower but left us drenched nonetheless. That was a fun experience, perhaps an experience I might regret when i started getting the sniffles but it was amazing.
It was an ardorous task for someone as out of shape as I am but wow the view climbing the hill was great. Although I saw it all before with M. [just a few days earlier I might add] it still was something sharing it with my sister. I ran my first marathon guys. :) We almost got lost too. Along the way. But was fun. Let us see if i can run a longer distance too. :)
