First for Fifth. It is 5th National
Geographic Channel’s Earth Day Run in the Philippines, promoting its advocacy
for nature together with the World Wide Fund organization. Exactly 12,000
runners joined the event and glad that I am part of the promotion at the Bonifacio
Global City in Taguig. It is
my first time (obviously) joining NatGeo’s Run and I would say this is the
biggest and the grandest so far.
This year theme is “Bancas for the Philippines”
a funding project of WWF helping fisher folks in Palawan who lost their fishing
boats during the onslaught of typhoon Yolanda. And I am so thrilled that more and
more runners showing support for the advocacy. No wonder NatGeo’s opened 42k, the newest category because of its growing demand.
I finished my run in 10k category for an hour
and fifteen minutes. The score is bad compared to my 10k training records which
I finished for not more than one hour. Maybe because not in the mood as I don’t
have training for nearly three weeks’ time.
First four kilometers, I’m like resistant to
finish the run in an exceptional time record. However I felt cold and sense of
faintness. I know something is not good so I didn’t pushed myself and decided
to just walk. Now I know the importance of proper training and preparation before
the run and also to reduce risk of injury. So I'm thinking of enrolling running clinic.
Indeed 10 kilometer run is a swift physical test
but a perfect training for half marathon. Hopefully it will continue so I lose
weight and get fit in preparation for next year NatGeo Run. And I’ll make sure
that it will be 21k to achieve the ever hard to earn finisher shirt. See you
next year running fellas.
