KKK Funny Run

No, I did not make a mistake in the title.  I'd much rather call it funny than anything else.  I'll explain...

I got to say, in the four fun runs that I've joined so far, yesterday's run stood out somehow. It wasn't an extraordinary run by the way. The reason for it standing out from the rest is that a lot of runners got lost in the routes lol! That's because the race organizers had few marshals deployed in critical locations and there were no signs either.  I was already thinking if I was one of the declared placers, I wouldn't accept the award because there was no certainty that I ran the right distance. But, gauging from my previous runs, I would say I ran more than five kilometers. I did extra turns along the route, and I would have probably ran longer if I had not explained to one of the marshals who was thankfully in her place, that I already ran the route she was pointing out to me.

Gaahhhhh....my throat was already parched because I passed off the only water station I chance upon.  There were too many runners there and if I stop to have a drink, I might not be able to run anymore hehehe.  My legs tend to cramp up when I stop running, so when I am too tired to run, I do very brisk walking to prevent leg cramps.  So, I cannot afford to stop for so long at the water station.  Otherwise, I won't be able to finish the race. 

So anyway, that was annoying in that aspect but I just shrugged it off and we even laughed about it.  What did they expect, I wonder? Tire us all out running around CCP Complex in unending circles? I just took it as Day 1 of practice for the Milo Marathon finals next month, on December 9 to be exact.  Hey, if you'd like to join that, registrations are still open.  I could guarantee you that the Milo Run is very well organized, being handled by Runrio.  So, no funny things like this one.

And what's a race without the souvenir shots?  I'd just like to share some pictures after the race.  There were no pictures before the race started because at five in the morning, it is still too dark to take decent photos.  The pictures by the plant box are my favorite.  I looked like I just took a walk in the park instead of having just ran more than five kilometers.  What do you think?

Pictures at the Finish Line and the Plant Box Models  :-)

More plant box shots and a group picture

I hope to see some of you in future runs!
