ran 5-kilometers yesterday  email this discussion to a friend?

I ran for a cause. It was a local radio station's fun-run to save the environment. Locally, the run was called "Takbo Para Sa Kalikasan". In English: "Run For The Environment".

It was participated by many groups, family, individuals, schools, and NGO's.

All in all, it was fun. I spent walking most of that 5-kilometer run. The important thing is I participated in a worthwhile event.

Have you run for a cause lately? Tell me about it.

That's really nice!

Yes! I have been doing this since 2003. Though I don't go every year. I missed out a couple of years back.


myLot reputation of 90/100. Pigglies (5141)   ranked 1 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

That is a really good. I've only been running for about 8 months now. I hope I can continue a few events as a yearly tradition too.


myLot reputation of 73/100. ethanonthemoon (682)   ranked 11 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

I like participating on events for a cause like this. There's no awards to think about, no goals of winning whatsoever. Just the thought of doing all these for something worthwhile is enough for me.

Plus it gets me fit. I can exercise for just an hour or so and I get to make friends with other participants.

You did? That's nice! I was there also, but I did not participate in the events but just jog all by myself at the baywalk. Just went there to see some stars. Had you informed me a little earlier, we could have met there personally.


myLot reputation of 73/100. ethanonthemoon (682)   ranked 11 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

Do you have a uniform?

I doubt we can meet if I told you earlier that I'd be there. There are lots of people there. Have you seen Piolo or Maricar?

I have some pictures of them taken by my officemate.

wow, fantastic. i dont know if i can run 5 kilometers. and your aim to participate reflect you are good people and aware for our environment


myLot reputation of 73/100. ethanonthemoon (682)   ranked 11 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

Five kilometers is just a short jog. You can do it for an hour if you walk it through. I do a combination of jog and walk. Most of the time I walk. Hehehe.


myLot reputation of 91/100. adhyz82 (7706)   ranked 46 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

really? maybe i will try your trick my friend


myLot reputation of 99/100. Ysabel (589)  2 years ago

If you run with your friends along with you, it could be fun and you will not notice it that you have ran already that far. So I guess, the trick is, if you are not really a runner but you want to do it for a cause, bring along some friends so you can have fun at the same time!


myLot reputation of 91/100. adhyz82 (7706)   ranked 46 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

ya, bring some friends.nice tips for me.maybe it works for me.


myLot reputation of 73/100. ethanonthemoon (682)   ranked 11 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

The thing is if you have friends with you but they want to finish ahead of everyone else you can still be left behind.

I have friends with me but I can't keep up with them. I just walk most of the way to the finish line. While my friends kept on running.

Though they waited for everybody else at the finish line before we went home.


myLot reputation of 99/100. Ysabel (589)  2 years ago

That's true. Especially if you have friends that are really runners, or they do jog for exerecise, or they simply are fast runners. I was only giving adhyz82 a tip since he said he doesn't know if he can run 5 kilometers. Thats the very basic tip, get someone to run with you. So you will be encouraged to do so.

I personally haven't had the opportunity to run/walk for a cause very often in the past year or so. However, that doesn't mean that I don't want to do it. I would like to be able to get my husband in better health so that I can take the time to train to do something that could make a difference.

My brother did Team in Training for the Lymphoma and Leukemia Society last year, he did a full triatholon and I was quite inspired by him. That is something that I want to do. I was going to do it this year, but with Tom's health I knew it wasn't the best option, so I'm hoping that I will be able to train to do it next year.


myLot reputation of 90/100. Pigglies (5141)   ranked 1 out of 75 in running  2 years ago

Wow, that is incredible that he did a full triathlon. I would love to do one someday. But currently, even a sprint triathlon scares me because I'm so bad at swimming.


myLot reputation of 100/100. dorannmwin (17646)  2 years ago

It's funny that it is the swimming part of it that worries me the least. I've been a swimmer all my life and last summer I started using a road bike again for the first time in several years. But, I've never been brave enough to get off my tail and start training to run. I will do it though.
