On the 8th of February, my family, my friends and I had participated in a charity run at Botanic Park, which the environment there was fresh and clean and many of us took this golden opportunity to have a walk there. The journey was about 9 km and took us about one and the half hours to complete the run.
As early as 6.15, we had to be there for registration. Most of us had been arrived earlier to prepare ourselves, therefore there were also people who came late. Besides, many adult also took part in this event. At 6.30 sharp, the organizer invited a coach to lead us for a light warm up. After that, they announced that the male category will be running soon as well as the female category. After 5 minutes of the male category started, the female category starts. At first, we all gathered together for the run. But after half an hour, we decided to run separately because some of us were slow and some were fast.
Furthermore, we have to run up and down of the forest. Therefore, it was really tired but fun. About 45 minutes, there was a station for us to stop by and have a sip of water. Along the journey, there were some people were motivating us and gave us support. There were sound of cheering and sound of people talking. After 30 minutes, I felt my body lack of oxygen and water. When I wanted to give up, I saw a group of people running towards me and I told myself that I should keep it up when others did not gave up halfway. After that, I saw another station that were waiting for us and I was so HAPPY that I could drink some water.
After a sip of water, I felt more energetic and have more strength to run. Suddenly, I saw someone fell down while he was about to turn. The BSMM was there to help the poor guy. They help him to wash his wound on the leg to prevent infection. However, I continued my run. After I saw the finish line, I ran as fast as I could to finish the race. When I reach the finish line my friend was there and everyone was so tired and they still panting along. After about 30 minutes, all the participants were running back one by one. Unfortunately, I also saw a man, who knocked his head on a rock when he fell, was bleeding. The organizer decided to pick him up from the hill. His head was wrapped by bandage to avoid the blood to overflow.
Moving on with prize giving and lucky draws. There were many prizes waiting for us to draw. There were some people who had went back home and some of them that stay back after the run to get the prizes: ) We waited for one and the half hour for this but unfortunately we did not get anything. This event was a tired but happy and fun. I had learned many things and some moral values from this event. Firstly, I learned to be stronger and don't give up when you were already halfway done. It is important in our daily life. Without it our life would not be amazing and fun. We would just stopped halfway in our life.
