on the run..

i am running again... yeah, the HORROR!!! but i have to run the New Balance Power Race and finish the 10km run..

funny how i arrived in this situation. The channel manager from my principal was always gung-ho about running.. we always found some common ground to talk about with all of my outdoor activities: the biking, the climbing and the diving.. but running.. now that's another matter altogether..

but since i knew he likes running, i forwarded to him the emails from AMCI regarding the race.. not five minutes after i forwarded, he emphatically said "let's go! invite the other business partners!".... uh-oh..

but i tied it up nicely with another marketing activity (which of course will be another story) and without question my budget was approved..

so now here i am... trying to run again..

my running shoes have been relegated to the lowest part of my shoe rack gathering dust, but both of us were panting last night!

now jaime is giving me a "running program" - fit for me... 10km for 1hr 20mins with lots of rest days and beer in between!!! hahahaha funny... but i will surely follow it religiously.. the rest days and the beer days that is.. :D
