...or more like Walk BGC. I don't know if I'm just being a brat or overly maarte but I really am not proud of this run! The only saving grace? I didn't pay for it, thanks to CA's blogger friend. Or, maybe I would have had more willpower if I actually paid for it? Here are the reasons why I thought I sucked at it:
1) I walked so much! In fairness to myself, I ran until 10kms and right about that time there was a steep uphill so I didn't bother running it anymore. I was so not prepared for this uphills! The minute I saw so much people ahead of me I knew it had to be downhill kaya kitang-kita ko sila!
2) I think I ran too fast at the beginning. Not having a GPS watch, I just normally base my pace on the Nike Running app (pretty helpful). Usually, I end the first km at around 8:00 or 8:30 but yesterday I think it was 7:20? Why am I so much faster? All thanks (or no thanks, haha) to Van who Les and I ran with! She's a much faster runner but did say she was going to run this slow. Anyway, I think that added to me getting tired...?
3) CA says I walked not really because I was tired, but mostly because I wanted to walk. I think I was mentally weak yesterday because I was coughing and was on Day 2 of my period :( I wanted to cry when I got my period Friday but decided to be grateful instead that it won't be around anymore this weekend for QCIM! :p
4) I was so slow so at around 12kms, it was so hot na! I didn't wear my cap, but had it in my bag. Stupid :))
I was supposed to run an additional 6kms with CA and his friends (who are now my friends too, hahaha) after but did not finish :( Thanks to my girly problems (which I do not want to elaborate on here), I only managed an additional 2.
