In my
opinion, man learned the art of running first before walking.
To those who
don’t agree, try to imagine yourself living in the prehistoric era, waking up
in the morning surrounded by a pack of T-Rex or Giganotosaurus checking which
part of you is good for a power breakfast. Instinct, guys. During those times,
almost every living thing on Earth grew up on the run.
Fast forward
to present time. People nowadays have different reasons why they run. Some run
to go to work. Others run to finish errands. But the most popular form of
running today is fun run and other types of competitive running like marathon,
100m dash, etc.
In the
Philippines, different organizations stage fun runs almost every week. One of
the event happening soon is the Pro Earth Run 2014 scheduled this coming Saturday
(April 12) at the Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.
Earth Day
Network Philippines (EDNP), the local counterpart of the Global Earth Day
International will spearhead this event as part of the Earth Day Celebration on
April 22. EDNP is a network of organizations that campaigns for environment
protection and awareness working together with different government agencies,
private corporations and non-government organizations.
I will be
part of this event as a sign of my commitment to spread the word or theme of the event
“Protect, Respect, Oversee Earth Care.” Another reason for joining this is
because running is one of the cheapest and easiest form of exercise. No
equipment needed. Just a pair of running shoes (well, some even run barefoot)
and willing feet.
Few slots are still open for 1.5K & 3K categories until April 10. Please call (02) 9042304 or 9049826 if interested.
Happy running, guys!
