SJCS Fun Run 2012

Another fun run, another medal!

This year's fun run is a joke! This took place inside Malacanang Complex. Last year, the fun run took place in SM Mall of Asia. The time of running is not right. We're running right under the sun! I easily got tired because of the sun's heat. Water stations are set around the area of running. The problem is that the water won't be thirst quenching because the water is not cold.

The medals are a joke. There are two 1k events. There are 250 medals to be given out in each event. For the 3k, there are 100 medals to be given out. For the 5k, there are also 100 medals to be given out. Isn't it supposed to be more medals to be given out when the distance is longer and less medals for the events with less distance?

I don't know if I really ran three kilometers because I couldn't believe the time. My time this year is 13 minutes and 35 seconds. Last year, my time is 17 minutes and 53 seconds. I'm not sure if it really is three kilometers, or I am faster.

What really is wrong is how the sequence of events is. The 1k events started first. We have to wait for the event to finish before the next event will start. It should be, like everyone knows, the long distance race should start first, then in a few minutes, the shorter distance can start already. This way, the race would have finished earlier.
