Running is good for health. Todays, my city organized a half marathon for the residents. It was an open event and anyone could take part in that. I was pretty late in taking part in the running program. I reached to the city last night. But made sure to witness the sporting event. Unlike full marathons, half marathons are long enough to test endurance, but short enough to avoid extreme. On my morning walk I stopped to see the running man. There were hell lot of participants and seeing them.in running mode is quite a ecstatic feeling. People from all walk of life took part in the event. What I like the most is that the people were not running to win, but enjoying the run. There people of age groups and gender, Be it ladies, aged man or the youngsters, everyone took part in the event to enjoy the event. I thoroughly enjoyed snapping the runners, who were seems exhausted after their initial round.
It was all a random click standing from a same position. There were many runners who participated and doing fairly well. It was a 3km stretch that the participants have to run. But there were various category to it. There were 3 category of running 5 KM/ 13KM / 21KM. It is up to the participants to take part in the running. Some appears to be a professional athlete, while some looks to be young enough take part in the running. Most of them they look very tired. However they were full of enthusiasm. Here are all the pictures I have taken from my mobile.
I have never such an enthusiastic for running before. The participants were enjoying the atmosphere and aiming at a fair game. It was quite supportive events that ended on a happy note.
In good faith - Peace!!
