For us, running is not only a sports but a family affair too! Last November 14, 2010, Batch 1982 of the Ramon Magsaysay (Cubao) High School held its first family fun run inside the UP Diliman. The event aims to strengthen camaraderie among batch mates through a healthy cause. The affair dubbed “Takbo, Lakad, Chika” exactly described the said gathering. The proceeds of the fun run will be used as initial funds for this year’s Christmas party of the batch. Details on this will be announced soon. The fun run was initiated by the batch’s 2 Bottles Club (2BC) with the support of various section representatives. A good number of batch mates with their families grace the occasion despite the fact that it was Pacquiao versus Margarito boxing match.
The fun day
Swthrt and I arrived at UP at around 5:15 am. We decided to do a couple of rounds of the academic oval before proceeding at the registration area at the side parking lot of the Bahay ng Alumni.
After we have registered and made some chika with batch mates, we continued our run to complete our 10K goal for the day as part of our training. At around 6:30 am, we returned at the venue and prepare for the event. I opened the event with a prayer after which batch mate Robert Cornelio thanked and welcome the participants. I led the stretching before we started the run.
When everyone was finished, we did some raffle of prizes donated by some of our generous batch mates. Food (Carrot cupcakes) and drinks (Powerade and Real Leaf Tea) were also provided courtesy of Liza DiƱo. The day ended with a family picture taking for souvenir. It was obvious that everyone who participated enjoyed the gathering.
So to those who missed the fun day, hope to see you next time!
