My First Fun Run.

I was so excited for my first fun run. March 25, 2012, was my first fun run this year. The last run I could remember was when I was still in high school. I joined Milo Marathon and i needed to be on the top 100 finishers so that i can get a certificate and have a grade of 90.hahaha Now, I'm back to running but not because of the grades but because i just wanna have fun and stay fit. On your first run, just enjoy every moment of it and don't worry about the time. I suggest your run with friends, colleagues or family so that when you feel tired you can slow down and chat with them. Ohh by the way, don't forget to do dynamic stretching (warm up) before you run because it will help you increase the blood flow to your muscles, which in turn enhances the delivery of oxygen and nutrients. It also prepares you mentally for the run. You need to cool down after running as well because it helps your heart rate and breathing return to resting levels. I finished my 5K run with Globe's Run for Home in 37min, not bad for a first timer.

More to come! : )
