I'll Run
I never really am the one who exercise regularly. Well, if it isn't obvious by my physique then.... But I realised as we grow older, that we should prioritize our health. Most of the illnesses usually reveal themselves after 40, some would say. But that is so 2000 and late. These days where the effects of global warming and pollution and vices are everywhere, some get diagnosed with diabetes on their early 20's. Some die because of hypertension and overfatigue (if there is such a word) at a very young age. It helps to be vigilant. It is better to prevent and not just deal with finding solutions when the problem arrives.
So I guess it won't hurt to give walking and jogging and running a try. Sometimes I go out with my aunt in the afternoon and by going out in the province it means brisk walking through the vast fields, "pinitak", "pilapil", near the pond (my aunt as pictured and that is how we roll). Plus I cannot help but admire the beauty and purity of our place. We all need this kind of calmness that the nature effortlessly provides in a while.
I also am not the one to splurge on things unless (1) the
previous one cannot be utilized anymore; (2) I needed it. But there's this
running shoes which is nice and comfy (by my standards) and guess that would be
the "start". Let's be honest, we feel good when we're wearing what we
think is good and appropriate. It doesn't always have to be costly but as long
as you feel confident and it won't be a hindrance to you as you jog or run or
go somewhere then you're good to go.
I also have tried to sign up to some fun run and
surprisingly it was fun. This Sunday I will be joining the Color Manila Run 2
and I am totally stoked about it. This is going to be my first time to go on a
10K run and man, my friends think it is suicide haha but at least I'd die happy
and with colors (because that is the highlight of the marathon. Er, Color
Manila. What a dead giveaway.)
To a healthier 2014! Let's do this!
