I had a great time at the 5th Robinsons Fit & Fun Wellness Buddy Run. This race is unique because you are required finishing the race together with your buddy. YES! You need to have a running buddy in order for you to register and you have to finish together.
My running buddy? He is a good friend and my shoulder to cry on. *naks! meganon?* Ron and I decided to be running buddies. I'm a bit hesitant before the race because I'm not prepared for it. I've been idle for quite some time because I just had an eye surgery. So from being a couch potato, here I am running my come back run - 10k.
While running the race, I noticed runner couples holding hands.*inggitera lang!* I'm lucky to have a great running buddy. He's encouraging me to keep running and sometimes had to walk on my account.

My buddy has been very sensitive to my needs. He constantly checks if I'm still okay. I admit, this 10k run is one of my worst runs. It's a "buwis-buhay" race for me. But my buddy made it much easier. He keeps on checking if I'm still comfortable with our pace, if we're too fast, too slow or just right, or if I needed to walk.
My buddy and I agreed before the race that the goal was just to have fun and finish the race with a decent time. We finished with an unofficial time of 1:11. not bad right?
After the race, Ron and I made a quick stop at Starbucks.
The First thing I did when I got home; checked out the loot.

| WOW! Groceries... I think this would last a month?!?! Hahaha |
Have I mentioned I run the last 2-3km barefoot? Yes! At first I was wearing my Vibram Five Fingers, unfortunately, I had blisters and made me decide to run barefoot.
