STEPS- run for a cause

We signed up for this run organized by Methodist welfare services to raise funds for e needy. It was held at ECP this morning n was a Gd weather for e run as we love e sea breeze run. We are used to taking walks at park every sat (almost!) but tdy was supposed to run 5km.

Well decided that daddy goes w Joann on e pram while mama takes Ian. Hmm we hv been building up on walking but running takes a long while, we guess. The boy wanted to run at beginning but aft a while decided to brisk walk n later take a slow walk. He's nursing a cough so dont dare push too hard. Ya started asking for water but we left at e pram haha. Then complained too far coz can't quite see crowd already n he rem e car is behind ie we gotta walk back there. Asked to stop for a seat but pushed him on then thot we hv came so far so detour n glad we did that coz e run overshot ie e runners run over e distance needed to cover so when backtrack we saw e whole crowd going back n e boy was more motivated esp aft seeing familiar faces like auntie Yijie, auntie Lorraine n then daddy w mei2 in pram n he got his water! Started to relax n enjoy more of e walk coz can do it together w e crowd. Guess we shldn't be late for flag off ESP w young kids as e crowd means a whole lot n also to do more stamina building for such walks. Well but we had alot of fun there w food, games n fellowship. Just so glad e weather was Gd n we could run for a Gd cause. Hope we finish our 'race' well too in life so that our traces we left really can spur others on
