Sunday 6th of April was a very special day for me: it was my first competitive run. I took part in the 10K segment of the Santiago Marathon. I enjoy running very much, and for a while I'd wanted to take part in an organised run, so I guess I can say it was a small dream come true. Another reason why it was special was the fact that my Dad joined me! Paul and my sister Barbara came to support us, which was fun. It was nice to run in Santiago, I never thought that would happen. Until then, I'd done all my running in other cities because Santiago is so polluted; I never imagined it would feel right to run here. However, shortly after we arrived I saw the ad for the Adidas Marathon, and I thought 'why not?'. Anyway, it was fun, and now I'm looking forward to the next one. Will keep you posted.
