RUN w/ Special Someone

Yesterday, I had my first sprint with my girl in Bulacan Sports Complex. That was our first time to run together, we planned it several times already before but all of them were remained plans. I am very happy and amazed with her performance because it seems that it wasn’t her first time to do a serious run, believe me, she completed 8 rounds of jogging-walking in a standard size oval knowing that her stamina is not that tough. Though, I completed 11 rounds of running/jogging/walking, her performance is still great.

At some stage of our conversation yesterday during our jogging, I asked her:

Me: what motivates you to run/jog knowing that you’re already slim and properly fit?

My girl: I’m doing this just for you to burn fats, and reduced those bad cholesterols in your big body

(she replied those words to me together with her beautiful smile and rosy chicks)

Me: really? Weeehh, are you sure, you’re not doing this just for you to run fast and be a runaway bride during our wedding?

My Girl: Hmmm.. That’s another story. Lolz

Until now, she still know how to handle me :->

Additional Info:

Running is one of my fashions and I’ve been into it for almost 2 years now. I’m just a so-so type of runner, meaning i only do running whenever I want; I’m not that competitive type.

I’m a proud member of D’Finisher Running & Mountaineering Team, we’re composed of professional employee in different field of industry (majority are from Sun Cellular Company). Before, our group is committed in joining different Fun run activities especially if it’s for a cause. But now, due to some confidential reasons, we’re not that active anymore though sometimes, we’re still attending if we have time. By the way, we’re open to accept members for those who are interested to be part of our group. J
