When the day melbourne is one hour closer to malaysia, CaMeLoDy wake up early (5am) in the morning just to do something meaningful.
I am going to participate in run for the kids! (for full story on event, read http://www.runforthekids.com.au/) and Melody is going to be volunteer on the event. I have participated in a white zone aka 5.7km walk.
Why we need to wake up that early?! the event start at 8am but Weribee public transport won't get us there until 8:30am (poor services on weekend!), we need to drive in early to find a free parking along the road (this is kiam siap way).
When we are there around 6am, the parking start filling up and luckily we just got a parking spot next to the event! Hurray!!
These are the mobile toilets that found in eventFirst, go to toilet before the run, after come out, I feel i am at least 2kg lighter! :P
Mix 101.1 - our favourite radio channel in the morningWalk around and found the channel We listen in the morning! too bad the Tom and bridgy are hosting it!
Sponsor drinks!
the map! the blue is the one i am running
Welby! is West Melboune-ny?The run start around 8:15am and i take a picture with this before my start...
the most hilarous thing is before i able to step on the start, the first runner actually finish the half 8 and meet us at the starting point ...
The walk started! Initially three of us start walking. Ming start to run after 0.5km and told me to meet in front. I continue walking and Alex accompanied me until 2.5km and he want to start jogging so left myself to continue my journey!
