To come at 8:30 to Maydan on Sunday... No wonder, that I overslept.. When I arrived, there were already Vova, Vitya, Petya, Melnyk, Halya, Svyat, and Buya. Tyoma, Lenko, and Vanya were even more late.           While we were putting on yellow T-Shirts and looking for the place to leave our backpacks, the run started. More than thousand people ran from Maydan towards Bessarabka. To be honest, the sight was exciting and shocking. After a little delay, we rushed towards the starting point to begin our run and join the crowd.  There were just 11 of us, and all were dressed in yellow T-shirts.  After first 200 meters I was in pain all over, the old years are not a blessing...Afterwards it went a lot easier up to the finish.  Buya ran half of the way and disappeared, we suspect that she took a subway, but she does not admit it. Melnyk was running around us with a camera, so there should be a video. When we were approaching the finish, the energy appeared somehow.  We held hands all together, and Vovka in the middle was dragging us forward. It looked amasing! We were ecstatic!  Afterwards, there was short breath, exchange of registration fliers to mineral water and T-Shirts of unsuitable sizes, and group photo.  This event was worth getting up so early on Sunday. Hopefully, it will become a good tradition for us. Masha, specially for saveandrey.com |
