Suman Fit

It's a just a few more days before the 15K Mizuno run at the Fort. I've been "training" the past few days, running a full hour at the Marikina track & field oval. I planned to run two hours but I couldn't get past the one-hour mark, it's difficult especially when you're running around in circles, at some point you'd want to just drop and lie down on the verdant soccer field. A lot of runners sporting uniforms from various races (Adidas, La Salle, Sta. Lucia, among others) were probably training for the longish run this Sunday as well.

When I got my race singlet last Friday, the organizers already ran out of medium sizes. The "large" ones were just too large for my frame, so I decided to get the smallest size. The fabric happens to be stretchable, so I can still force-fit myself into the uniform-- by inhaling deeply and holding my breath for like, forever. I probably looked like suman but I figured I could still lose a few pounds from all this running anyway. It means there's a helluva lot good chance that I could fit snugly into the small-sized race shirt come Sunday.
