Crystal Palace Wellness Run 29062008"Congratulation!, You have just completed your first 400 metres, you've got 2600 metres to go." The commentator shouted in his exciting voice.
"What does he mean just completed 400 metres, got 2600 to go?" The big man behind me said anxiously. "Look that poor kid, he started to walk already." He announced in his authoritative voice.
"Pushy parents!" Everyone laughed.
On the field, some heavy sets have already started to drag their legs, with their hands on their hips. And open their mouth so widely and gasping for air just like my poor fish.
Those helpless kids are half my height but twice my size. Looked like B52 bombers just got shot by MiGs, hovering over the ground. K---rrrrrrrr. Thud! Thud! How can they even survive the first round?
If any parents wants to put his or her child on that field to run 3000 metres, the least they can do is to feed their child with some descent food, not fish and chips nor fatty sausages.
God forbid. Next time, train them properly! putting them on these kind humiliation does not help their diet, and it won't get them any thinner.
