Hi everybody,
On Saturday January 13, I attended of Rainy run for reading. At 10:30 sharp no, maybe a little bit late was started 5K long run, walk around Green Lake. Snow and freeze made this race unforgettable. I have never ran in weather like that, I use to cross-country ski in winter, but run was something special for me.
I think that, everybody who attended race won. But if you want little competition point of view, race was won by a man with black dog. I forget they names, but especially the dog looks like pretty stronger runner. I wish keep to ran with that dog. This first annual run attended about 20 people and I saw many happy faces in finish line. My face was the happiest, when I had a bottle of water, a cup of coffee and a banana after the race. Such great refreshment! I also got a t-shirt with the logo of race and accidentally I got a blue balloon. So it was a little materially summary of race. I met there a lot of my classmate from ESL class, people from staff of Literacy Source and some strangers. Strangers were as usually a very polite. How Americans like to say I had FUN!
Event was organize for raise money for Literacy Source & increase community awareness about the issue of literacy.
Literacy Source is my favorite community center. I have been going to ESL class in this center for 3 years. Can you imagine that? That is long time.
