THE WOMEN'S RACE
Every year hundreds of women run the women’s race.
They do it because they are representing and supporting all those women who
have breast cancer.
This year I have the chance to apply for running it, so
some friends and I decided to run it. For us it was a challenge because we had
never run a race before!! We wanted to finish it at all so we went out to finish
it in any way.
The race went through the main places of
Madrid, and it was awesome because while we were running we could enjoy the sight of
beautiful monuments, parks, etc. The race was 6,3Km long; the first two kilometers
were the worst ones because there was a huge amount of people, the rest of the
race was perfect!! It is true that the slopes were hard but there were several
people who cheered up us.
When we crossed the finish line we were so glad and
also exhausted. To finish it, it took us about 40 minutes!! When we arrived to
the finish line there were several stands with food, drinks, etc. We were so
hungry after the race that we went to eat a filling breakfast and it was
delicious!!
Most of the runners wore a pink t-shirt and a number, which
we had to pay for. The money raised was destined for the Spanish Association
Against Cancer.
I recommend
this race to all girls and also boys because it is an amazing and rewarding
experience. Remember that you make a gesture of generosity to someone who is
ill and you’ve never known if you are going to be in that position some day.
I hope you can run this race at least once because it
is really worth it!!!
