This was the first time I have registered in an event without my friend and to be honest, I was a little bit scared at that time because I had to run alone. However, the situation was not as I expected. I could easily greet other participants and communicate with them. I believe that, not all people are indifference unless you have tried to mingle with them. In fact, there were even outside participants who cheered for me throughout the run. They gave me words of encouragement to keep running. I want to use this ability to support my members or my colleagues at workplace in the future if they are having fatigue or want to give up their work. Besides, it is important to strategize your running pace and this was the moment I need to think carefully to make sure I was not burn out during running. For example, start with fast pace at the starting point and run in big steps. A few moments later, run in small steps to save energy to sprint at the finishing line. It is important to stay committed with running because once you try to stop, you will start to feel comfortable in taking break often. Thus, same goes when doing works, it is important to keep doing in slower pace as long as you don’t stop.
