Fall is the right season for sports. It is not hot, in many places, it does not rain often.
A 5-km race happened in our neighborhood yesterday, I went and take some pictures. I'd like to share some of the pictures with you.
Because I am not familiar with the local condition, so some of my statements are only based on my own esitmation. I will use worlds like possible, may often.
The race began at 6:00 pm, it may be organized by some NGOs, a difference between such an activity here on one in our country may be, there is no slogan. Some companies may focus on such activities, so, they have equipments for start line, end line, and timer. Often this can only be carried out with a few staff.
And, no leader make any speech before or after the race.
Many people took part in this race, old, young, male, female, and even people in wheelchairs! Compared with the trophy, the registration fee is high. The registration fee is $15 per person, while the trophy for the champion is only $100.
The environmental quality, at least the air quality here is good, the sky was very blue at this time. So, it should be very nice to run 5 km under such a sky, when it was cool. You must feel cool, too.
Please see the pictures.
