10 k running competitions by cros_tim

Hello!

I am new on this page and I decided to write about my passion for running.

I have always liked to run, since school days. I was a member of an athletic club when I was in school, for about 2 years. We had training sessions in the morning, on the stadium of our city. I just loved to run on the stadium, and also to see the green grass of the football field. I gave up to the club during the 8th grade,when I had to study for an entrance exam for highschool. But I never gave up to the passion for running and keeping fit! I run in the area where I live and also in a park. This year I started again to run on a new stadium which belongs to the Polytechnics University. I train twice a week and my basic training is for 5-6 km, without any stop. I do some sprints too. I was encouraged by a friend and also by a sports teacher to participate at a 10k competition during the Timisoara marathon, on October 11. I was not sure I could run constantly for 10k so I subscribed in the last moment, following my instinct. I participated at the competition and I am very proud to say I run non stop for 10k and I was not even tired at the end of the race! I finished in 1h and 18 minutes. I would like to run again next year and to finish in a better time. I will focus on speed. Who knows, maybe one day I will participate at a half-marathon!
