Well I have being jogging and jogging have become part of me. Yesterday being Saturday, I tried something else and that is marathon race. I participated at the 2019 Gala campus marathon and that's the first time they are organising it in Eastern region of the Nigeria. It was hosted by my school and exclusively for my school. Because I have being jogging, there was this high confidence in me that I will grab one of the prizes but then I noticed that there is difference between jogging and marathon race.
The marathon race was to cover 8km, that's running around the campus. Gala is a brand of sausage roll being produced in Nigeria and the Marathon is just one of there campus tour. As the race kicked off, the person that took first position started with high speed and ended with high speed. For me and some of my friends that participated, we thought it was just like normal jogging. That's when we noticed that to compete in Marathon race, you have to work on your endurance and pace. I was actually among the first 30 people to complete the race. I'm very happy to participate in the race and that's the first time of me participating in Marathon race
