more than a week ago, or last 30 june 2012, i tried to register for Outbreak Manila...half heartedly. i went to Toby's Sports at SM North EDSA The Block. The girl near the counter said that registration is at their main branch located at the main part of SM North EDSA but she was informed hours earlier that the registration was already closed since the slots were filled up earlier that day. my reaction was "oh. ok." i didnt feel disappointed. i didnt feel happy about it either (since i saved some money by not being able to participate).
thats why i said half-heartedly. although i do want to join the race, im not that eager to fight for slots. im thinking, i might not be in the mood come race day so i would prefer to register near the last day of registration. well, unlike voter's registration, the runners/participants dont wait until the last day of registration. it took just a little over a week since registration started before the slots were filled up. since its my first time to hear of this event, i was surprised how fast people registered. but then again, ive never been interested in participating in this kind of event so i wouldnt know the average time for slots to be filled.
well, even if im not going to participate in the event, at least i still jog whenever i have time (i try not to run since my left knee is acting up again). unfortunately, ever since i started jogging again, i rarely have time. i miss my "at least thrice weekly" routine. im lucky to be able to jog twice in a week.
