Wellness 10k Run

Held at Crystal Palace, London it was one of the many "run and return" races in this country. I call it the no-frills race i.e normal road race minus all the pretty stuff like advertisement, promotions and goodies.

They did have a mascot run, an inflatable finishing archway, water stations and medals though! So it wasn't as no-frills as I thought. Good enough for a 10k race.

There's really nothing much to talk about the race. It's just a 10k race that took place in good weather and in a weird park with some funny looking dinosaurs in a vast area that looked like the Roman ruins. According to the BBC, this place is cursed by bad luck and financial crisis. The ruins I saw were the results of disasters that happened one after another.

Number wise, I am quite satisfied with my performance and thank God, nothing that's indicative of a bad luck.

Time: 44mins 39secs.
