Experience From Flora's Women Mini Marathon thanks to Flora Women's Mini Marathon


It was great experience to be part of 40,000 women and walk 10k for a good cause.. 
Wasn’t easy or tough and I wasn’t competing either. All I wanted was to enjoy the atmosphere was great to see so many colours.. mmmm where did all these women come from and after the race all vanished away.. all that was left in the streets was empty cups..and no sign of any thing big happened.. This is the World’s biggest womens event is what registered in my subconscious mind…
Was watching different t-shirts and reading the charity names written on the shirts. Some were doing for a lost child, dad, mom and loved ones who battled with some life threatening diseases and making awareness and everyone has a reason to be part of this event. Some walked chatting away with best mates, some made new friends on the way, some did for proving themselves that they CAN DO IT.
Was great to see the cheer leaders and Kids screaming Bravo and nearly there.. wow lifted the spirits to complete the walk..
There are all sorts of Races and Colours and nationalities in the FWMM ,some in crutches some in wheelchairs supported by family members, some with artificial legs.. wow this was amazing to see the spirit of everyone to be part of it..
Love to know the reasons for being part of the Race one day, of everyone who comes forward to register....
This is my second experience guess many more to come…
And It was a coincidence to have my birthday on the same and got a chance to celebrate over 40,000 people.. wow loved the moments when I met my family and Kids greeted me with Cards/Cake.. just a fantastic memorable day in my life.
Thank you Flora Mini Marathon team
