A friend asked me if I would join her in a 5km marathon（马拉松）. My first reaction was “What? A 5km marathon? Are you kidding?” I am a try-anything-at-least-once kind of girl, even if I end up regretting it later. It sounded like a 5km marathon might have been one of those “regretted it later” things, but it was not!

I signed up for （报名参加）the 5km marathon. The marathon benefited a local charity and it meant that you would help a local organization while you had fun. This was a win-win event for me. The 5km marathon seemed fun and it was like nothing I had ever done. We arrived early in the morning to line up for the race and there was music from a cool stage. People were throwing colorful balloons around and the atmosphere was telling of a fun period. The staff let runners go in waves, groups of about 1000 people. Before letting them run, they counted down. You could hear them shouting 10…9…8… So exciting! When we were about to run next, we ended up being in the front row. We were getting pounded with colored powder and loved every second of it. We counted down and ran!

I, together with other four kids, didn’t have much time to train. The good news was that I was not alone. A lot of people walked. Some walked fast. Some walked slowly, but they still walked. I felt not so bad after all. The best part was that I became more active and had fun while I was doing it. When we arrived at the destination, we were greeted by staff handing out colored packets. If you are considering getting more active and experiencing a 5km marathon without the pressure of winning, this is the run to sign up for. You will be so glad you did.
