Fight Prostate Cancer

Mittwoch, 29. April 2009

I am back, finally !!! The problems with the VPN Connection are an issue of the past. From now on, you will read more articles from me, again. [Caution: There is still a massive space for improvement of my english wirting skillz, so please be forgiving. :-) ]....

Prostate Cancer is more or less the masculin counterpart to Breast Cancer, thus the money gathering activities of non-profit organisations which are dealing with these exigent diseases are pretty much the same. Both organisations sell their special coloured ribbon and both of them arrange broad range of activities. For instance, the Harry Rosen - Fight Prostante Cancer Spring Off Run - was organized to collect charity money from all patricipators - the attendance fee was 50 CAD$. 

Now guess which totally insane guy was paying this money to be part of this incredible stormy, mild rainy but extremly cold 5k run? Yes, it was me! 



The 5k hilly track was situated in the beautiful High Park in the West of Toronto (the bigges park of Toronto btw). And like i already mentioned, the weather was awful ! Probably the worst weather to run a 5k without any former training. Anyways, i here are some 

impressions...









Btw. my Time was under 25min! (24:53) Which is pretty good (i think) for an completly untrained runner like me (Check times here).
