Hello my dear Steemians,

 

Last couple of weeks there is preparation for the half marathon that will take place in our city. It is already a tradition and usually we see many familiar faces every time. There are many different goals that such events gathering funds.

This time it is going around our town, also many streets are already have marking that the traffic will be stopped for half of day.

Many of the participants running this path for the last few weeks. The closer to the day the more people running. Last weekend when we visited our big park we saw that there were many people already running and I thought that it is a day.

There are many many volunteers who giving water and snacks for runners.

Here is the map of the half marathon.

We decided not to interfere the runners and decided to go to the lake. It is a time for the birds and the young birds to learn swimming and flying.

New cafe and Hot chocolate

 

After our walk we went through our town and noticed a new cafe, it was very early therefore it was not many people in cafe that is why we decided to try something but decided for Hot chocolate.

We tried many different type of hot chocolate before, this one had not very concentrated one so was okay but not the best one.

What I like the wall with book shelves and such big lights under ceiling.

Thank you very much dear @steemladies, nice to see your support :)

Thank you for supporting my Marathon post :)

Reading about Half marathon was a pleasure, but Honestly! I felt even more peace at seeing the beautiful and picturesque surroundings Like Big Park and Beautiful Lake. Taking a walk in such lovely places is a truly unique delight.

I ❤️ Greenery

I love the surrounding too, it is good that many sections of the path are going through green areas, so that it is not only asphalt and buildings. The park is wonderful place for enjoying peace and also to bring children for play. I hope only that weather is dry and too much sun, maybe cloudy would be perfect :)

Although I ran a lot of 10K and half marathons in a distant past, I was never much of a fan of big crowds... runners, or otherwise!

I'd say sitting by the lake is a far more enjoyable way to spend the day!

I think running for yourself is something like a meditation, you have your speed and your goal and just go ahead. Running in such a group is very distractible, because in such marathon that is going to happen in our area, everyone is welcome, that means people may even not to be runners and just took part for charity. It is noticeable how the runners at the beginning are concentrated, they do not pay attention to anyone and just run with their one pace quite distanced from others. That deserves all respect. The same time you can see that those who are in front of the crowd have a good gap from the rest and maybe that is also helpful for them to do what they like to do :)

Thank you, friend!

Hola amigo que bien que se preparen para la media maratón que es fuerte correr 21 kilómetro pero debe ver satisfactorio llegar a la meta.

Yes, it is a long distance often we are not sure if we make it, but many will try even to check how far they can go :)
