My friends and I organised a 4.8 km fun run this morning, on behalf of pringles. Started at 6 am and the winners crossed the finish line in 14 minutes. He won a price of PHP50,000 pesos (US$1250) and several month's salary worth for some people, the first woman also got the same, and then P1000 each for the remaining 9 placers.
The Gimik was to have athletes run with an empty can of pringles, and then they would be handed a full can of pringles.
It was raining lightly, but we still got 80% of the registered athletes turned up - which is a bit more than 800 athletes. Quite a bit job organising races (I am just part of the support) - registration and planning(happens weeks to months before the race), water, toilets, finish line, race timing, awarding,
I was responsible for capturing the winners ('cause they get announced well before the family fun runners/walkers finish).
Was feeling pretty bad, stomach pain (this is going on 3 weeks now!), but did my job and went home.
Stomach pain worse today than yesterday. Slept, but now went to pick up my laptop that had been used. Chinese herbal medicine hasn't seemed to do anything, but give me hyperacidity, so far. She also
knows western medicine (I usually see her every 2 weeks, but she's been away for a month, and I'd been too busy to see her for the two weeks after she got back). I can only hope she would tell me to see a
regular Dr. if she thought it was something she couldn't deal with.
Anyway, will keep on til my boss leaves and then I'll go see if I can find another western med dr. OR may go see Doc Mike. Haven't texted him yet....
