A week (6 days to be exact) after running the New York City Marathon I went to Brazil to visit family and friends.
One thing is for sure, I come from a family of avid runners: a father who runs 7 Km 7 days a week (no more, no less), a marathoner uncle and a marathon trainer cousin (who will be running his first marathon in Vancouver 2011). When you combine all of us, the result is simple - a 10K race somewhere.
We ran the 10K 'Fila Night Run' with 12,000 runners in Sao Paulo, Brazil in a 37 degree weather at 8pm - yes, welcome to Brazil!
I thought my legs were going to be tired from the marathon, but the heat took over and all I could think was how hot it was. We all finished the 10K race in 57 minutes. I am almost positive I was the only Canadian there!
