Me: I’m so tired…
Head: It’s 8:45 on Sunday, what did you expect?
Me: It’s so cold.
Legs: When you’ll be running you will not think about the cold.
Me: Yeah, I’ll get warm quickly.
Head: I think they’re trying to tell you that you will be more worry about not to die than of the cold.
Legs: Jeje yeah.
Me: Why you say that? We have been training.
Head: You can run tree km and that’s a miracle. This is a six-km race… What will you do?
Me: I’ll see.
Legs: Let’s be honest, this looks bleak. Did you see us? This is not going to go well jaja it’s funny.
Me: At least you got sense of humor.
Stomach: The worst is that you didn’t take a good breakfast.
Me: We eat a lot so shut up.
Head: Scramble eggs, orange juice, toasts…
Stomach: Yeah, ok, but… that was like two hours ago.
Me: That was twenty minutes ago.
Stomach: I’m not going to make it. I advise that I don’t going to make it.
We must run with a lot of people. People who were ready to win. Police close a big avenue only for us. Everyone were sponsor their company.
I met my friends and we get ready for start. A man says something very loud and the race begin.
Legs: We got this.
Stomach: You can take one of those cereal bars if you finish the race.
Me: Cereal bar, cereal bar, cereal…
Head: Stopped.
Me: I’m metalizing.
Head: It didn’t work. Just focus on the race and try not to hit the people.
Me: There’s a lot. I’m going to take some pics.
Legs: We got this.
Head: It’s very strange to run on this avenue, but funny.
Me: Yes, you are right.
Stomach: You can have some drink too.
Me: Stomach. Stop. We’ll eat later.
Legs: We got this.
Head: Hey, take a look to your legs… something is wrong.
Me: It’s everything ok?
Legs: Of got! We course this!
Me: yeah… ok…
Head: They will stop working in 10 minutes.
Me: mmm…
Head: Look at them, they even know where they are, they are moving by inertia.
Me: Well, you are the one who control all of this. Just turn on the automatic mode.
Head: As you wish. Automatic legs ON.
Stomach: Grwwwrrg
Me: Really?
Stomach: Yes! You don’t listen to me then I complain!
Me: I don’t need this.
Stomach: GRWWRRGG!!
Me: …
Jefa de RRHH: Stefano how`re you doing! Everything’s good? Hurry up! I’m going to advance a little ok?
Me: Hello! Yeah perfectly! See you!
Head: See how she run…
Me: Yes…
Head: She has children… Did you know that?
Me: Shut up…
Head: Shame on you…
And that was how I was meeting all my friends and every one of them continue the race.
Voice: What the hell are you doing?
Me: What?
Head: I say nothing.
Voice: I’m your heart…
Me: My god, It’s everything ok?
Heart: What do you think? I’m hypotensive and you are running like you don’t care.
Me: But… this is good, right?
Heart: Of course not, this is the worst you can do to me…
Me: But running is good for hypotensive people, right?
Heart: I’m a heart, not a medic. And I know you will not like this.
Me: Like what? UUuugggfh… What’s happening! What a pain!
Head: jeje yeah like a knife.
Heart: Of course! What did you expect? Run some marathon only because you want?
Me: Why me…
Heart: That’s how I roll.
Me: I’m going to walk a little…
Head: Encouragement, we almost arrive to the half part of the race.
Me: How much remains?
Head: Like tree km.
Legs: We got this.
Me: I’ll die, why people do this? Why people pay for this!?
Head: Jeje yeah, I know, we have cars, right?
Tree kilometers later and walking, I meet my friends on the finish line.
Me: We did it…
Stomach: Finally! Where’re my cereal bars?
Girl that work there and have some bad news: I’m sorry, there’s no more cereal bars. Here you have some water.
Me: Thanks
Stomach: WHAT!? This is awful!
Me: Stop complain, look the good side, we finish the race.
Head: Relax, maybe we can find some food later.
Stomach: Mmm.
Head: I’m so proud of you.
Me: Thank you.
Head: Not you, I’m talking about the legs. I will turn off the automatic mode.
Legs: We … are… gonna… die.
Head: Good job. Now you can sleep.
CEO: Well guys, congratulations everyone! You wish to take some coffee now?
Me: See? At the end, you will eat.
Stomach: Nnnnice…
I finish my first race and I went to take a breakfast with my coworkers. And that’s how we are surpassing goals. Step by step. Because y you find troubles in your life the only thing you can do is keep walking.
