It was a perfect sunny morning! Everyone came with their biggest smiles as kids of different ages get ready at the starting line! Bang! The inaugural Alaska Milk Iron Kids Philippines was finally unleashed – suddenly the air was filled with intense happy emotions as mom and dad cheer! All the spectators clapped with exhilaration! 13 to 14 year olds started the event as they head towards the 3 kilometer goal! With smiles in their faces one can really feel how joyful each one of them are.
Then came the next group category. At exactly 7:15am, the 11 to 12 year olds hit the 2 kilometer race course in full speed. At 7:45am the 9 to 10 year olds took the 1.5 challenge with so much eagerness in their faces. And finally, the main event – the cute little boys and girls under 6 to 8 year old category made the race even more meaningful. In their innocence, everyone in the crowd was left with no other choice but to cheer and applaud as they ran away from the starting line! The atmosphere is very festive. It was a big child’s play not only for the real kids but more importantly to the super proud mom and dad, titos and titas and of course the lolos and lolas who also came to express their support!
And one by one they crossed the finish line. It was even more thrilling than the start! Kids smiled and jumped in happiness as they reached the end of their individual challenges. What a site to cherish!
CONGRATULATIONS to all – everyone is a winner!
Watch out for the next leg of this world class sporting event for KIDS – KIDS RULE!
