This year, the race was split into three levels. The first was the cursa solidària, only 800 meters long so that everybody who wanted could take part. The second one was the cursa infantil for children and their parents and the third one was the main race. Most of the money collected through the participant’s fee of € 2 per person will go to a charity project called “Sport Aid” in Guinea and Guatemala, and to the campaign “one child, one ball” ("un infant, una pilota") aimed at the children of low-income households here locally.
Autumn is here and yesterday it was raining quite a bit, but today we only had a cloudy sky and thus perfect running conditions. After a minor personal fiasco in the main race of 7 km last year, I had decided to, this time, limit myself to run 1,5 km with our five-year-old. It was his first real competition and a great experience for both of us. The only family member who was not happy was the two-and-a-half year old, who also wanted to run. My wife immediately got the message and has already promised that next year we will all do this together.- - -
The winners of the 7 km Cursa Popular 2008 were Sebastien Cacond and Vinyet Noguero, in the cathegories men and women, respectively.

Hola Erik! Sóc la Maria, mare de l'Enric... Felicitats pel Blog, no el coneixia i m'ha sorprès trobar-hi tota la cultura vilanovina i molt més. A partir d'ara et llegiré i així estaré informada de tot el que belluga. Per cert, m'agrada molt la foto del l'Enric i del Marc. No en tenia cap de la cursa i aquesta és molt xula! Va ser una experiència molt bonica, valia la pena de participar a la cursa. L'any vinent i tornarem!!! Gràcies i fins aviat!
Hola Maria,
Gràcies per deixar-me un comentari - sempre em motiva molt!
Però no confiïs massa en la meva informació sobre les coses que passen per aquí - la meva perspectiva és força personal i subjectiva.
Finalment, estic d'acord que la foto d'els dos nois és molt bona i ho pot dir sense fanfarronejar, ja que no la vaig fer jo, sinó la Julia. Llàstima, que la foto de la seva pròpia familia no li va sortir amb la mateixa qualitat. ;-)
I love to do things with the kids in the weekend. Sometimes it's hard, the continuous jet-lags are killing me. This afternoon I am trading the YMCA swimming pool by a movie at the theater.
