This morning I got up and donned my brand new yellow t-shirt, black shorts, and ethiopian flag headband and armbands. I was fully prepared for the 10k+ of walking I had ahead of me. Running/jogging may have been possible, if we would have decided early on, but there were way too many people in the way at the point that we started. I am still not sure who won, but Haile Gebre Sellassie had competition this year from the Kenyans, but I was assured that he would never let a non-Ethiopian win the race. It was described as the biggest road race ever in Africa,which was pretty cool to be a part of. I was suprised by how quickly 10k went by, it was not as difficult as i imagined. But then again, I was walking it. 3 weeks left until I am back in the States. I will try and blog one last time about my ISP once it is done.
