2022 Ruisui Township Half Marathon
I joined a half marathon recently...
...took a taxi from the hostel....(it was 4km walk...the race started super early as usual in Taiwan)...wake up time was 05.15...
......mountain in the horizon...
...and beetle nut trees...
...and Amis decorations...
...some sponsor stands...
...and girls in amis traditional dress...
...this was the race name...apparently they have races all over taiwan...
...they were playing Aqua on the speakers...
...while having some common warm up session...
..streching etc...
...some cool guy with a cool hairdo...
...here was the starting point...
...10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...and off we go...
...upp hill...
...to some fruit garden...
...and then on road 193...heading south...
...and it started to rain...
...I was pretty heavy...(100kg)...(which is my excuse for not getting the time as I use to get back in the days)...
...still got a medal...
...more amis patterns..
...the school where the run started and finished had many language signs...
...amis language...
...chinese and english signs...
...it was confusing if face mas was needed...I feel that the rules are very inconsistent...
...later they collected some stuff...even the safety-pins...which was good...
...people were later queing up for free stuff....
...and they announced the winners of the race...
...omg...taiwanese coffee...
...we all got vouchers to use...
...some local fruit...
...and indigenous stuff...
...millet donuts...
..best men...
...best women...
...some indigenous pattern along the roads...
...and a famous river on the east reef valley...which use to separate kavalan people from amis people...if one person entered the other side...they got their head chopped off...back in the days...(I was told)...
...I ended by trying some "tradicional egg" (I was told)...
