Andy Innes is from Scotland and he is a teacher at the London School of English in Daegu, South Korea. He's joining the blog over the next week or two to tells us some stories about his time in Daegu.
In this post he's going to tell us about a 10km race he did.
'All my training in my excellently-priced gym came to a peak recently (in theory!), and I entered a 10K run here in Daegu. It was a fabulously crisp and clear morning, but my joy was eventually worn down as my nights out made themselves known and my fatigue took over! However, having the energy to sprint past so many people to the finish on the same running track the 2011 World Athletics Championships will be held on was something special, and the old feeling of forgetting about finishing times and enjoying the communal spirit took over! What a day! I got a cool medal with 'International Marathon' on it (with '10K' in small letters), as well as some Korean writing, so I was quite happy! I got a cool certificate too, even if the time on it was my worst ever!'
Look out for some more stories from Andy in the next couple of weeks!
