I am running with JCV

          On the 8th of december I had a great opportunity to participate in a half marathon in Lisbon.
 The name of the race was Discovery Half Marathon and for me it was very special since it was my first half marathon here in Portugal. My friends Sztojka Monika and Branislav Stankovic had a great idea to ask Juventude Cruz Vermelha to support me to run the competition. Our friend, Pietro designed a very nice t-shirt saying that : ,, Eu corro com Juventude de Braga” For me it was an honour to wear and under the race, it made me even more motivated to do my best and run as fast as I can. I was lucky because I had good friends coming along with me and some of them were professional for a long time too.
 
        To be honest, even this competition seemed easy by first looking at it, the last 2 kilometers were one of the hardest of all for me since my knees hurt very bad. All in all I still can say that I enjoyed every moment of it and want to say thank you for the Cruz Vermelha too to support me and to give me a chance to run my first race here with them. I won’t stop doing running so there are many other races ahead of me so I am looking forward to all of them.

Colorir as ferias - grand finale




       Our summer activities, in all of glory, has finished with socks theatre play. We worked with kids on play about two weeks. And kids had been our managers, producers, directors , screenwriters and actors. Kids imagination can achieve everything. Because of that, contributors in our little show were Justin Bieber, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Jackie Chan ..
      And story- line, with which they came out , completely thrilled us. During "Porto one day trip", kids had found a dog. They gave him name - Henry, because he had "moustache" looked a like Henry Dunant´s. When they arrived in Braga, Henry , somehow , ran away. Kids and volunteers were decided to find him. They started asking people did they saw Henry. In they seeking adventure they had  met  Sun fairy on Bom Jesus,  Justin Bieber on swimming pool ,Jackie Chan in school playground. Jackie sent us to Camara Municipal to ask Ana and Christina , girl who teach kids to make tiles , but they were on Roman thermal spring. Story is going on … Guard of Roman thermal spring, ancient Roman soldier had sent kids to “Museum do Biscinos” where which is living with all captured pets .
       Evil witch in , all her evilness , has one weakness. She falls asleep when it's snowing. Thanks to kid imagination, we had snow in Braga during summer. Recipe is to close your eyes and wish snow really hard.  For us was reall one, not made out from the styrofoam. Witch felt asleep, Henry escaped and his footprints showed us where he went. He went to Prado. But in Prado, he met Miguel first aid teacher and volunteer,  and not just him. Jean Claude Van Damme is firefighter, and with his truck we came back to Braga…  Are you following the story? Kid imagination, free afternoon and a bit of sun…. Imagine all of effort to make sock puppet for each character same like they imagine them. And menage to put in story everything what they liked the most from fifthy days of summer activities. And for all of us was easy like game.
There is not end of story.  Till end kids will meet Garfield on the cooking show  and once again Sun fairy. I will not say how story ends. You should see that…
