5 K Familiar [Esp/Eng]

The family since ancient times has been considered the fundamental cell of society...a society that has been evolving in its family structures and the recognition of the same by the relationships by consanguinity and affinity.

We find families of families with large numbers of members, over time the generations are created within the same ... everything starts with the parents, then the children, then the grandchildren and then the great-grandchildren.

It is an adventure when these moments of encounters take place, where the ingredient of these times is the emigration of many of its members, however when the calls are made, we go, according to the time of each one.

How was the 5K Family Walk born?

Well, this month of December did its part to bring joy to the family because after approximately 7 years, three members of the family were able to return to the country for a few days and others for a little longer. Meetings came and went, a week of great emotional intensity. The big reunion took place in a country place in El Tigre/Anzoátegui, a pool party where we shared, enjoyed, laughed, smiled, promised, etc.

The people were so full of enthusiasm that a family walk began to take place in the group, that's where it all started.

Most of us were so enthusiastic about the activity that we organized the day. When the night before the event arrived, we thought it was not going to happen due to lack of quorum, because not everyone was up for it, but we managed to get a group of 14 people who said YES to the meeting.

We were taking notes and what we would bring (fruit, water, coffee)...until they confirmed that the activity would take place, the group was ready to start.

We met at the home of one of the nieces, 6:30 am was the scheduled time. It was a challenge for all of us to leave our homes to go to this meeting. It was a process that everyone enjoyed from their own space (getting up earlier than every day, taking a bus to go to the meeting for those of us who do not have cars).

We arrived at the scheduled time. Good morning greetings, smiles, happiness. We warmed up a little. warm up led by a member of the family of 6 years who is in the world of training (sports activities). We mapped out the route. We agreed to go each one at his own pace because we all do not have the training for it and do it as a competition.

At the end of the route, one of the girls had a small mishap, nothing to regret. A family moment to oxygenate between laughter, meetings, water, cambures, coffee, at the end of the route.

The emotion was so great that it was agreed to repeat it before the carnival festivities. It was left as a task that those of us who are not used to these trainings start to do it so that when the day of the second meeting of the 5K family walk arrives, it will be faster, not so much walking and talking. We all said siiii , to the next meeting.

It is up to each one of us to follow the instructions of the experts in the K...to encourage the others to join in, the idea is to meet more, to share more and for the little ones to recognize the uncles and aunts that we almost never see each other. In order to strengthen family ties.
