There were 120,000 people joining 2008 ING Taipei Marathon. Shelby, my younger brother, is one of the members in the core team responsible for this event. As usual, I am proud of him! :-)
Check out the screen in the photo. It took more than 20 minutes to have all the runners to pass through the starting line.
Wen-Jun and I participated in the 3km fun run. I was surprised that it's quite short. Anyway, it was fun to run with so many people. Some people came with families, some people joined with friends, some people run with their dogs, and etc. People cheered up for strangers. One guy run backward for 42km... one old man finished 42km... everyone used his/her own position to participate. Some are professional, while the others are not. However, as long as people try their best, I think the positions are all beautiful!
