Running for the Nation!

The Re-EVOLver Crew was part of the RunNat event that took place last Saturday. Run For The Nation or RunNat is a single morning running event that sees Christians praying as they run throughout selected areas in the city or town where the event is held. The Runners are grouped into teams of three and each Team is required to cover a 5km run of a preselected route passing by homes, schools, commercial areas, government buildings, religious sites and other places of interest.
As the Team runs, one will lead in prayer while the other two will agree. With the aim to cover most grounds, the run adopts the relay style by using Prayer Cards in replacement of batons. RunNat 2009 is a nationwide event involving all 14 state capitals in the country. The Prayer Run was held simultaneously throughout the country with the guidance and leadership of each state’s RunNat Committee.

We (Darren, Wilson and Kai Wen) formed our own group and their team manager was Pragas. We had a good time of running and praying for many issues concerning our nation. As mentioned above, we prayed for the community, schools, government body, etc. We managed to finish the 5km run and we are looking forward for the 10km run next year. May a revolution take place through this event.
