UNFORGETABLE !
Happily, in this Fun Run - which is claimed to enjoy the highest participation rate per capita of the population (10% ?) - there was space and thought for the handicapped. Thus a prize for them too.
SOCIALISING.
In a similar way to what happened when the Nauru team came to Tarawa the previous weekend, there was also a degree of socialising. The hospitality of the Nauruans was reflected in the invitations to dinner with the Nauru Athletics Executive, to one botaki (feast) with an I-Kiribati family, and to another with the Nauru Kiribati Community. Finally we had a BBQ with the sponsors. In between, there were visits from various Nauru athletes desiring company, advice, and simple friendship ! That is why we consider the venture a great success, apart from the results !
