"on a shoestring"

Do you still remember last year’s Greenfied City Sunset Run? Here’s my account of last year’s Sunset Run.

This year’s run is quite different as this is the first advocacy run for Greenfield City- its for Cleaner Air.

This is what I got from the Bloggers’ Launch–

“Greenfield Clean Air Run” will be held on May 29, 2011 at Greenfield City, Paseo de Sta. Rosa. This event features 4 race categories: 500m dash (for children 5 to 12 years old), 5km,10km and 21km.
