May korona na, may medalya pa. Sa wakas, natupad na ni Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach ang pagiging finisher ng New York City (NYC) Marathon.
Sa isang Facebook post, ibinahagi ni Pia nang buong galak na kasama siya sa libo-libong sumali sa nasabing marathon at itinuturing niya itong "best run" sa buong buhay niya.
"I did it! We did it! The NYC Marathon wasn't a race, it was an experience. A life lesson. Probably the best run of my life. I saw and felt so much. I AM SO HAPPY, and grateful, inspired, humbled, and emotional…lahat na!" wika niya sa caption mga larawang ini-upload niya.
Wika ni Pia, ang medalyang nakuha niya ay hindi lamang sagisag ng tagumpay, kung hindi pati na rin umano ng kahalagahan ng pagtupad ng mga pangako sa sarili.
"This medal represents how important it is that we keep the promises we make to ourselves. To me, it was running because I wanted a new challenge, a new discipline—to be healthier and to step out of my comfort zone, to see how far I can go. I knew it would take time and dedication to achieve it but I wanted to stick to that promise no matter where life or work pulled me," saad niya.
"Over the years, I got used to being at the service of others and most of my decisions revolved around work or pleasing others. This time, I stuck by running a marathon for me. This was my way of taking care of myself. And now, it has enriched my life so much because it has put me in a better place, so I feel recharged & energized to be of service to others," pagpapatuloy ng celebrity.
Samantala, pinasalamatan din ni Pia ang lahat ng sumuporta sa kanya sa mismong marathon man o sa online.
"I'm grateful for all the support and cheering on ground and online. I saw your signages, your messages, and posts—kahit sobra 'yong kaba ko and 'yong pagod, five hours in, lumalakas loob ko," aniya. "Puwede ko na ring sabihin ngayon: Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach from the Philippines, proudly an NYC marathon finisher."
