THE 12 KILOMETERS OF CHRISTMAS: A Runners Take On A Classic Favorite

 

For many, including me, the "12 Days of Christmas" is both a  popular and a  perplexing Christmas carol out there. Popular, especially for schoolchildren celebrating Christmas parties in their school where often it would be a song sung in the many contests during the celebrations.  Perplexing because as a young kid back in the days, I really don't know what I was singing about - just some chanting of rhymes talking about various fowls and folks. But since it was Christmas time, a time filled with joy and friends sharing gifts, the young mind in me always associated happy memories with the "12 Days of Christmas" carol.
