Great Things Start From Small Beginnings

The longest and the biggest foot race in the Philipines, the Milo Marathon is now on it's 34th year. And this time, the race is also for a cause. Proceeds from the race will provide running shoes for the under privilege children in all cities where a Milo Marathon Elimination Race will be held.

This year also, there's a qualifying time for every age category in the 42K eliminations in Manila. Wow, mura'g Boston! The race will kick off this July 4, 2010 in Metro Manila. Here in the Visayas, the elimination leg will start on September 5 in Cebu City, followed by Tagbilaran, Bohol on September 12, Dumaguete City on September 19, and Iloilo City on September 26. I ran the 5K last year which was a bit of a traumatic experience for me, thus I made a vow not to run the 5K again. 10K or 21K? Just wait and see.

Oh, by the way, I already saw the TVC.Who knows, through our efforts, we can discover the next Lydia de Vega.

Takbo na!

Silliman Run on August 22

 Silliman Hall

So far, it's been a boring day at the office, so I took a peek at my Facebook account. My former dorm manager back in college posted in her status that the Silliman University Cebu Alumni will be staging the Silliman Run 2010 this Aug. 22, 2010 at the Terraces in Ayala Center-Cebu. There will be three race categories: 3K, 5K and 10K.This will be fund-raising activity, so everyone's encouraged to participate.

I contacted Mr. Nonoy Castillon for further information, and he sent me a personal message on my Facebook account. In his message, it stated that there will be a P50.00 price cut on the registration fee. For on-site registrants, there will be an additional P50.00 for your registration fee. The registration fee is at P250.00.

Fan Mail

I opened my e-mail this morning, and lo and behold, a FAN MAIL! Let me share you the e-mail.

Hello,

I have read about your "Runner" blog and I find it informative...
I just started running in May and my first run was Rundaue 2010. I enjoyed it a lot. And Im planning to keep this lifestyle for good...  aside from its making me physically fit, its a good way to socialize (meet new friends)...

Please do continue to post about schedules of the "runs" in Cebu... Your blog is indeed helpful!


P.S.
Looking forward to meet you in one of the "runs"!

Thanks,

IO :-)

Thank you Mr. Ireneo Fabiano for your e-mail! It really made my day! Sorry, I just "copy-and-paste" your e-mail.
