10K
Nasa Dumaguete ako kanina. No. I was in Dumaguete for a couple of days. Work has made me visit Dumaguete again. This time, I hooked the travel with something that I could do over the weekend.
Kanina, merong ganito sa may Quezon Park.
About 8,000 ang naka green shirt at tumakbo para sa Milo Marathon. Lahat kami gustong mabigyan ng sapatos na green and white for free. Ay hindi pala. Libreng olympic energy drink lang pala.
Nagbigay pala ang Nestlé ng pairs of rubber shoes to 140 lucky students of an elementary school here. Some of them may have written their names on the white foot patterns. Somehow, there’s a bit of owning some social responsibilities here, though corporate-backed, it’s for a noble cause.
I joined the 34th edition of the Milo Marathon. I chose to join here in Dumaguete because I missed out the chance in the Cebu City elims and that of Tagbilaran. I’m grateful for some friends who’d helped me out in the registration.
It’s my first 10K race. The previous races that I’ve joined were 5K events. This is a bit special. Personally I’ve turned the notch higher (or in this case, longer) but I just decided to try the 10K for bench-marking.
So I ran 10 kilometers in an unofficial time of 1:04:19. Not bad I guess.
I’ll keep on running.
