Running

[wyette]

I had fun running alone yesterday, alright.

There was enough hydration tables and water and gatorade.

Gunstart for 21k started right on time.

 

But

Freebies for 21k was so konti. As in. A lootbag with a toothpaste and sachets of gel and some discount coupons. Tapos makita ko sa 10k they were giving out grab taxi shirts. Pinuntahan ko nga boothnggrab taxi. Telling them na dapat 21k finishers rin meron. Hehehe ayun, nabigyan ako atmay P150 cash back pa ako for using the app ion my way to the race venue that morning. Haha

Personally, that was a lousy run for me. I was super slow. But since im a year older, i did not care na. I ran/jogged at my own pace all throughout. No walking in between. Thats my consolation. Haha

 

Now, will prepare for milo manila elims. I miss doing a full. Sana lang makaabot sa registration..

 

Thank you to all who greeted me.

 

 

Ps. How true that there was/were mortalities at the last Ru2? Anybody heard that news?

Kailan ba yung start ng registrion ng Run United Philippine Marathon?

 

Back checking Runrio's announcements. It seems they open registration around 9 weeks prior to a race. So for RUPM, expect registration to start on the last week of July or first week of August.

 

Good luck sa RUPM!

good pm, me nagmention na rin nang corregidor marathon. Anybody joined last year? Magkano po ang damage. I've been to corregidor and spent the night sa hotel nila. I think i spent less than 6,000 inclusive of ferry, tour, overnight stay in a suite, and food for 2 persons. Most probably if I join this marathon, i'll be here 1 day before and leave 1 day after. I'll also skip the tour so I expect a minimum expense of 10,000.

 

Is this correct? Oh baka kulang?

 

I'm seriously considering to make this my first marathon. Kalaban nito ay condura skyway pero lamang talaga ito sa scenery. Ang ganda kasi nang view at ang linis nang simoy nang hangin. Patay ka nga lang sa hills. At magastos.

A friend did this in January this year. Registration fee was already P6,000. The route was two loops around the island, and all the participants said it was a very difficult route because of the steep climb sections. It's not an easy course, but it's very scenic.

 

Aabot nga around P10,000, or maybe even more, kung kasama hotel accommodations. The ferry fee is already included in the registration fee.

Medyo spot on nga ang estimate ko. If I include the estimated 42k registration fee and overlap the ferry fee, remove the tour, add 2 nights accommodation (3,000) plus food 300 per meal allowance, then I'll be spending around 12,000.

 

I've jogged there once nung nag overnight ako. But only for an hour. I believe the drastic elevation gains will happen if you start from the outermost area and go to the middle of the island. The tail is also lower than the head portion. Kaso, even if you only take the outermost roads pahiya pa rin ung heartbreak hill nang UP at Cardiac arrest nang La Vista.

 

 

It's something to consider.

 

Thank you

Be prepared for the sun. Gun start was at 6am last January. They also had full marathon qualifying time requirements for registration. Baka hindi pwede mag-first time marathon run. Please check the latest requirements just be sure. They've only announced the dates, but no mechanics yet.
