During the Runnex @ 25 race a couple of weeks back, I finished in 1 hr 3 minutes. In Takbo Para sa Puso’s race this morning, my unofficial time according to my Polar is 1 hr 1 minute and 2 seconds! OMG! If I had run a little bit faster, I could claim to the whole world that my 10k time is 1 hour. Anywaaaaays, I am still extremely happy because this is my best 10k time. To celebrate, my cousin and I decided to have breakfast at Rodic’s. Love their tapsilog and you can’t beat the Php60.00 price!
Today’s race is well organized as expected. The gun start was at 5:55am for the 10k race. After 5 minutes, the 5k runners will follow. I was at the AS building when the elite 5k runners passed me. Ice cold water was available and overflowing! I am always afraid that for slow starters like me who are usually at the tail-end of the pack, will have a higher chance of encountering empty water stations. It didn’t happen in this race because agua is in abundance! I hope every race is like this.
Don’t know the next race we will be joining. I heard there is another Mizuno Run sometime June but I have yet to see details of the race. There are also 21k races scheduled for next month that I saw in PhilRunner’s site. One will be on June 15 at Camp Aguinaldo called the 8th DND Half Marathon and the other one is the 2008 Manila Marathon Mayor’s Cup in Luneta on June 22. Seriously considering to join one of these two races.
