Mission Accomplished... well almost...

It was a fun and festive mood earlier today at The Fort area. The Condura Run 09, Skyway Run For The Whale Sharks; conceptualized by the running Concepcion brothers Patrick and Ton (first name basis kami... close)

I have no target finishing time, since it was my first 21k race. I just want to have fun, run at the SkyWay and finish the race injury free.

I arrived early. I was there before 5:00am hoping to have time to warm-up. Before I was able to dress-up and check-in my bag, I went to the portalet to relieve myself.

As soon as I came out of the portalet, the Philippine National Anthem was being played. Ang sarap ng feeling, parang basketball championship.

10 mins before the race started, I again went to the portalet. Which was a good thing because I don't want to go and pee during the race. (conservative ako eh) =)

ganyan kahaba ang pila sa portalets

The race started at exactly 5:30am. Check the route below (Natz, I grabbed this from your blog. Thanks!... as if babasahin ni Natz blog ko.... hahahahaha)


si pojie, pao, red, chelly & tim...

just entered the SkyWay minus the bading... joke ulit...

It was a nice feeling, when we reached the top of the SkyWay. Ibang klase ang high!


Skyway, going back to Buendia.


Office namin...

I also captured videos while running on the SkyWay. Inom muna kayo bonamine, baka biyahilo kayo.



After coming down from the SkyWay to Buendia, it was all business for me.

1K more before the finish line, I removed my earphones and tucked it in my singlet.
Then I started to pray. I prayed St. Benedict's prayer. For some reason, St. Benedict's prayer works for me. I already witnessed it's power. If you want to learn more about it, google it. ;)

Teka... tayo ka nga muna... lakad ka ng konti. Wala lang, baka nahilo ka sa video eh. Concern lang ako.

Okay ka na? Let's continue...


o ha... gumagalaw no... thanks josiah for the pics!!!

When I crossed the finish line, the first thing that I wanted to do was sit down and not move for a while. I was planning to have the Condura shirt signed by the runners specially from the takbo.ph guys but I was so wasted. I wasn't even that active in the picture takings. *tissue please... nose-bleed*

Unofficialy, I finished the race in 2hr31min. We're still waiting for the official results. Update... official time is 2hr30min17secs!!! Pictures muna!!!
