2007 World Heart Day Run

Last Sunday, September 30, I joined the 2007 World Heart Day Run at the Cebu Doctors’ University Hospital along Osmena Boulevard. There were two categories, the 5-K and the 10-K. I joined the 10-K and clocked a personal best time of 52:39. Dr. Yong Larrazabal was there. Raymund Silot, one of the pillars of the Cebu Road Runners Club, helped organize the run that attracted over a hundred participants. We all enjoyed the run and it was a success! Enjoy these photos sent by Raymund…

  2. Hi John,
    Enjoyed the photos. But I couldn’t guess who that pretty girl was. Who is she? Still running but can’t seem to stretch myself to 5K, 3.2 miles. I have a route that I go in our neighborhood and it’s 2.7 miles. The lady who won the 5K in the recent Labangon race clocked at 22 some minutes; gosh, she’d leave me in the dust if I were to run side by side with her.
