  1. Thank you to all the CERC guys for making this year’s Sinulog Half Marathon a success, not only in participation, but also in the technical aspects. Definitely a staging of a full marathon is waiting for us in 2010!

  2. Hi. I was hoping to check out some write ups about Cebu marathon next year. I checked TBR and saw your blog. Looks like we have a few things in common, I’m also from the La Salle community (DLS-CSB) and studies near Casino Español in Kalaw (Instituto Cervantes). Hope to meet you in one of our races. Animo!
