"WALANG IWANAN"
"WALANG IWANAN"
This Sunday brought stormy weather again, but to us, runners, it is not an obstacle. Rain or shine, if there is a run, such as today’s Robinsons Supermarket’s “Fit & Run” 5 km Wellness Buddy Run, we show up.
At today’s run, I was pleasantly surprised to run into Tani Lim, a family friend who is also a blackbelter in karatedo, participating with her boyfriend. Another friend, a regular at runs such as this was also present–Col. Oscar Lopez with his staff from the Philippine Army.
Unlike other races, this one used a new concept–Runners could not enter the finish line without their running partner. “Walang iwanan!” My partner was Mar, a 70 year old veteran runner. Mar and I wanted to have a good time, but the course of the race was like a wave, an up and down road from The Fort going to the Phil. Army Parade Grounds. We participants and organizers were so lucky that it didn’t rain throughout the race. My partner and I were timed 32 minutes and 30 sec. at the finish line.
This race was well organized and runners had plenty of groceries to take home.
