After Kel and I’s silent outrage
on the loss of our beloved Condura Skyway Marathon racebibs, we finally gained
some confidence and had the chance to run again. This time, not on the Skyway
but along EDSA.
The Run for Juan 2013 event last
February 24 was entitled Run for Juan, Run for Good Governance. It is the
official race of the 27th EDSA People Power Anniversary. The event
was organized by the EDSA People Power Commission in partnership with the
Association of the Philippine Medical Colleges Student Network-NCR. The host
was none other than my dear alma mater, which was spearheaded by hard-working
groupmate, Bea Figueroa (Cheers!).
We arrived at exactly 4:20 that
morning because Kel was running the 21 km wave. I decided to take a power nap
inside the car since I’m running the 5 km wave and my race is yet start at 6
am. To my surprise, when I woke up, the 3 km runner have already started. I was
even kidding around with my friend Eian that morning whol told me, “Huwag ka
nang matulog. Sige ka baka paggising mo, naglilinis na sila.” Hahaha! Anyway, I
still managed to finish a bit early than the others, finishing 98th
amongst 148 5 km runners (partida, I had to wait for my friend Nikki pa. Haha!)
So here are a few photos from the
event.
Last photo was grabbed from
The Running Photographers Facebook page
Right after the event, we had the
sumptuous of breakfast at the much talked about Milky & Sunny in Kapitolyo,
Pasig.
And the rest was history.
