  1. Congratulations to you and your team sir!

    I hope your team gets to see more international action kasi magagaling talaga sila.

    On a lighter note, parang napwersahan yata kayo mag tights sa lamig sir. =)

      heidi, thanks! i’ll try my best to send our runners in international ultra races sanctioned by the IAU as long as we have the support from the running community. yes, running in jeju island with an 8 celcius temperature was unthinkable for us who are used to hotter temperature. we were glad that there were no strong winds coming from the sea during the race.

      thanks, tin. without your support and your prayers this exposure for our athletes would not be possible. with more training and international exposure, our runners could run at par with the japanese & korean runners in ultra distance distance races. they had been running ultra races for the past 9-10 years and we just started. the cold temperature was really a big problem to us who are used to hotter temperature. thanks again! huwag kayong magsasawa sa pagtulong sa mga atleta natin. god bless!

    Congratulations guys. That’s so funny seeing you guys all layered up. 8 degrees celsius is perfect running temperature where I come from. I’d be in shorts and a singlet and loving it. Now you know how I felt going from below 0 degrees to 41degrees at BDM.
