  3. Hey BDM! I’d like to run the 102K in March 2014. I’ve run a couple of marathons and will be doing my first 2 Ultras this Sept. My great uncle perished at the WWII BDM and I’d like to combine this race by visiting Bataan and learn more about this new info about my family that I just learned the last year. BTW, I live in San Diego, CA and will travel there. I’m also willing to do a fundraiser for a WWII BDM cause of the race’s choice if that increases my chances of getting into the race. Please let me know and thanks!

  4. Latest 42K Marathon: 4:50:56 Rock’n’Roll Marathon San Diego
    Ultramarathons: First one will be on 09/07 Endure The Bear 50K in Big Bear, CA and next one will be on 09/22 The Spartan Race Ultra Beast in Killington, Vermont. If understood correctly, I have to do the 102K first to qualify for the 160K right?

      1. Thank you sir! I will register officially and follow the procedure above. I just ran my first 50K this past weekend. The Endure The Bear race was actually more 53K, up in Big Bear, CA. Starting elevation was 6,750-ft and my running app MapMyRun showed 12,322 feet of total elevation gain. I ran it in 8:42 but stopped frequently to make sure my friend was ok. I’m very excited to visit the Philippines again. I haven’t been back since 2001 and I have family in Bataan. I will be doing a fundraiser for this run with a dedication at every KM that I accomplish, this is a personal as this will be dedicated to my Mom’s uncle who died during the BDM in WWII. My run is dedicated to Celerino Oliman Tauat (Tawat). Thanks again for accepting my race application. I will train hard to make sure I run better by March 2014. Salamat po 🙂
