Finally, I earned my #Legit Boston Qualifier at the age of 65 years old at the 2017 Revel Canyon City Marathon Race with an official time of 3:46:06 hours. My BQ time for my age is 4:10 hours.
My New PR since I retired from the military service & as the Bald Runner.
Boston, here I come in April 2019!
Bonus: I won the First Place in my Age Category Group (65-69 years old) out 16 Finishers.
Aside from being a Senior Citizen, I am the ONLY General of the Armed Forces of the Philippines as a Boston Marathon Qualifier.
Sir Jovs,
Very Impressive! It is a big dream for a marathoner to qualify for the holy grail of marathon, the Boston Marathon.
Hope to qualify again and see you in 2019.
