7:00 PM 31 October 2008 @ Bonifacio High Street (BHS) Loop, The Fort

Whoever thought of this run, he/she should be congratulated for thinking and implementing this run for the first time in the country. The race was a 5K run which takes every runner to go around the BHS loop for four times. As I arrived at the vicinity of R.O.X. Store one hour before the start of the race, I already concluded that the race was a success. Lots of runners, with their relatives and friends, in their different costumes and outfits appropriate for a Halloween Party were everywhere at the BHS area waiting for the race to start.

Even if there were no cash prizes at stake for the said run, “Team Bald Runner” fielded some of its runners for the fun and be part of the inaugural Halloween run. The car maker Isuzu was the main sponsor for this event and they did a good job in organizing this event. Although there were some slight “hitches” and “minor” problems, the race was something to look forward to join every 31st of October.

Two weeks ago, I formally organized “Team Bald Runner” as an elite group of distance runners based in Metro Manila whose aim is for its members to qualify for future international games and eventually, to the Olympic Games. My outfit, Bald Runner’s Events, provides the training and coaching; accommodation in Metro Manila and food/medical support; employment; and travel & food support to races outside Metro Manila. Initially, I have ten (10) athletes—7 male & 3 female. Most of these athletes are regular winners of road races in Metro Manila. I, together with my staff, manage these athletes and advise them where they are scheduled to compete. If there are cash prizes to be awarded to the top runners, for sure, Team Bald Runner is there. It should be noted that whatever cash earned by any of the athletes is his/her own to keep and we only provide them the necessary advise to save their earnings or advise them to send their earnings to their homes to support their family.
