There were 77 runners who started the Test Run from Abucay, Bataan but only 60 runners crossed the Finish Line in San Fernando, Pampanga.

Before the briefing of the run, we had a picture pose taken at the BDM Km Post #50. This run is again dedicated to the memory of our friend and BDM 102 “warrior”, Jay L Cu-Unjieng.

Surprise Bonus

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Races, Running, Running For Cause, Sports Program, Ultramarathon3 Comments

My PAU Races last year had been “notorious” and well-known because of the “surprise” element or factor that the runners had been accustomed to. Whenever I warn the runners that I have a “surprise” bonus for the race, it means that the runners had to run an extra distance more than the announced route distance. It could reach up to a maximum additional distance of 5 kilometers!

However, for this year’s BDM 160K Ultramarathon Race, the “surprise bonus” will be in the form of additional time (not distance) for the prescribed cut-off time. Finally, I’ve decided to set the cut-off time for the BDM 160K into 30 hours! Yes, you read it right! For each runner to claim his much-coveted prize of a Silver Belt Buckle for finishing the race, he/she should be able to cross the finish line in 30 hours or less!

Good luck to all the BDM 160K runners. You will be making history as your names will be immortalized as the Finishers in the 1st 100-Mile Solo Road Race in the country!

Result: 2011 BDM 58K Test Run

The following is the result of the BDM 58K Test Run last January 29, 2011 from BDM Km Post #102 in San Fernando, Pampanga to the Finish Line of the BDM 160K Ultramarathon Race at Capas National Shrine, Capas, Tarlac. The test run started at 5:30 PM and the last runner arrived after 10:30 hours.

This test run was dedicated as a tribute to our friend Joseph “Jay” Cu-Unjieng who was a twice BDM 102 finisher; PAU runner; duathlete; triathlete; and a product of BR’s “Speed” Training Clinic. His ever-smiling face and generosity will never be forgotten.  

Forty-six runners started the test run and 3 DNFed. Some runners for the BDM 102 also joined this run.

Visualize

Have you ever think on how you would be able to finish an ultra marathon distance run like the BDM 102 or the BDM 160? For those who have finished some of the PAU 50K races, it would be easy for them to visualize what it is like to finish the race, more so, if they have already finished a number of full marathon distance races.

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Places to Run, Practice Runs, Runners' Training, Running, Ultramarathon20 Comments

Some participants were confused when I made a link to my previous post last year about my guidelines on the conduct of the DBM 102 Test Run which was held last year. Except for the date, I was trying to inform this year’s runners that the guidelines I published last year will be the same instructions to be followed this coming Saturday except for some adjustments.

The following points/information should be considered by the runners during the conduct of the BDM 102 Test Run this coming Saturday, January 15, 2011. This is in addition to the guidelines published last year: Continue reading “2011 BDM 102 Test Run Instructions” →

Run Report: 2011 FAT ASS

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Pictures, Places to Run, Races, Runners' Training, Running, Ultramarathon2 Comments

(I jokingly said to the other runners that this run for me is called FAT ABS Run while showing them my tummy which had grown in shape/size and expanded due to the absence of any running activity for the past one month.)

This is a classic example of a run with fun and a chance to enjoy the company of other runners in a very relaxed atmosphere. Continue reading “Run Report: 2011 FAT ASS” →

Martin Fryer: Ultrarunner From Australia

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Pictures, Races, Runners' Training, Running, Trail Running, Ultramarathon2 Comments

Martin Fryer was the first ultrarunner whom I met at Soochow University and he happens to be from Australia. I started to know him when we had a conversation over lunch with the Race Director of the event, Frank Kou and I spent more time to talk to him later in the afternoon. I did not ask him about his past feats and credentials in ultrarunning as I could easily “Google” his name on the Internet. Continue reading “Martin Fryer: Ultrarunner From Australia” →
