RUN WITH THE LIGHT: Gerry’s First 5Km Fun Run in the Philippines.
by: Vicboy de Lima
One of the 83nean runners’ goals for 2011 is to have first time runners among its batchmates join and finish a fun run. After Dan Paulino and Rico Sabalvoro at the Takbo.ph Nightfest (April 9), the accomplishment of this goal continues with Gerry Cortez running the 5-km at the Run with the Light at Alabang last Saturday (April 16).
The marathoners of Batch 83 (Fards, Bob and Vicboy) joined and paced Gerry in his first 5-Km fun run in the Philippines. Ernie and Ed ran the 15-km distance of the same fun run. The route took the runners inside the Ayala Alabang village.
After Gerry, who’s next to join Batch 83’s growing running community?
