Thumbs U.P.!

It was just one of those days when I just want to run - without a care in the world. (I didn't even notice my time when I finished the race*) The UP grounds that morning provided a very laid back atmosphere. The breeze was just right, the trees were enough to set the mood, ample aid stations, marshalls were everywhere, no frills, new and challenging route, and just a good number of fellow runners and friends enjoying a great morning run and blending in with the usual Sunday bunch.

Botak did a good job. Need I say more?

after changing, took shot of some of the runners before the finish line...






and a few post photo ops...

with college classmate and Inquirer sports desk editor Romina Austria


with Ian Alacar and the rest of the pack

*Looks like I really had a swell time. Just saw my official time> 0:57 - better than my last 5 mile of 1:08. But my name got lost under the male list - didn't think I was as fast as my bros :)
