I am a Bicolano by birth and choice. By any standards, I am a slow runner but I like it that way. I look at running as a healthy and exciting way to make a difference. Together with my fellow runners from our family, school, office, and the community, we use running to give back.

These runners are often the hard core ones, who bereft of a support vehicle, have found ingenious ways of carbo loading and hydrating during the ultra marathon.
