DC Comics Fun Run

When I saw the DC Comics Fun Run, I wanted to register just to get the singlet and the costume because it was cool. Then I invited my friends to join and they wanted to register for the 10k category ("-_-). I don't run or jog or exercise at all so this event pushed me to start since I don't want to be out of breath in the middle of the track (more like the first km in this case) or worse.

Registration itself was a challenge. Race packets were available at Chris Sports outlets and online. We tried buying packets at Chris Sports so we can fit it but they were always sold out. The sales lady told us stocks run out almost immediately after it reaches the store. So we just registered online and most sizes were already sold out too.

The 10k race packet costs PHP900 and contains a sling bag, a singlet of the hero of your choice, a mask/cape/crown depending on the hero, your race bib and a map.

I chose Wonder Woman because it's the only super hero available with female sizes. Other superhero choices were Batman (with mask), Superman (with cape), The Flash (with mask) and Green Lantern (with mask).

 The map also doubles as a poster.

 Lots of superheroes patrolling the MoA grounds last April 18, 23015.

 The Blur (Smallville)

 Groupie before the race starts.

We originally planned on walking the entire way but when the race begun everyone started to run then we panicked and ran with them as well (at least for the first km) XD

 Then we saw this beautiful beautiful view and can't help but stop and take a snapshot. #nofilter

 Or maybe we were just finding reasons to take a break XD

 Groupie after the race. Yay! We finished it!

And that's how I got my first 10k finisher's medal ^_^

IECEP Neon Run

My sister wanted me to register for the IECEP Neon Run so she could get the shirt and I said why don't we just both register and run? Registration costs PHP220 which includes a shirt and a baller.

The registration says to be there at 5:00am but I think we got a little too excited and arrived at 4:30am. XD Too bad there's no early bird award. XD

Heroes' Park at 4:30am

The registration started promptly at 5am while the actual race began a little over 6am.

Race Route: From Natividad Hall (Engineering Building) of Bulacan State University (BulSU) to Cabana's Cinema and back. 

According to Google, one way is around 3km so it's actually 6km back and forth T_T

Halfway Marker

There are also water stations setup along the race route. 

FINISH LINE!!!

I probably walked halfway (okay more than halfway) but hey I tried and got to the finish line so hooray! :)

 After the race, we indulged ourselves with the "healthy rice" it's a cup of fried rice with bacon and carrot bits which only costs PHP15!!! Where else can you find bacon rice that cheap?! And it tastes good too.

 After the race, there was a raffle using your registered number. My sister lost hers and Puregold was more than happy to replace it XD

 It's been a while since I've been to my Alma Mater and it feels good to be back.
