So Many Firsts:

First Race for the Year : Since I have decided to wisely choose the races that I’ll be joining this is my first run for the year 2010.

First Race After My Wedding : I’m actually preparing for the Full Marathon for Condura however I got busy last quarter of 2009 for my wedding preparation. I got married last Dec. 18, 2009. :D

Me and my wife:(She didn’t join the race though)

First Time to Run on the Skyway : I joined the Condurarun last year but only for the 5km race so I decided to go for at least the Half Marathon Event this year to experience running on the Skyway.

First Race for my Supernova Sequence : Since I have preserved my Supernova Sequence and I seldom join races especially during the last quarter , this is the first race for miAdidas Supernova Sequence.

First Year Anniversary Race : Though a month advanced (Condura 2009 was sometime in March), I consider this to be my anniversary race because this was the first race I joined last year. :)

First Race of Aldrich : This is the first race of my officemate  and he was able to finish his 10km race with a decent time . Congrats dude….

The Actual Review :

What I liked :

  • The race started on time.
  • The fireworks display before gun start of every event.
  • Nice number of hydration stations.. (Special Mention to the Support Station of  Reinier Pacific and Takbo.ph)
  • The Skyway route is really a great experience.
  • The marching bands at various points of the race route really gave the runners an inspiration. Somehow made me hyped especially on my way back.
  • The booths at Condura village.From Ice cream sticks to back issues of men’s/women’s health , the asics expo , etc.
  • Prompt release of the race results.

I’m happy with this race because aside from the Skyway experience and the well organized event , I was also able to have a new PR for my 21km race. :) :) :)

This is such a nice start for my year. Im really looking forward to have my full marathon this year. Will continue to build mileage and who knows might make it for Milo Eliminations. :)
