Para dun sa baklang kalbo na muntik na akong banggain kanina nung malapit na sa Finish Line, (alam ko hindi muntik yun, alam ko sinasadya mo yun) I am not your competition kung naiinsecure ka sakin kasi may ilang races na nauunahan kita, we both know that. Kaya di na ako bumalik sa AdiNation of Runners sa MOA, naramdaman ko na di ako welcome dun kahit na tahimik lang ako, (yung isang tomboy na matanda na maliit dun pinaringgan pa ako na mahangin, e wala naman akong sinasabi, kasalanan ko ba na naka CWX ako at afford kong mg invest sa gamit ko?)

Again dun sa baklang kalbo na gusto akong banggain kanina sa Yakult run (sa 16k category), I’m not your competition bakla, mas bata ka sa akin siguro you’re in your 30’s lang 41 na ako at may anak na dalawa na malalaki na. Babae ang kasarian ko hindi tulad sayo kahit pusong babae ka, panglalaki pa rin ang kasarian mo. And I don’t know how long you’ve been running kasi ako nung June 19 last year sa Rock and Run ako nag start tumakbo. So humanap ka ng lalaki o bakla din na katulad mo, na ka age level mo at sa kanya ka makipag magalingan. Wag ako ang liit liit ko, babae ako at matanda na ko. Kung talagang magaling ka, milya-milya dapat ang layo mo sa akin hindi 1 second lang, ok? well, sa susunod gusto ko gawin mo sakin kung babangain mo ako e ituloy mong ibagsak ako para makasuhan kita.

Pagdating sa Finish Line, panay pa ang parinig nung friend mo na bakla rin na ang “galing-galing mo at ang bilis-bilis naunahan mo yung babaeng naka CWX” 1 second ka lang nauna sakin sa Finish at yun ay pinagbigyan kita, kung tutuusin pwede kong bawiin yun kaya lang mukhang badly needed mo to win against me hehehe, kakatuwa ka bakla. kakatuwa rin yung friend mong bakla, a shonga-shonga niya.

FYI, yung lagay na yun kanina inuubo ako at sinisipon, hirap na hirap ako huminga at lumolobo ang sipon ko sa ilong, paano pa kaya kung condition ako? Well, we did 16K in 1:40ish… you’re just a second ahead of me.

Tekla, sorry to hear about that.I’m sure whoever was that, he didnt mean to outspeed you. I have experienced the same too before and felt the same sentiments.But sooner you will realize..In running your direct competitor is “yourself”, he certainly competes with himself, he catches his new time and i know you know that Runner’s addiction. Runners have P.R. to catch and not unless they directly and deliberately afflict pain or violation in you..then its their fault and should say “sorry” to you. It also came into your senses na he should look for other runner who has his same speed or agility to compete with..beside how sure are you na ikaw ang ina-outspeed nya? darling, i’m pretty sure it’s not that way..just avoid feeling that way..and you should know about it coz ur running since June 2010..I, myself is a runner too, running since 2009..this experience has its purpose..remember that..Do not hate specific person or even a runnning group..its your choice to join any races and be prepared of any incident like this and face it strongly without bitterness and excuses.After all, running should be fun and competitive side of it follows next. Happy running!

congrats to all the participants who crossed the finished line! glad i survived my first gruelling 16km run!

@tekla: easy po lang po ma’am..baka po tumaas ang blood pressure nyo.. =D

di na pinag aaksayahan yang mga bagay na yan..at least safe po kayong naka-cross ng finish line knowing your condition during the race.. :D ..

takbo lang ng takbo …. :D

To the Yakult Organizer, ask ko lang sana if how can we get our race certificate for this race? Ano yun i-mail ba sa amin? Sabi po kasi meron daw pero finisher’s shirt (jersey) and a Yakult drink lang inabot after the run. Thanks.

@tekla: hayaan mo na sila, at least for your part you did your best. And it’s really difficult to understand that in running, the real competition is not about racing with other runners but eventually we’ll all learn that the real competition is against the little voice in our head that wants us to quit.

san pwede tumingin ng mga pictures

KAKA FINISH KO lang ng yakult RUN!! kahit puyat tinapos ko na! hope naka pr ako 0:27:00 xe ang 5k now

UP ZORRO!!! parang nakakabayo!
hope u all enjoyed the run!

2 singlets in one event!

i enjoyed the run!!!sarap!!!

sakit sa binti!ahahaha

oo nga pao.sana may certificate?

kailan kaya result?

Congrats runners. Mga ilan kaya ang sumali sa Yakult Run as against the Globe Run? Just being curious.

congratz to us all, especially 16k finishers!!

there were enough water stations at may sponge station pa… good job!!

sori nga pla s nasikuhan kong lalaki knina hbang nsa race… hehehe

eksaktong 300 lang yung kasali sa 10 miler?

Ms. Tekla,

I am sure the person did not intend to hit you in any way. You see, when you are “in the zone” so to speak, and that you are sprinting to get that “strong finish” you can’t just stop. You (who claim to have been running for some time now)of all people should know that. One second, 2 seconds, a minute, 30 minutes in time difference does not matter. I AM A SLOW RUNNER, but that does not affect me. You and I both know it is not in the gear you wear, but if you can cover the distance.

You say you are not welcome in ANR-MOA? If you have frequented our group, you will notice that ANR-MOA has 200+ members to date. Surely there has got to be a reason why the group keeps on growing considering it is one of the youngest groups.

Let me personally invite you to join us again… You may look for me (the name I used here is what they call me at ANR-MOA, and trust me, MOST OF THEM KNOWS BOOBOO)I will wait for you and post here about the experience in meeting / not meeting you — you know where to find the group.

Have a nice day.

gusto ko sanang batiin yung 5k-er na nadapa sa pagitan ng 2-3km marker. saludo ko tol sa fighting spirit mo. bangon-takbo.

@ Booboo, i wanted to join a running clinic to learn more about running and hopefully to gain friends or join the running network, luckily nakaregister ako noon sa Adination when I join last year’s KOTR. So when I heard of opening the MOA site natuwa ako kasi on Wednesdays nandun talaga ako to run after hearing a mass at Baclaran. To my excitement, first time ko to join the group, e nagsuot ako ng tamang gear for running, na di ko naman akalain na magmumukha pala akong mayabang sa iba dyan. Wala akong kakilala, tahimik lang ako nakijoin sa takbuhan then may narinig akong isang taong maliit nung nakita ako, biglang tiningnan ako mula ulo hanggang paa at nagparinig ng “may mahangin dito” sabay tingin sya sa grupo nya at tawanan sila. Kung ikaw ako, sa ganung sitwasyon, sa palagay mo welcoming gesture yun?

Since then, sabi ko ayoko na mag running clinic, solo ako tumatakbo kahit saan, sa UP, tuloy pa rin ako mag isang tumatakbo on Wednesday sa MOA. Minsan nakikita ko sa races and sa iba pang lugar mga familiar faces na nakita ko dyan sa MOA, napapansin ko lang, (oh well since iisa lang naman ang CWX ko dahil yun lang naman ang kaya kong bilhin kaya palagi ko yun suot lalo na pag long run to protect my knee cause I have a knee problem that’s why invested on CWX) parang they would give me this awkward look tapos biglag magtatawanan.

booboo – shouldn’t it be covering the distance in the best possible time your body could?

ang baba naman ng tingin mo sa sarili mo.

otherwise you could just stay on a treadmill.

nde nlng tumakbo ng tumakbo! sobra nmn makapagreact .. bkit knina nasa run sya nde nya kinausap at dito sya ngrereact ! … gusto mapagusapan sya .. sobrang artistahin nmn! … yakult run nmn toh nde showbiz ..

Yes! Its another successful run! im still this 5K category for my 7th run ….once again well organized run ever!

Kulang ata result ng 10miler…:-(

@ Booboo, nevermind, di ko naman gustong maging issue to, naglabas lang ako ng sama ng loob ko na matagal kong tinago ngayon lang sumiklab.

Pasensya na dun sa naiinis dyan, di ko po hiningi ang attention ng mga nag react dito. Pinili ko na hindi magsalita kanina sa race at awayin yung tao, kasi di po ako pala away na tao. kung sayo ok ang makipag away at umabot sa pisikal baka naman kasi nga hindi artistahin ang hitsura mo kaya pwedeng pwede isabak sa basag ulo.

Ms. Tekla,

I am sorry, IF that DID happen… I have never experienced such ever since I joined ANR-MOA. I have said all what I need to say in my previous post. I beg to disagree, but I can vouch for most members of ANR-MOA (yes, including the “kalbong bakla” and “little tomboy lady” — if my hunches are correct)

Again, it is not about the gear… I invest on my running gear as well, so let us not talk about it. I don’t think it will make you “mayabang” or people would judge you if you can afford CW-X or 2xu or if you run in Newtons or Asics… It is a matter of preference.

Anyway, you are still welcome to join ANR-MOA. I will not comment anymore after this since we are OFF TOPIC already.
MY INVITE STILL STANDS, if you decide not to come, then I guess we just have to let it pass since ranting and posting negative comments on this site would just do nothing.

Have a nice day.

To: Tekla–In full respect to you, Tekla..i understand what you feel. But do you think those runners that you called “kalbong bakla” and “tomboy na maliit na matanda” deserve respect and fair treatment too..the way you called or tagged them with your arrogant adjective is a clear sign that you’re not a “mature runner” the strictest sense of the word. All accidents and unexpected phenomenon inevitably happen in RUNNING.It so sad that despite your age 41 with 2 kids you still feel that paranoia na ikaw ang pinagtatawanan?..I myself enrolled in a Running clinic or special sessions too to improve my running skills, gain friends and overcome my weaknesses.You have entered a highly challenging sports–Running..therefore you should be prepared mentally, physically, spiritually and socially.Besides, there are lots of hazards in Running and you “must” be aware of that. collision of runners in the field,runner gets wet by a nearby runner who thrown cup with water, runners who spit while in the course and others are just few unavoidable incidents. And don’t blame them of such “accident” and Do not despise other runners because you thought that they simply criticize you or whatever reasons they have.In short “huwag ma-praning!”..Don’t expect so much refined manners from different runners while running..remember the basic of running “Runners are different in everyway” then if you want to experience these hazards ..go out and find a sport that fits your taste and won’t require physical challenge like playing board games, eating challenge or alike.Coz darling, If you continue that feeling, I guess attending session or clinic clearly applies to you.

hi! anybody wearing Garmin kanina? I think the race was 1k short…I was just logging splits and it seems its just 15kms.

just an observation… i notice some of the runners they tend to be “mayabang” if they are a member of a running clinic lolz. there was a girl kanina i was like ahead of her then on the 2nd loop nauna cya sakin she even looked at me and smiled in a mayabang way of smile. parang duh….wats ur problem? but since i love running i ignored her then sad to say i was like ahead of her at the finish line. nung 3rd loop na nauna na ko sknya sa may outside line na ko dumaan just to make her feel na im not competing her even the marshal shouted at me ng “mam sa loob po kayo tumakbo bka masagi kayo ng mga sasakyan”. then i saw her ngayn on one of the pics of the running clinic. ah kaya pala mayabang cya she is a member of….lolz

15.55 on my watch

guys if you use sports-tracker on your nokia to monitor your progress then maybe we could compare personal records and share tips on running. im new in this running sport and currently into boxing and bking. add me at sports-tracker.com rosliali.. congrats to all runners.

sad… antok me kanina… sayang nakareg pa naman ako.. hehee

Thanks Kitty :-)

‘Nuff said. Run.

ung result po ng 5k? salamat!

takbo lang ng takbo di maiiwasan yung mga ganyan..

two thumbs up para sa yakult!

yung route lang nakakalungkot loop at nung paakyat na kami sa buendia flyover sinarado/hinarangan ng mga taga takbo manileno yung daan sabi dun daw kami sa baba ed dun kami tumakbo sabay bigla kami tinawag ng marshall ng yakult akyat daw kami sa bridge.. hehe

admin bat ang unti ng nakasulat sa race results?

Don’t mind other runners na lang. Just concentrate on yourselves. You are competing against yourself naman and not with other runners. kung gusto nilang mauna e di mauna na sila. Remember, we are racing for ourselves only… beating our Personal Record. Me, I’m happy and contented with my run yesterday, coz i made a new PR compared to my condura run. (17mins improved).

Actually, when we start to see the finishline, our mind was to make a sprint to reach them as fast as we can so hindi na maiiwasan na may maunahan tayo or may mauna sa atin. wala lang sikuhan. di ba? Let’s respect each other.

Affordable race, well organized, non-commercial and non-showbiz type event. Two thumbs up to Yakult Philippines!

The organizers announces that they have to re-route to 16K event to avoid congestion with the other run – Run Manilenyo, so the 16K is only 15.5K.

By the way re 16K results is incomplete I guess. Please check it out.

300 lang po ang number of runners sa race results. parang eto lang ata yung matitibay kasi yung mga katulad ko na more than 2 hours tumakbo e wala dun :(

kulang nga 1:38 ako, sa result hanggang 1:37 lang

Nice run for me, maghapon me natulog after the race…pagod!!!

@tekla mam kyo po ba yung nkacwx and nka adidas energy belt?

hi, just want to know, may certificate ba yung finishers ng 10 miler?

after I got the Yakult and the shirt, sa sobra excitement, di ko na naisip kung meron…

It was my 1st 10 mile run and did it in 1:48 :D

congratulations to all!!!

sayang di nadepensahan ni mr. quinsay. . .congrats ate bave. . lakas mo po :)

ganda ng result may pace time pa. .

thanks to Coach ronnel go. . sayang di ko nakuha target ko makapasok kahit top 20 :)

better luck next time. . .thanks sa yakult, go one :)good cold water and sponge. . refreshing

thanks for the post Pinoy fitness!!!

Congrats to all the 10 mile finishers…

Announcement was announced that the distance was cut short to 15.5 due to un avoidable merge from other races…in order to avoid that, they have to sacrifice some meters…nevertheless, great route parin

@pinoyfitness, ganun po ba talaga yung time na released sa 1st and 2nd ng female sa 5K? pareho sila ng time? Thanks

congrats to all runners!! yup the route was short (15.3kms) and quite boring but hydration was well provided kaya ok na rin.

aga ng results though kulang pa nga.

rate for this run: 7/10

short ng 500 meters pero PR pa din (kung simulated)!!!

@pinoyfitness: why is the the overall list posted for the 10miler stopped at 1:30 something? Where is the rest?

bka to follow pa yun…pls post the rest…tnx

@cecille 16k ka rin ba?

@jobz: yes dear, that’s why i’m excited to see my PR coz at the finish line, my PR improved really a lot. I hope yakult will post the rest of the list. Wait i have to tell you that after passing the finish line, i noticed 2 ladies, one was announcing the color,bib no. and finish time of the runner to the other, and the latter logging it down on her big notebook? Natawa nga ako coz i thought its being done manually, wala bang timing sensor sa start/finish line?

@cecille sino mga kasama mo? 16k din me, mga 1:45 cguro me kya sna ipost nila

2 lang kami ng officm8 ko coz the other one, his wife suddenly had a pregnancy issue kaya bigla siyang uwi. Congrats you’re a fast runner.

@jobz: my last post was addressed to you sorry!

San daw po nakapost race result lahat ng runners? Kahiya pang-girl ata time ko….1:40ish sa 16k. Dami nakalagpas na matatanda pa kesa saken considering na 40 pa lang ako. Eh yung iba mga 50 plus na siguro pero hataw pa rin sa takbuhan (kinatandaan na lang siguro nila ang pagtakbo kaya ganun pa din ang endurance nila, hehehe). congrats sa kanila at sa lahat ng finishers.

ok na po, pwede pala download results. hehe. tnx

@cecille sna mgkakakilala tyo dun, ako lng nga sumali mga kaopismate ko nsa luntirun…hayst boring mag isa…

Hindi na kasali mga nagclock ng 1:40 plus sa results. Bad naman. Sana lahat ng finishers. Panu naman kaming mga kulelat?

@ronron: you’re comment is amusing, hindi naman pang girl ang time mo. Anyway ang result list stopped at 1:30 something only, the rest is missing.

@jobz: if you’re working in makati, we regularly run at the ayala triangle. I can assure you we’re nice people, and you sound like a nice person. Feel mo mag-join, just tell me what would be your distinguishing mark and your gender, so i can easily recognize you. Normally we run late in the afternoon, around 4 or 4:30pm.

@cecille 5pm out ko, this wed nsa runnr academy ako, ngjoin b kyo dun? male po me, every tues my anr sa ayala tri, late n kc 7pm…

@ result 10 MILER lang??

@jobz: no, i didn’t join any running clinics kasi its either far or late na ang start, sayang nga ang ANR late na, it’s just right at back of our office, so i do my own self training. If given the chance sa group lang ni coach rio para walang mang-ookray at yayabangan ako ng ibang running students. Anyway hope to meet you in the next running event, maybe run for japan, to help our filipino kababayans and TNF CAMSUR.

@jaydee sori were just discussing nmn sa yakult e, un land d kc tyo mgkakakilala dto d b? sna my mga group meet rin tyo dito pra we can discuss ang ating mga experiences, thank you…

@jaydee sori sa wrong message…

@cecille when do u usually run in ayala tri?

@jobz. Waw RUNNR academy ka rin? :) Ill be attending the lecture series. Sayang di ako kasali sa group run. See you there :)

@mark yes kasali me dun, sa group nga pan 28 me, last week dun k b? 16k ka rin b?

The 10 Mile route was shortened due to the expected congestion under the Buendia flyover. We have to transfer the turn around point from under the Buendia flyover to the decending side of the Buendia flyover. We announced that the route would be more or less 15.5K

We submitted the complete race results of 738 finishers, but maybe the space allocated for our results is only for 300 finishers.

2nd run ko ung 16k. Una ko ung sa leg1 ng unilab last march 6. ang hirap pala heheh. namaltos ang paa ako. napasukan pa nang bato ung sapatos ko. muntik na akong sumuko. tas ung mga kenyan nakakaasar. sana nag-umpisa akong tumakbo nung bata-bata pa ako para nmn makapagcompete sa kanila ehehhe

Congratulation to all the finishers 16,5 and 3K :-). Kumpleto naba yung result kasi i didt see my name or my friends name hanggang 300 lang yung lumalabas?

Where can i join sunday morning runners?

hi.. me race result na ba ng ibang category aside from 16K? thanks…..

@jobz. haha.. uhm *clueless* haha aatend lang ako ng lectures. hindi ko kasi kinaya yung takbo part. medyo busy kasi last week sa congress, so yun haha. baka nga magcancel na ako altogether, since hahabulin ko yung Milo Clinic sa Abril.

what do u expect for a 300php reg fee? a timing chip?lolz…. we shld be thankful that it was well organized and theres enough hydration stations. :-)

ok nasa takbo ko paakyat ng buendia flyover kaso sinara ng nga tulog na marshal sa baba kami pinatabo nagulat na lang kami hinabol kami ng nakabike na marshal ,ayun sampa kami sa flyover na taas leeg namin , naging urbanathon un run namin sa yakult 10miles ..original ang run namin, kakaiba. pls lang kausapin nyu un nakabantay sa may buendia flyover..

Kaya pala mura lang ang bayad… :(

@chefrunner: i was also one of those na pinaakyat ng flyover hahaha but i indeed i enjoyed and had fun.

@Junggoy: yup mura cya pero atleast may mga marshals at madami water stations.

pasencya na maritess templado, ndi intensyon na banggain ka

mali ung result nmin ng mga kxma q s 5k.. nauna cla sakn but s result nauna q s knla.. bkt po gnon?… tnx…

confused din ako. my nephew and i started the race together and ended it together, pero sa results, mas mabilis pa sya sa akin ng 9 minutes? weird.

but all in all, it was fun. and very organized.

prang hindi tama ung sa 5K kc nag pedometer ako. What time nga ba ung gunstart ng 5K.. pass 11-12 mins na ata yung nsa timer nun?

@pinoyfitness: may race photos po ba? kung wala ok lang. mura naman yung race pero maganda pagkaka-organize. kudos to all finishers!

prang mali ung results.. kasi pass 11-12 mins na sa timer nung nag gunstart for 5K… ibabawas pa ba un? tska nka pedometer din po ako iba ung time. =D

good day, share with same sentiments with louize, nauna ako sa mga friends ko sa finish line but when i see the results nauna pa sila, i think around 10mins nadagdag sa time ko, what happened kaya? hopefully u resolve this problem kasi we are targeting pa naman to beat our own PRs, thanks.

tnx, nakita ko na results ko, hirap pla mg run ng d ngbreakfast, the night before grad ng cousin ko steak ang kinain nmin, tpos d na me kumain dhil late na kmi umuwi…next time kain na me hehehe!!!

Photos meron po ba?

@pinoyfitness: i just read your post right now, tnx for the list result update!

1st run ko ayos! haha.. Kelangan pa ng practice:D 5km for 30:07.. Do you think it’s enough to run 10km for around 55mins or below? thanks for the comments:D

you better practice bro :D keep it up, see you in the Hyundai Fun Run 10k :D

@ ivan: ayus yan! first 5k ko nga 1hr 4mins :) overweight kasi ako kaya ambagal ko tumakbo. kung 30mins first run mo, bibilis pa yan!

@ivan ok na yan next mo 10k, ganyan din me nun, gud luck sa next races…bka sali kmi sa run for japan…

@ivan: if thats ur 1st tym then thats a good PR. as long as u have enough training you can run 10k :-) congrats!

Kudos to Yakult!

Please call 7279987 for your certificates. Likewise we will review the 5K results. We will try to request pinoyfitness if they can accomdate some photos. Thank you all for your nice comments. We will try to address some of your concerns next time. More power to all!

thanks a lot to Yakult and to Mr. Rudy Biscocho

yes! congrats to mr. biscocho and the rest of the yakult team for organizing this run! :D this is my first 16k and it was wonderful! sana lahat ng run ganito, organized and affordable. my communication pa with the organizers – di tulad ng iba, pagkatapos ng run, di ka na papansinin ng mga organizers…sana nga lang sa marathon natin makuha unang gold ng PHL sa olympics

talked a while ago to Mr. Biscocho regarding the certificate. Again thanks a lot to Yakult and to the race organizers. You did great! Hope there will be more runs that are well-organized yet budget-friendly.

@reydor how can we get our certificates? tnx

thank you Mr. Biscocho! :)

ang saya ng Yakult 10-miler, eto yung klase ng run na tinatakbuhan ng mga magulang pa natin noon. its a simple, no-frills run but they’ve covered the basics: may marshals, water station at record ng time. walang photovendo, party at the finish line because its all about the simple joy of running! dami pating mga beteranong runners, i can only just imagine that they’ve been racing with yakult for decades.

sana, tumagal pa kayo ng another 22 years and more! :)

@kembot pace: i so agree with you :-) Reg fee was worth it cant say anything but good job and thank you we did had fun :-)

@ Sir Rudy: Thanks a lot for taking note of our comments, my bib no. is 2291 with 38:10mins, my estimate time po sana is between 28-30 mins. But honestly I enjoyed the run last Sunday, hopefully you’ll organize another run before the year ends. God bless!
