King of the Road

I was a bit weary about this race. I initially wanted to join the 16.8 k distance like I did the previous year. However, I was planning a bit of rest after back to back half marathons the past two Sundays (Run United 3 and Rexona Run). Besides, there wasn't really anything  significantly different from the other two race distances with the 16.8k. I then went for the 10k category this time.

What's good about this race is the organizer (Proactive) made a lot of things easier. First, we no longer have to register online and pay via credit card. Second,  there was a pre registration (which will ship the race gear) and in store registration which eliminates the procedure of claiming it in an event like last year. Third was finally having an option to choose singlet color which means no more "We only get what's available brouhaha".

Bow Down to the King!

Just finished the 16.8k distance of KOTR yesterday (I did not use the singlet because I did not like the color). I finally got my 12 medal goal for the year. But since there's still more than 2 months left, I signed for 3 more races (2 of them half Marathons).

The good points of the race

-Hydration
-Marshalls
-Route
- UP Cheerios

The bad points of the race

-Initial offer of credit card / online transaction exclusive payment
-Inability to Select preffered Singlet color (Dumb Move)

October Runs

Finally picked up my KOTR Gear last week. I might be wearing another singlet because orange isn't my color. On the other hand, I also registered for the Adobo Run on the 29th for my first ever night run. Have to train for the top 500 slots.
