Rescued by Running

In most races, a sudden slowdown happens at the area where there is a hill, but the venue itself (the whole race course) was a collection of deep hills?

Last January 31, Greentennial race organizers presented "Rescue Run for Sendong" an event held in mckinley hills organized in just 9 days.  

It was only my second time at Mckinley hills. The first one was part of a 16k route for the 2011 takbo.ph runfest. Back then, having ran by 10 km already, It was hard doing 1 loop around the area. But now we had to do 2 loops.

Rescue Run (Race for Sendong)

This is the Last and probably the most significant race of the year 2011! Greentennial Run is hosting a RESCUE RUN! A community race for Sendong Victims on December 31, 2011!
