QCIM - Part 3


Takbo.ph was ably represented at the QCIM through husband and wife running team Jinoe and Queenie. I believe Jinoe did a 21K while Queenie did a 10K.


Dante Briones finally ran his first 21K. He's been training with the Runnex Group at U.P. and we, his friends, are very proud that he finally made the plunge. Now, he's training for his first 42K in 2010!! Good luck Dante!

Hector Yuzon of Second Wind with a strong finish for his 42K!


Dindo, a.k.a. runningDATCom!! Almost didn't recognize him without his familiar and signature headband!!


Another running couple Vener (Run Unltd.) and Christy nearing the finish line together!!!


The Banana Runner in her banana-yellow shirt with another 42K up her sleeve!!

Jaymie, a.k.a. The Bull Runner, with a good 42K showing! I'm happy she's in green!! :-)


Ed Francisco did a good run also on his 2nd 42K. Was able to catch him as he sprinted towards the Finish Line, all smiles. He then came back to join me and Dave to wait for the rest of the gang.
Ting Joson was all smiles upon seeing us near the Finish Line -- this is her first 42K attempt and looks like she's ready for more. Congrats Ting!



Hector went back a number of times to shepherd his wards from Team Tri-Polar. Here's Laarnie with her strong finishing kick on the 42K.

Last, but not the least, is Bobby Go -- one of Dave's pacers. Bobby is New York bound for the NY Marathon and this was his LSD. Dave was actually concerned that Bobby was running a really slow pace as a pacer but he was there to finish his training and to help support all the members of Team Tri-Polar. You can still see him wearing his Pacers' Balloon!!

Congratulations again to all the runners and finishers!!! I'm filled with envy but I'm glad I was there to capture the moments.

Wow! Great pictures, Johnny. And I thought, ako lang ang nahinto sa pagtakbo--ikaw din pala.

I'm still in rehab (details in my blog) but slowly running again. Kaso, 5k lang muna. Ang layo layo na ng agwat natin. 21k ka na, balik 5k pa ako. Anyway, good luck in your training. Hope to see you again in future races. Take care, Johnny.
