Cebu City Marathon rules and regulations released
Organizers of the Cebu City Marathon have released the rules and regulations on the event, which is just 5 days away.
Among the rules in this Sunday’s event is the prohibition on wheeled vehicles from the race route. Organizer John Pages said in his Sun.Star Cebu column that “the reason for this is simple: Safety. We want to provide runners with as wide a space as possible to run without having to step aside because of a speeding car.”
Pages advised support crew of runners to just station themselves on certain points of the route.

“What was in those beans?” I chuckled to myself on my first pass by the Cansaga Bay Bridge on my way to Liloan early this morning. John Pages, the person responsible for my addiction to running, sent me a coffee brewing set because he wanted me to try preparing one using a French Press. I

Think again. On Feb. 9, 2009, I couldn’t run one kilometer. On Feb. 9, 2010, I ran 34.34 kilometers to celebrate my 34th birthday. I did it barely two days after running a grueling 21.7-kilometer Condura Run that passed a steep mountain called Skyway in Metro Manila. The idea to run one kilometer for each

Jinoe,
Yes, passing through the two Mandaue-Mactan bridges would have been awesome but the SRP route is also beautiful, albeit hot because of the lack of shade.
That’s great! We might bump into each other during the event
