"Good health, peace of mind, being outdoors, camaraderie - those are all wonderful things that come to you when running. But for me, the real pull of running - the proverbial icing on the cake - has always been racing." -Bill Rodgers #IM703Cebu #teamgotta #adidasph #nuun #2xu #rudyprojectph

As a first-timer, i am humbled and honored to stand amongst "true" and dedicated athletes who already are experts in this sport. Much respect to all who have embraced this difficult commitment of bringing one's fitness to a different level. Thank you for the inspiration! Tomorrow, as i do the bike leg of the relay division, i will celebrate this gift and stick to the plan of finishing strong, safe, and happy. Good luck to all the racers of the Ironman 70.3 Philippines Asia-Pacific Championship. #teamgotta @rudyprojectph @adidasph @2xu_philippines @garmincenter @aquasphereph @amoritaresortbohol @nuunphilippines #KaratWorld #IslandCove #xurpas #im703cebu #coachigemademedoit
