Filipino Marathon Slow Runner Solo Joiner 10-Aug-2025 Sunday in Manila, Philippines
This Fun Run served as my 2nd participation in the Manila Marathon, which started only in 2024. my official Ninth FULL-MARATHON 42.2KM and Eighth Road Marathon as a Solo Joiner, following the Nueva Ecija Marathon last July 2025. My main objective is just to finish the race (beating my previous PR is optional), I want to enjoy the run at my own pace.

Route difficulty: Same route as last year but this time zero rain throughout the race. I felt discomfort/pains, especially in my stomach, legs and feet. Awesome scenic route, good for beginners. Mostly flat, uphill/downhill are the 4 bridges of Roxas Boulevard, Jones Bridge and Intra-Binondo Bridge.
Remarks (My rating: 10 of 10 stars): (1) Well-organized, started on time. Lots of refreshments in the water stops. (2) Free professional photos with watermark. (3) Registration fee is somehow reasonable (4) New section in race village like Recovery area for 42km runners only (Free Ice bath, SanMig can drinks and PT acupuncture session) (5) Huge race village divided to 2 sections since there were 19,000 runners
If given the chance, would I like to join this race again? Somehow Yes (maybe because I'm tired)

42KM 2025 MANILA MARATHON 9x Full Marathon Finisher Slow Runner 😁
My 2nd participation in Manila Marathon on its 2nd year. Reached the finish line with total altitude gain of 110m despite being unwell (headache, stomach cramps and leg pain). 82 hours recovery time. Awesome weather.
First time ko magpahid ng Katinko ng ilang beses, dami na talaga signs of aging. First time ko ding hindi naihi / nadumi during the run. Partida pa halos lahat ng Water Station kinuhaan ko ng at least 2 cups.
My will is strong but my knees were far too weak. Proud Slow Runner achievement.
