BREAK your personal records.
The Hunat Sugbu 6: Dagan Para Ni Maning encourages the runners to chase a personal best time on June 26 at the Terraces, Ayala Center Cebu.
The sixth edition of the run carries the theme “Dare to break your record” as a motivation to the runners to try and better their previous running times.
“Every year, we create a new topic for the run, and for this year we will be encouraging the runners to break their own personal records,” said the general manager of Cebu Parklane International Hotel, Cenelyn Manguilimotan, on a press conference yesterday.
The run features the men’s and women’s 21-kilometer, 12K, 6K and 3K. All the categories will have the same route from last year.
Manguilimotan said that they did not change for this year, so the runners can gauge their improvement from last year using the same route.
One of the additions this year will be the festive happenings on the water stations which will be manned by different departments of Parklane International Hotel.
“We will have a departmental contest in our company on who will have the best water stations. We did this to address the concern about waters stations last year,” said Manguilimotan.
The chairman of Hunat Sugbu 6 Nick Nacorda said they are eyeing on the same number as last year which is around 2,500 participants.
The number of participants have been growin each year since it started in 2011, when they held the race in honor of Manuel Ting.
Race director Joel Baring of Sports and Fitness Enthusiasts (Safe) said that a total of P75,000 cash prizes will be at stake for all the winners. Aside from cash prizes, the winners will also get a loot bag from Flanax.
The 21K and 12K finishers will each get a medal.
The proceeds of the run will still go to the medical mission with Jesu Christi Community. Manguilimotan said that every year the medical mission has assisted two to three thousand patients.
Registration fee is at P750 for 21K, P650 for 12K, P550 for 6K and P450 for 3K.
Registration is now ongoing at the Parklane Hotel Lobby on Mondays and Saturdays and at Cebu City Sports Center.
