I was there last Sunday at the Rogin-E Last Man Running Marathon not to run but to make sure that the runners were hydrated. I was at station 5 located at Bayanihan Rd. near Heritage Park.
A misfortune happened minutes before the race started. One of the tables suddenly fell down with the gallons of water that made a total mess of our area. And we have to move and set everything again.
At approximately 5am the race started.
The event has 3 categories: 5K, 10K and the Last Man Running.
For the LMR (Last Man Running) category, a P50,000 prize was waiting for the sole winner. What made this race different was that the runners had to maintain a pace. A pace runner was there to serve as their guide. Failure to meet that requirement, meant elimination from the race.
The runners for the LMR category run for 7 hours! I was truly amazed with that display of physical endurance under the scorching heat of the sun.
Out of 52 who joined the LMR, 8 made it through until 11am. Two of which were actually gorgeous women.
