1. The 1st Condura Skyway Marathon
The Condura Run has gone further in the past three years from 10km, to 21km and now 42km! Come February 2010, witness the launching of the first full marathon dubbed as Condura Skyway Marathon and be one of its runners.
2. Run on the Skyway. New 3km and 5km Route
Condura is the first and the only run that goes through the Skyway for the half and full marathon. No traffic, no pollution, excellent roads; truly a runners’ wish come true. We also created a signature Condura race route for the 3km with kids and families safety in mind. No running through any major thoroughfares. No crossing major intersections. It will be a runner and spectator friendly course. After all, a big part of what makes a run special is the route.
3. 1 start and 2 finish lines. Exclusive route for 3km/5km and 10km, 21km and 42km
5km runners have their own exclusive running route and finish line. And the 10km, 21km, and 42km also have their own exclusive running route and finish line.

Hi Coach Salazar, thank you so much for dropping by. It's good that you left this comment. Am sure some of the organizers have seen or read this.
ReplyDeleteFilipino athletes deserved the best. Gold harvests in the recently concluded SEAG (especially, the marathon event) were a living testament to the much-improved performance of our athletes. But we still need to strive hard to go for excellence, of being No. 1.
However, EXCELLENCE means good facilities, enough funds to support athletes' needs, proper training, and following standards for selection of athletes to represent the country, etc. Filipinos are smart people but sometimes being smart posed great problems--too many leaders yet not many followers. If only all can sit down, plan, execute these plans very well, and sustain them--am sure EXCELLENCE is just around the corner.
Well, am no expert on this but just saying my two cents worth.
