Dublin Marathon Run for GK Roundup

Dublin Marathon is fast approaching. Training has been done. Dublin accommodation statistics has been done.
We are still in the process of raising funds. Our collective effort, we have raised 2,200 euros and counting. All set for
Oct 27, 2008 - Dublin Marathon.

The Training
I started training 14 weeks ago. Running three to five days a week. Doing long runs on Saturdays starting from 6 miles to 18 miles. After 9 weeks, i experienced chestpains(costochondritis) so i was not able to continue training for the long runs of 20-22 miles. In order to maintain the fitness level, i did some cross training - swimming. All is well now and I am hoping to have a good run on Oct 27.

The Eager Participants
There are a good number of people who went out of their way to support the cause of GK. They will be doing the fun run/walk on Oct 27.
Here are the list:
1) Elvira Custodio
2) Evangeline Pena
3) Ronald Belzena
4) Caryl Camina
5) April Ramos
6) Princes Paglinawan
7) Evanthony Paglinawan
8) Claudette Causapin

Thank you to Brother Ritche and Brother Bimbo and family for letting us know that in our small way we can help our country.Brother Ritche & Brother Bimbo will be participating in the fun run too.

The Hosts
We will be hosted by the CFC members in Dublin on Sunday night. We will have a nice pasta dinner together with our hosts. All these are possible because of the unwavering support of Brother Dodong and the CFC of Dublin.

GOD Speed.
