Takbo.ph Runfest: Thank you (Part 2)

Takbo.ph was created with the idea of building a community of runners.  Thus with the Runfest, we tapped the community of runners to help make the event a success.

Thank you to all the VOLUNTEERS who made the event extra special.  Your smiles and words of encouragements to the runners made the event a success FROM START to FINISH.  I knew I can count on you.

By just reading the feedback and the remarks about the event at Facebook and at the Forums, the word volunteers always stands out. And like to give them the credits in this post.

Thanks to Sir Amado aka Reinier6666 and Reinier Pacific International for providing us with the marching band to greet the runners once they are near the finish line.  Sorry kung hindi ka nakatakbo dahil dun.  😀  Read Sir Amado’s account about the Runfest at Reinier6666 Blog.

Oh Diva!

Thanks to Craig of Team Logan for leading the prayer.  That was surely powerful.  It held the strong rain for several hours.  Just in time after we were able to pack up and leave the event area.

Thanks to Rodel aka Argonaut for being our co-host.  That was another great performance.  May more of your “scandal” pics be in the internet.

Thank you to the Alabang Runners for the special dance number.  Na-challenge ako a.  I should have my own dance number next year, noh?

Thanks to Gail for setting up the video feed of the finish area.  I’m still thinking how to upload it at the website.  That’s more than 2 hours of data!

And to my partners at LEADPACK, Doc Lyndon and Ian, thanks for working with me in this memorable event.  Next year uli.

Until next year, Let’s celebrate running.
