Race #16: Rebuilding Davao

Race #16
Run to Rebuild

Abreeza Mall Parking Area

Some few days ago, parts of Davao were flooded due to heavy rains and rising river waters. This caused devastation for several communities near the Davao river, specifically in Matina Pangi. This run is organized by those who want to help contribute to the relief efforts to help rebuild the communities of those who are affected. For paying Php 100, you get no singlet, no fancy race hooplas, no cash prizes (for those who plan to compete), just a race bib and the thought of giving a helping hand to those who are in need right now.

Joining this race was just me trying to help those in need in what little ways I can. No competitive spirit here (I can save that for another time), just run for exercise, run for a cause. Oh, a big applause to the organizers and Abreeza Mall for doing what they can to help Dabawenyos in their time of need.
