2 Races, 1 Sunday


On Sunday 11 October runners in Cebu can choose whether to run in the north or south.

After the success of last year's Run 2 the Max, Holiday Gym and Spa will hold another ten miler to mark HGS's 4th year anniversary.

Registration is at the HGS in Banilad, Cebu City or at the PSC Office at the Cebu City Sports Center or at Casa Ilonga at Robinsons Place Cebu. Last day of registration will be on Thursday.

The race will use the same route as last year. This race is directed by very good friend and running guru Mr. Raffy Uytiepo.








For runners coming from the South, there's a race that's closer to home -- the Congressman Gullas Fun Run.

There's a 1K race exclusive for senior citizens of Talisay City and open categories for 3K, 5K and 10K


The registration fee for the Gullas Fun Run is pegged at P150.00.



Race Starts at 5:30 in the morning at the Talisay City Hall (please see photo). For those who don't know where it is, just drive through the South Coastal Road. Before you reach the Minglanilla exit, you should see the huge Talisay City Hall to your left.


Good luck to all the runners! Be safe on the road.

They gave me a letter regarding the race, but they did not include registration venues. They probably accept registration at the Talisay City Hall.

HGS run 2 the max is by far the worst run organized, no clock, late start to give way to a lame show, few water stations, unfriendly marshals (whatever), and finally what's with the numbers, and why are they posting it? ahh... wall of fame for the fast one's and wall of shame to the turtle pace, what is this TOP GEAR? LMAO.

In fairness if it's true the money is going for the ondoy victims I forgive them, and the singlet is good by the way, no nipple chaffing.

Hello Anon!

I only ran 6K at the HGS Run to the Max. I heard the same complaints from those who ran 16K.

They really should have started at 5AM. Many runners got dehydrated because of the heat and the water stations that were too few and far between.

Noy Jopson, who is usually very cool and amiable was in a really foul mood after he reached the finish line because of the lack of water stations. So it was really that bad.

In fairness, they gave portion to the Ondoy Victims, I just don't know how much.
