37 Runs, 31 Medals, and 5 Trophies Conclude Runner Rocky's Marathons for 2015!


2015 was truly my year of running, fitness, and marathons. It was indeed Runner Rocky's best year of running so far.

I've started my passion in running last April of 2014. But after a year, my career in marathons boomed! In 2015, I have joined 37 overall runs and got total medals of 31 with 5 trophies!

Of these 37 runs, 3 of them were ultramarathons namely the 50K Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Day Ultramarathon, the 120K Bonifacio Day Ultramarathon, and the 50K Rizal to Rizal (Rizal Day) Ultramarathon while 4 of them were obstacle races namely the Urban Guerilla Race, the SynchRUNize, the Guerilla Race (Leg 2), and the Men's Health Urbanathlon Survival of the Fittest.

The first ever cool fun runs in the country were also part of my list of runs for the year. These were the DC All-Star Superheroes Fun Run wherein we ran wearing a superhero costume (in my case I was Superman) and The Music Run wherein there was music of different genres all throughout the run. And of course, I'm proud that I have completed the Run United Trilogy (RU1, RU2, and RUPM)!

Check out my solo photos each of the 37 runs I have conquered in 2015:

Aside from running as a superhero, I also ran for a hero via my first ever Condura Skyway Marathon: Run for a Hero. I even paid back being a former DOST scholar and NECFI scholar wayback in college via running in The 4TH AmCham ScholaRUN, Ateneo Run for your Life 2, and DOST's Run 4 Health Research.   

Two runs were also dedicated for our mother earth via Pro Earth Run and NatGeo Earth Day Run. And of course, I've paid tribute to our national hero Dr. Jose Rizal, to our Bayani ng Katipunan Gat Andres Bonifacio, and to our nationalist Senator Benigno "Nino" Aquino Jr. via my three very first ultramarathons outside the Metro.

37 Runs, 31 Medals, and 5 Trophies...that conclude Runner Rocky's passion for runs and marathons in 2015. Let the passion continues this 2016! (Runner Rocky)
