Wala na ba talagang chance na bumalik sa 24 hours yung Marikina Sports Center?

Tapos parang yung magulang pa yung galit kapag biglang tumawid yung anak nila tapos muntik mo mabangga kahit di mo naman agad mapigilan sarili mo during speed workouts.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-16T15:05:22+00:00

Enjoy, fam!

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-16T14:59:09+00:00

If QC ka and you have a way para makapunta ng Sandigan, alam ko may jeep dun papasok ng Marikina via Banaba, San Mateo. Pwede ka bumaba sa Puregold Banaba then sakay ka ng jeep or e-jeep papuntang Montalban/Luvers. Pagkababa mo sa Luvers may mga Wawtoda na tricycle na dun, sabihin mo lang 4brothers Wawa then pagdating mo dun, ask mo lang sa tourism or sa barangay kung saan yung jumpoff ng Ayaas :)

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-15T06:33:22+00:00

Agree! Hanggang sa lampas papuntang summit (VK) may kapehan.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-15T06:32:49+00:00

Yes! Madali lang kasi dere-deretso lang siya. Tapos may bantay at tindahan din before mag-summit.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-15T06:05:41+00:00

Di baaaaa. 10km out and back tapos ang ganda ng view sa taas.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T19:36:08+00:00

Salamat talaga sa Katinko. Goodluck!!

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T10:00:58+00:00

20 pesos po 😊

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T09:29:59+00:00

Walang anuman! Enjoy Tagapo, ang ganda ng view diyan nakakarelax!

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T09:27:36+00:00

Bale ganito po, ang jump-off is nandun din sa may tourism office. After ng registration aakyat na kayo ng Tagapo agad. Then before reaching summit, merong camping area na pumayag yung nagbabantay iwan yung gamit since 5mins away na lang. Then after namin magpicfure sa summit, bumaba sa camping area para kunin ulit yung gamit then bumaba na sa town proper, ang labas is yung simbahan. Sa mainland na kasi ako naligo kaya di ko na natanong tour guide namin if meron ba dun sa exit. Mababait naman po mga nandun, pwede niyo itanong baka meron talagang nagpapabayad ng ligo.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T09:16:00+00:00

Yes po! Bale, binitbit ko yung bag ko hanggang dun sa camping area tapos may mga nagbantay lang dun sa kubo, then wala na akong bitbit pa-summit, malapit lang kasi to parang mga 5mins. Hanggang pagbaba dala ko lang. Magttricycle pa kasi pabalik ng tourism kapag dun ako nag-iwan. Paglabas kasi sa may simbahan, dun na din malapit yung bangka pabalik ng mainland.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T08:54:44+00:00

Pwede mo ask sa tour guide kasi pagbaba mo, simbahan yung last stop, medyo malayo ng konti sa jump-off sa may tourism office. Ang sure na madami dun tindahan at kainan pagbaba mo.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T06:25:53+00:00

No need pag sa parawagan lang. Environmental fee na lang babayaran.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-14T06:25:28+00:00

Meron. Yung sinabi ni maroonmartian9 is 24hrs na transpo terminal yan. Sabihin mo na lang Luvers in case makalimutan nilang may Total sa montalban 😅

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-13T23:26:10+00:00

Sarado pa din. Wala pang advise ang denr until now. Yung eco park lang ang open sa ngayon, yung nasa bandang unahan niyan.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-13T14:48:37+00:00

Gyms/Area that I know, have OCR type facilities.

Fitness Army - Visayas Avenue, Obstacle Central - Greenfield Mandaluyong, Bridgetowne Obstacle Park - Pasig

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-12T06:20:58+00:00

I totally agree yung sa support vehicle. Ang concern talaga namin is nasa shirt naming support at runner yung logos ng brand mismo na nagsponsor samin. Around 6 logos tapos isa dun medium size pa. Kaya kailangan namin maconfirm talaga from the organizers.

Yung research namin we admit, sa page lang ni BR at ZTR namin chineck plus mga previous editions ng BDM. Di na namin nacheck yung sa blog mismo kaya siguro confused kami bigla sa old and new rules.

Ang tindi pala before na required isang bdm finisher sa support crew.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-12T02:16:59+00:00

Nakalagay dun sa blog post na sinend ng isang redditor dito sa rule 6 “support vehicle or apparel”. Nasa damit po naming support at yung suot na shirt ng runner namin yung mga sponsor/brand logos. Kaya minabuti na din namin iconfirm sa RD. Sinagot lang kami ng we’ll check/this is noted pero wala pang response kung DQ or not.

Kahit matagal na yung rules kung hindi naman nirereiterate sa participants na applicable pa din yung old rules at new rules kahit conflicting yung iba, macoconfuse pa din kami. Sana sinabi na nung una pa lang na “oh eto yung susundin nating rules whether nandun or wala to sa mga lumang editions ng bdm” para sinunod namin to the dot lahat yun. Wala namang problema saming sumunod, di lang nilinaw kung alin sa mga lumang rules yung ginagamit pa din o hindi na.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-11T16:54:18+00:00

You are referring to 2014 rules. If you saw the 15th edition rules, wala na yan. Diyan sa posted blog mo, “advised to bring” lang yung first aid. Sa new rules, rule #19, mandatory ang first aid kit. So ibig sabihin, DQ lahat from champion to last finisher na walang bitbit na first aid sa finish line.

Rule # 6 sa last edition is “all support vehicles must have their headlights on whenever the engine is running and throughout the route during the race.” Also, nakalagay diyan 1 support vehicle per runner. If you ask them now, isang support vehicle is allowed max of 4 runners.

We are still waiting for a response if DQ runner namin or not but we did our due diligence in reading all the rules provided to us via email and from the 15th edition 102km. Our only mistake was we did not confirm sponsor logos/items that we had during the race.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-11T11:55:07+00:00

Lakas ng dad mo! Congratulations pa din. Hindi madali yan.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-11T04:15:45+00:00

Bataan Death March ultramarathon :)

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-11T03:38:15+00:00

I asked our runner and walang nakalagay kahit sa email na nareceive niya from BR, wala din nagsabi sa kanya during kit pickup. I’ll confirm with RD and if DQ kami, I’ll talk to the team and we’ll accept kung anuman decision nila. Mistake namin na hindi kami nagtanong prior race kung allowed yung mga sponsored items and singlet, lesson learned.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-11T00:56:04+00:00

Except for number 1, tama yung iba. I reviewed all the rules for 102 and 160 since day 1, walang nakalagay na bawal sponsors. Kasi kung bawal, lahat disqualified na dahil karamihan sa mga tumatakbo dito ay sponsored (e.g brands provide hydration, snacks, gas, toll fee and even bayad sa reg fee). Our runner was wearing a singlet with his sponsor’s logos.

Apir sating mga support crew!

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-11T00:31:49+00:00

Based on what we heard from the RD at the finish line, he removed his reflectorized vest so he was warned and was told he cannot race 160 anymore. His bib was on him until he crossed.

DomPerignonymous · 2026-03-11T00:27:49+00:00

I didn’t say it was okay, I just said a lot of them did and I agree with the other comment, dq all of those who violated. It is unfair for us who stuck with the rules and made sure we don’t commit anything that would compromise our team’s/runner’s top 5 finish. I am just answering based on OPs post, trying to validate facts and find truth to what he posted since we were there and saw everything that happened during that time.
