BDH Race For Good Health
BDH is Butuan Doctors' Hospital, one of the premier tertiary hospitals in Butuan. They celebrated its foundation day last October 9. As part of the festivities they included a fun run for health that happened last October 4 in the early morn. Which means I wasn't there to catch a firsthand glimpse of the activity.
They had a 3 kilometer and 5 kilometer race. A turnout of approximately 1000 participants. The route was from BDC open grounds(Butuan Doctors' College, my alma mater ;P) to Jose Rizal Plaza going through the main road of JC Aquino Avenue.
There was an awarding ceremony post fun run. There was a top ten finishers for each event with special prizes for the youngest kiddie finisher, senior runners and top 3 lady racers.
