BAGUIO CITY — Hernanie Sore and former Milo Marathon queen Cristabel Martes served notice of their respective title aspirations by dominating the opening leg of the 36th National Milo Marathon yesterday here.
The 30-year-old Sore clocked one hour, 14 minutes and 59 seconds as he ruled the highly-demanding 21-kilometer route of uphill and downhill course in the men’s category, while the ageless 32-year-old Martes finished with a clocking of 1:34:46 to top the women’s side.
According to Martes, she has been joining running clinics to prepare for the 36th Milo Marathon, hoping to reach the national finals. Sore on the other hand had been conditioning himself for the 42-kilometer distance run. “I didn’t really train for the 21-kilometer distance run,” said Sore. “I am surprised that I won first place in this category. I will continue to condition myself for the Manila elimination leg at the end of this month.”
Cesar Lastaneto Jr. was a close second with a time of 1:15:03 followed by Marson Tarcelo with 1:20:18. In the distaff side, Mercy Taypok of University of Baguio finished second in 1:38:30 while Gretchen Felipe followed with 1:49:32 clocking.
