No two humans are alike, and this can be confirmed by the looks of the runners reaching the finish line of Milo Eliminations – Cebu Leg. Each has their own “winning” finish-line looks!
So following are top “winning finish-line looks!!!”
Constipated Look
That one big push to relieve yourself.
Super Hero
Insert “I believe I can fly. I can believe I can touch the sky!”
Wag-your-tongue
Finally I can taste my victory!
Dreamy
Please pinch me! Have I really reach the finish line? Please tell me I’m not dreaming!
Malling
Or maybe beach-ing… Forget every thing except my sunnies.
Warrior
FREEEEEDDDDOOOMMMMM!!!
Yolanda, tama na!
I had fought a good fight!
May Himala
Am I witnessing an apparition?!
Let’s do Sign of the Cross to that!
The Tourists
The finish line is a tourist spot, we should have a picture of it.
So this is what a finish line looks like!
Hawak-Kamay
Di kita iiwan sa paglakbay…
This is a Race Bib?!?
The Triathlete
Cycling – check. Visor – check. Shades – check. Tri shoes – check. That perfect running form – check. Triathlon event singlet – check. Pouty lips – check. Knees high – check.
The Effortlessly Looking Good
Don’t hate me ‘coz I’m beautiful… after running 21K in 6min/KM.
I’m-Macho-I-Will-Not-Cry
Raise Your Hands
That first day of class your teacher checks for attendance, “Raise your hand if you’re present, students!”
“PRESENT, Ma’am!!!”
Teacher: Students, you can just raise one hand, okay!
Student: How about peace sign, teacher? Peaces!!!
Peace to everyone here in these photos! You are all amazing!
