Next runner for to get to know for the upcoming Pamutan Marathon 2017: Grace Ruperto. For those who love joining fun runs and other races, she’s a very familiar face. She can be best described with the following quote or poem:
I’m a Runner!
I run in the cold… I run in the heat
I run on the trails… I run on the street
Good days and bad days… I run through pain
Snow… Sleet… I even run in the train
Whether by myself of against the field
There is no option to stop or yield
You’ll understand if you are a runner too
It’s just something we runner must do
So if you aren’t a runner please understand
If you ask a runner they’ll just say
“That’s WHO I AM”
– RUNNING COMMUNITY
Now let’s take a peek what’s inside her mind in the following short Q&A:
What do you love about trail running or running in general?
I have been running for as long as I can remember. It is my basic form of exercise and my stress-reliever. Running is my passion such that it gives me strength and makes me tough. I have run in various races, road and trails. I have participated in short distance races to ultra races.
I love trail running because it makes me feel closer to nature. There is so much adventure in the trails and it’s never boring as nature keeps on changing the trails are changing as well. This is fun to me.
Trail running gear you cannot live without?
Aside from shoes, very important is hydration pack.
Your favorite trail running ground or favorite moment?
I did some trail running in Cebu, Negros Occidental and Mt Ugo. My favorite trail is in Salvador Benedicto, Negros Occidental.
