Running Somewhere in Cebu City

Pastilan! Dili man ako makasabot ng Bisaya, gamay lang.
(I do not understand Bisaya, a bit maybe)

I had a very quick stop over at Cebu City from Surigao del Norte on board the Cokaliong Ship last May 20. So I arrived at Cebu Port, 6:00am (Thursday). I didn’t brought my running shoes this far just to sit there and relax while waiting for my flight to Manila. JourneyingJames must test all roads he steps onto.

After some puto maya (P5/serving) and local tsokolate (P5/cup) from the sidewalks, I’m off to run.
The problem is I don’t know where to run. 6:30am running is dehydrating if I do more than 3K. I run anyway, 3K only as I have to be back soon to catch my 10:30am flight back to Manila.

I don’t know where is this exactly, I just brought my camera and took some pics.
Pescadores Road
Sumilon Road
Road on which I run to
Signage says: South Road straight, Downtown left and Capitol turn right


I really don’t have any idea where I am, I just run. Running in new places. Running in Cebu! Do you happen to know where I run? I might give you a pack of coffee as prize.

Smoked fish, danggit, dried mangoes, Colegio de Sto.Nino, Magellan’s Cross on Local Tsokolate.

    you ran in Cebu Business Park where Ayala and Marriot are located. You even went to Mango Ave, now known as General Arcadio Maxillom Ave. Nice run, James!

    I want to get some free coffee man! So……out with it. You ran in Cebu right? Does that qualify? JK. Actually, Running is awesome when you go to new places. I like your 3k idea man, just to get your feet on some new road or trail. Love it. Hope you had a safe flight back to Manila.
