- Runner’s Interview: Patrick & Ton Concepcion
With the The Condura Run drawing near, it was imperative that I featured running brothers, Patrick and Ton Concepcion, the men behind what is expected to be one of the best races to ever hit Manila… When did you start running?

Her doctor advised her to get a massage after EVERY run and she swears [...]
