As promised, the first 5 to email receive 2 race kits to Run BGC with the distance of their choice.  And the winners are…

1) Rikki Suarez: I LOVE TO RUN IN BGC because the total environment is very conducive to urban running – wide roads, great sceneries, good architectural and civil planning of the area which makes it a very great running location here in congested urban metro.
