Tried another route around Talisay City

I tried another running route for a Good Friday run

For my Good Friday run last week, I tried another route around Talisay City for the last day of my couch-to-5k 4th week run. This time, I followed the road from our house to the old church then tracing Garces St. until SRP and back home. Total, around 6.75 KM.

It’s a pleasant route passing through the city’s old quarter that I have passed through ever since I was a child but haven’t gone back since a few years ago. From Dumlog, there’s still the grove of mango trees now huge with fruits wrapped in paper. Old 50′s/60′s houses that still stand proud along this street to the renovated spanish colonial era church that was much better to look at before.

Actually, my original plan was to follow Rabaya St. after the bend near San Roque cemetery but I didn’t check the map well and thus followed Garces St. all the way to SRP. That made it longer.
