Shooting the Rexona Run 2010 at the MOA

I didn’t sign up for RunRio’s Rexona Run which was held early this morning at the Mall of Asia. Nah, as much as I want to after a week of having joined the Takbo.ph anniversary run at 10K. Instead, I opted to shoot the race. I just missed rising in the morning with my camera gear. Looking at the viewfinder and clicking on the shutter button as runners pass. I was positioned at front-right of SM MOA and later transferred near the finish line.

I did see some familiar faces including three runners from Smart, the Running Shield and Ken from Cebu who surprised me when he called out.

Here are some of the shots I took.

There were really many runners in this race, attesting to the popularity of the sport in the metropolis
