The over all top winners<br />
reaching for the core of were all Filipinos!<br />
stamina, the kind that Joen Dedeos Alcala<br />
comes from heart not finishing first overall<br />
with a stunning time<br />
muscle.<br />
of 4 hours, 43 minute,<br />
46 seconds, only one<br />
second ahead of second place. My hats off to the two top<br />

category: Filipina Celma Hitalia finishing in 6 hours and 24<br />
minutes and German Michael Klose at 5 hours 46 minutes.<br />
There were seven contestants in the 60 and up class, 4<br />
finished.<br />

A grand day it was, racers literally from six to sixty all giving<br />
beyond their capacity reaching for the core of stamina, the<br />
kind that comes from heart not muscle.
