The North Face Trail Challenge in Sacobia, Pampanga – Day 1...

May 23, 2009 Sacobia, Pampanga Clearwater Resort in Sacobia, Pampanga     We arrived in Sacobia, Pampanga on Saturday, May 23, 2009, a little after lunch and went straight to Clearwater Resort where we reserved for a tent good for four people.   Clearwater Resort in Sacobia, Pampanga | Tent T-104   After unpacking, we walked about 500 meters to the jump-off area in Expo Filipino Parking Lot and checked out the place, as well as waited for Kuya Isko Lapira and his friends to arrive at the base camp from their first 50k.   North Face Sacobia, Pampanga | Start / Finish Line The clouds seemed perfectly placed high up in the clear blue sky, just before it hit. My brother, Bolt: North Face Sacobia, Pampanga | The Calm Before The Storm Unfortunately, we didn’t bring a waterproof camera or else we would have been able to take a footage of it. Just took pictures and a video of how it looked after the storm!   North Face Sacobia After The Storm in Expo Filipino Parking Lot 2 | May 23, 2009 We moved away from the tents to try and look for Kuya Isko, a short distance from the wrecked Start/Finish Line, as he had texted earlier that they were already near. Picture of him holding the Gardenia and Adobo we brought him. Haha! Kuya Isko’s return to base camp in The North Face Sacobia, Pampanga after the 50K distance covered. The rain has just subsided, and this is me wondering if the 10k trail is gonna be as muddy as the North Face Trail Running Event I participated in Talamitam, Batangas last year… “How’s It Gonna Be?” looping around in my head 😀 Some pictures of how the jump off area...
