CEBU, Philippines - It's going to be a loaded weekend for runners here in Cebu with several events set to take place.

This event is actually a two-part event with this Sunday's action featuring a run, walk and wheel-chair action while the second part set November 30 will have the 5 and 10-kilometer runs.

A fun run in celebration of the diabetes month is also posted in several running sites earlier, but the venue had not been finalized still as off this writing.
