With almost 50,000 participating runners and an even bigger number of almost 3 million spectators from around the globe, the ING New York City Marathon has proven to be one of the biggest, if not, the most celebrated marathon in the world. It’s a one-day sporting event that has become a well-anticipated tradition among sports enthusiasts and professional athletes alike since 1970. On November 3, 2013, the festive running event will return with Timex as its official timekeeper. And of course, with great pride, Timex Philippines is more than excited to cheer for its two official Filipino delegates: fitness couple Anthony and Maricel Pangilinan. Recently, in an intimate media send-off at Lorenzo’s Way in Taguig City, the Pangilinans, together with Coach Rio dela Cruz (who would have to give up his slot to attend to his wife) gamely shared fondest stories on different marathons they have participated in. Coach Rio, and Anthony, who are no strangers to the New York marathon, talked about firsthand recollections on what the big sporting event was like. Armed and ready, the Pangilinans are set to wave the Filipino flag as they are geared to join the grand festive event of the running world.
