REGISTRATION AND ORIENTATION
With the start of the race in tow, new teams were organized while the rest were ready for action. The yellow team wore yellow, the black wore blue, and the red wore white!
Tdoms opened the activity with a prayer and Super Ando started the orientation.
While waiting for Cliff, Ronironz and Nenoy (yea, i'm singling you guys out hahaha), participants were led to a little warm up exercise by the working team!
STARTING LINE AT THE REDEMPTORIST CHURCH
As the church's patroness, the Mother of Perpetual Help was certainly keeping a close eye on the participants. Everyone was safe, everyone had a fun time, and even the weather was cooperative.
The start of the race was held on the church grounds and all teams had no idea where to do next...
As the teams rushed off to their team bags, once opened, they found a clue pack for the next pitstop, a trivia about the Mother of Perpetual Help, 10 candles, P32.50.
The clue points out to Sto. Rosario... Our Lady of the Holy Rosary's Parish located beside Cebu's oldest university!
FIRST STOP...STO. ROSARIO
The team's first task was to sell the candles provided to buy 5 roses which they would then offer to the shrines of the churches they would be visiting. Some had it easy selling the candles, the others were turned down a couple of times to finally get the right amount of money to buy the roses...
The CLUE:
In the city, go and see,
Cebu’s oldest university...
One Rose you must offer
In the church grotto near the corner...
But first you must vend
These ten candles we sent...
So money you can raise
For five roses must you purchase...
The remaining four you just hold
For the next clue will unfold!!!
SECOND STOP...LOURDES PARISH CHURCH
The teams were to find 2 rosary packs according to team color. They needed to make 2 rosaries according to specs given. As the teams spent an hour finding the rosary packs, they ended up helping each other through trading and negotiation...
The CLUE:
To Labangon off you go
Our Lady of Lourdes will show
Some rosary beads you must find
But the team color you should mind
Two rosaries will be
What you make of thee
A rose in the shrine
And Clue 3, can be thine
THIRD STOP...GUADALUPE CHURCH
From Labangon, teams had to find the quickest way to go to Guadalupe. Some teams took 3 jeepney rides, but two lucky teams - the green and black teams - chartered one jeepney going straight to the next pitstop. This bumped them so far ahead of the rest!
In Guadalupe, teams were to answer a number of the math problems given which has different levels of difficulty. They receive puzzle pieces according to problems answered correctly. Once they've successfully completed the puzzle (which forms a black and white pic of Our Lady of Guadalupe), they may then proceed to offer a rose to the shrine.
Provided on this leg was a water station and lunch packs.
The CLUE:
Roses are red, violets are blue,
Rose #3 - I give to you.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, full of grace,
We visit you in this Amazing G-Race.
Form the puzzle-picture,
As you go on this math adventure.
One puzzle piece you can get,
If you solve one problem set.
Food and box you must carry,
For the next Clue you must hurry…
FOURTH STOP...ASILO DELA MILAGROSA
Running, walking, riding, or singing (Blue Team) their way to the 4th leg of the race, the teams brought their bundles of joy to the Orphanage at Asilo. As they met, greeted, and sang with the orphans, they were taken by a surprise new to the G.Race... the detour.
A detour is a choice between two tasks - each with it's pros and cons ;p
--- math nasad?! dili ui, numbers puzzle ra ni ---
The teams may decide to answer 3 simple sudoku puzzles or may choose for each team member to shoot basketballs from the half court line.
The Green team decided to do the sudoku while the rest were sure they've got game.
The CLUE:
Our blessings we share,
With the kids in Asilo, for we care.
Take a group picture at the reception
The Asilo staff is no exemption.
To complete either one task,
Is all that we ask.
The first challenge is to complete,
The Sudoku puzzle feat.
Or if the team does not want this,
Shoot 5 basketballs, hope you don’t miss.
Rose #4 you should leave,
For Mama Mary, in whom we believe…
MT. VIEW...CHILL OUT
One team member acts as a blindfolded pourer, he will pour cold water on team mates as they sit on chairs provided holding cups above their head, all cups must be filled to the brim!!!
MT VIEW...SPIDERWEB MAZE
Teams follow through a maze of straw ropes and answer trivia questions in each post. This is where the trivia cards given on each stop comes in very handy!
The CLUE:
The trivia you must answer
The faster you are, the better...
So you can go through
The maze made for you.
Next, go up the hill,
But must have the will...
To reach the end
That’s round the bend!!!
FOOD DARE
THE FINISH LINE...TO JESUS THROUGH MARY!!!
