00:00Welcome to the National Anthem of the National Anthem.
00:54On the island and around it, we already were very fortunate to see a lot.
00:59I went down to the whale sharks, of course, Cebu City, Lapo-Lapo City, you have beautiful beaches, but Bohol,
01:06I've been to Bohol, to the chocolate hills, of course.
01:09But to be honest, what makes Cebu and the Philippines that special in the world are the people.
01:16I've never been anywhere where people have been so nice, so I always enjoy coming back and to see everybody
01:23again.
01:23And it's also great to see so many skaters here today who already were there the first time three years
01:29ago.
01:30So it's a place to be, and I hope it's a future destination where many more tourists will come, and
01:37I'm quite sure that this happens.
02:08All over the world are invited for the virtual inline skating marathon, and it's going to be, there's a different
02:17mechanic, right?
02:18Actually, Andre here started already for the virtual, right?

02:25Yes, of course.
02:26Yes, of course.
02:27It was pretty amazing.
02:28I had, like, at the beginning of October, I did the half marathon, the virtual half marathon.
02:33It worked really quite good, and I did it back home in Vienna, and it was a great experience I
02:40did with some two other friends.
02:42Actually, we, the deadline for registration is until September 30, and we were overwhelmed.
02:51We received a lot of requests to open again the registration, but we sincerely apologize because, as you can see,
02:58we pre-ordered the medals and the shirts.
03:01The medals, by the way, we really traveled, my husband and I, Charles, traveled to Shenzhen to order the medals.
03:10So these are very special for us.
03:12So it was, it is limited, limited edition, so we do apologize that we cannot extend the number of registrants.
03:22So as of the moment, we have 1,200, 1,200 runners, both for 5KM and 10KM.
03:31For the skating, we have 55, 55, 58, sorry, 58 skaters.
03:41So it's going to be fun, and because it's the first time, and we thank Matthias here and Andre for
03:48coordinating, and of course, organizing from Austria.
