After Bagiuo, azkals are back here in manila to continue their training. They also joined in the celebration of 25th Edsa Anniversary Fun Run yesterday Feb. 27 (Sunday).
Baguio (1,500 m or 4,921 ft) was set for a high-altitude altitude training and to acclimatized as well. Mongolia is at 1,350 m (4,429 ft) above sea level. High-altitude has effect on humans specially on thier performance. There is a reduction in oxygen in high altitudes area which generally reduces the athlete's performance.
