Running in Dumaguete City
Dumaguete City is nicknamed as The City of Gentle People. It is also referred to a university city because of the presence of four universities and a number of other colleges where students of the province converge to enroll for tertiary education. It is home to the famous Siliman University.
When in Dumaguete, you can run in the Siliman University Campus or on the The promenade along Rizal Avenue, facing the sea, with a view of Cebu and Siquijor Islands. Rizal Boulevard is enjoyed by people who likes to walk or jog right beside the ocean. The historic Rizal Boulevard is a popular tourist site as it is aligned with some hotels, coffee shops, side walk cafes and fine-dining restaurants.

We ran inside the Siliman University Campus, along the 700m stretch of Rizal Boulevard. We also passed by the plaza, Dumaguete Cathedral and the Dumaguete Belfry.
