00:00 Meet Mang Joe, the 51-year-old who walked and ran more than 300 kilometers.
00:15 Mang Joe is a big guy, so he doesn't lag behind in physical sports.
00:26 He's also good at bodybuilding and dragon boat.
00:30 He was able to run the 2014 Long Distance Running Ultra Marathon.
00:38 I saw this on TV, I said I like this sport.
00:47 I joined the 24 Hours of Paati Bayan.
00:57 Mang Joe thought that this sport is good for people like him who have high blood.
01:05 My father's siblings have high blood.
01:09 The doctor told me that I need to exercise and not just rely on medicine.
01:17 I didn't have medicine to buy in December, so I said I really need to exercise.
01:21 But it's not just running.
01:25 I didn't think about it. I just wanted to do that sport.
01:30 When I did it, I realized that it's not just about running.
01:34 It's about stamina endurance.
01:39 But Mang Joe's test was the Endurance Challenge Philippines Ultra Marathon last year.
01:46 Wherein within 88 hours, they need to reach from Banawe to Luneta.
01:54 It's 216 miles or more than 340 kilometers.
01:59 Mang Joe is one of the 10 candidates for the challenge.
02:02 Stable and strong.
02:04 Mang Joe is a fighter.
02:08 But in the middle of the race, they were hit by a storm.
02:13 We ran until we reached Binueba, Vizcaya.
02:19 We waited for 3 days for the rain to stop.
02:24 Then the storm hit.
02:26 That's when my foot got a problem.
02:32 The rain was coming down from the mountains.
02:37 We were trying to get out of the rain.
02:39 My feet and my socks were wet.
02:42 From 10, 5 people gave up.
02:46 But Mang Joe is still running.
02:49 I will do my best.
02:51 I will do my best to run.
02:53 I will do my best to run.
02:55 I will do my best to run.
02:58 I will do my best to finish the race.
03:02 It lowers the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
03:09 It lowers the risk of diabetes, dementia, and obesity.
03:13 It lowers the risk of heart and skeletal muscles.
03:17 But the doctor said it's not a good idea to run too much.
03:23 Jogging is a high-impact exercise.
03:28 It can cause bone stress fracture.
03:32 Our bones in our knees are cracked.
03:34 It hurts and can lead to potential injuries.
03:38 But when it came to the second day of the race,
03:42 Mang Joe felt a sting in his feet.
03:46 He removed his shoes.
03:49 Then...
03:50 His feet were soaked, scratched, and injured.
04:15 The reason was the water on his feet.
04:19 Ouch.
04:21 Ouch.
04:23 It was only 7 km.
04:26 Assault.
04:27 I thought about what I could do.
04:30 I removed his shoes and washed them.
04:33 I thought about wrapping them in plastic.
04:36 My shoes were wet.
04:39 He was already half-dry.
04:40 The first thing I saw was a mistake in the way he wrapped his feet.
04:44 Plastic shoes don't have an absorptive capacity.
04:49 So, what happens is...
04:51 His feet will be soaked in sweat and water.
04:56 Because of the wet feet, we have a maceration process.
05:00 When our feet are soaked in water or moisture for a long time,
05:04 it becomes white and itches.
05:07 So, there's a higher tendency for foot wounds.
05:13 And for microbes to enter.
05:15 Because he was covered in sweat and his feet were injured,
05:18 and like Mang Joe, he was exposed to sweat,
05:22 it's possible for our patient to have leptospirosis.
05:27 At the same time, it can also enter microorganisms or bacteria.
05:32 To avoid the injury of your feet,
05:36 wear comfortable socks and shoes.
05:40 And elevate your feet after a long walk or even a run.
05:46 And for those who wear socks,
05:49 you can put petroleum jelly or added layer of protection
05:54 to prevent the socks.
05:58 He was told to clean it with water and iodine.
06:01 And the most important thing is...
06:03 Don't force yourself.
06:05 Let your body breathe.
06:07 If you can't breathe,
06:10 at the same time,
06:12 we have alternative exercises that we can do
06:17 to be active or physically fit.
06:20 Even though it's painful and his feet are injured,
06:24 Mang Joe continues to run.
06:26 And he didn't just reach the finish line,
06:28 he's in second place.
06:30 Bruised but not broken, you know.
06:33 While I was running, I was so tired.
06:35 I asked, "Lord, please give me more."
06:38 Sorry.
06:40 Sorry.
06:44 I was...
06:46 I didn't have...
06:49 I was strong if He didn't give me strength and energy.
06:54 And I talked to my angel.
06:57 I was able to overcome the pain.
07:00 I was able to feel that He gave me energy
07:03 and gave me strength
07:05 so that I could finish that event
07:08 and show my family that I didn't give up
07:14 because my skin and feet were removed.
07:18 He was given the first place
07:21 when it came to the finish line.
07:23 Ten months after his story was aired on Pinoy MD,
07:30 Mang Joe is still non-stop running.
07:33 In fact, he just finished 11 endurance races.
07:41 From the more than 340 kilometers he ran,
07:46 he almost doubled.
07:48 He ran from Manila to Sosugon,
07:53 which is 648 kilometers away.
07:59 Mang Joe learned how to walk.
08:01 He used to peel and cut his feet.
08:05 Now, he avoids using plastic.
08:09 He now wears comfortable socks.
08:14 It's not dangerous because it's more effective
08:17 to avoid the painful experience of his feet.
08:22 Good job, Mang Joe!
08:24 He said, "Any trial can be overcome.
08:28 Whatever challenge you face,
08:30 you should be safe and healthy
08:32 when it comes to the finish line."
