CEBU CITY, Philippines–Cebuanos showed up to show their support for the Filipino athletes in the 30th Southeast Asian Games Torch Run on Saturday, barely two weeks ahead of the biennial meet.
SEA Games athletes and sports officials led the lighting of the flame at the SM Seaside Cebu and the symbolic five-kilometer run at South Coastal Road.
The next stop of the Torch Run is in Manila, one of the major hubs where the games that will run from November 30 to December 11 will be held.
