New York - from the recently concluded NYC Marathon with 45,000 participants from different countries...

Congratulations brod Erick Labios, finisher and one of a few thousand who clocked in at under 4hrs, his name included in the print edition of the New York Times (11/8/10).

Brod Erick flew in from the Philippines after winning in the NYC Marathon Lottery held back in Manila earlier this year and gain a spot to participate here in New York City at this Major Marathon.

New York Beta Sigma & Sigma Beta got together for some happy hour drinks and appetizers at the east village in Krystals Cafe 81 for some jug-a-lug to congratulate and give a despedida for brod Erick, who make us all proud.

Mabuhay ang kapatirang Beta Sigma!
