Ultra (Philsports Complex) Track Oval Opening and Closing Times

I love running on track ovals and I am glad that Ultra (Philsports Complex) is just a P60 cab fare ride from my place. 
Love it that Ultra track oval is very well maintained. 

Ultra track oval is open Mondays to Sundays, except holidays or if there are events, from 5:30am to 9pm. The ticket booth also opens at 5:30am but closes at 8:30pm. So make sure that you buy your pass by that time. You can also buy tickets in bulk. That way, you are a assured of entrance whenever the track is open. A pass to the track oval is only at P35 per person per session. 

I feel safer running on a track oval since there are no vehicles. 

I always feel bad whenever I go to Ultra and find out that the track is not open for public on that day. They only post announcements by the ticket booth. If it is a holiday, may it be on a weekday or weekend, Ultra is closed. However, when there are events on the track, it will be closed either. 

Afternoons in Ultra is beautiful.
  
Another reason to love Ultra is the nice sunset. 

However, the bathroom facilities are not great at all. It's tolerable but I suggest that you already come in your running gear.

Happy training, everybody!
