It's sub-tropical, so not overly cool
The weather, at that time of year, should be good for running. -

I don't know how cold exactly 18° means.That's a pretty mild day. If there is a breeze it might feel chilly. An excellent temperature for a run generally speaking.

@kelly Thank You, as you know, We only have Summer and Rainy Season here.

Ok, I just researched it. Wow, like no temperature swing at all. I figured Monsoon season would have some kind of difference, but it doens't.
The average year-round temperature measured from all the weather stations in the Philippines, except Baguio City, is 26.6 °C (79.9 °F). Cooler days are usually felt in the month of January with temperature averaging at 25.5 °C (77.9 °F) and the warmest days, in the month of May with a mean of 28.3 °C (82.9 °F).
