I just returned from one of the best experiences of my life, in one of my favorite places in the Philippines.  I sure have a lot of stories and pictures to share, but for now here are some select few photos that I could share while I cook up my narrative:

Acknowledgments

I would like to thank my takbo.ph family for the loving support which leads us to finish the 70 kilometer race that is PAU Ilocos Norte.  I could never thank you enough guys!  I love you all!

I would also like to thank Sir Jovie “Baldrunner” Narcise for coming up with wonderful races that really showcase not just Filipinos’ talents but also the hidden beauty of the Philippines.  This race is easily one of my most favorite races ever and I’m very much looking forward to the next!  Congratulations Sir for a very successful event!

To the people of Ilocos Norte, thank you for your warm welcome and hospitality!  I’ll definitely be back!
