I’ve been very privileged to have been part once again of Pico Tri Invitational for the second year in a row, and this year’s event saw the event grew much bigger than the previous. Here’s a behind the scenes look back at this event that happened last April 06, 2013.

Visita Iglesia 2013
Like many Filipinos, I commemorated this year’s Holy Week with a visit to various churches. I realized that I wasn’t able to do this last year, so this year it’s a must that I outdo the shortcomings of the previous year.
2012: Last Hurrah
2012 had been one of the most “interesting” years of my adult life but unfortunately running took a back seat for me this year in terms of mileage. That doesn’t mean though that there isn’t much to share about this year! Here are ten (10) of my favorite posts for the year:
From Running to the Runway: Glorietta Vibe and a Guinness World Record
2,255 models, five runways, one new Guinness world record. That about sums it up for what transpired last November 29, 2012 with the Glorietta Vibe event which I’m gladly part of. Here are some of the behind the scenes of this record-breaking feat from my perspective.
My First 16.8K Race with adidas King of the Road 2012
The recently concluded adidas King of the Road 2012 is probably the most “international” race in the Philippines so far this year with runners coming from all over the world, one of the most colorful, and has one of the best finisher’s medals. Here’s the story of my first 16.8K race.

Remember my almost three year old article “Top 5 Best Places to Run in Metro Manila?” Well, one way or another, it had spun off from the web to the small screen yesterday at the “Best Places to Run in the Metro” segment of Sports Pilipinas over at NewsTV Channel 11. And of course, I…
Another “Perfect” Race: Run United 2
After what seemed like an eternity, I’m finally back to into running. It had been more than three months since my last race, and I’m glad that Run United 2 was here to kickstart me back into sense. Here are my accounts of what I thought to be the best Run United leg so far.
My First “Podium-Finish” At Powerade’s Hydration Camp
I seldom do a behind-the-scenes post about event launches, but for the recent launch of Powerade Ion4, I am willing to make an exemption because I had my first ever “podium-finish!”
The Chronicles of SAR: Homeward-bound (Day 04)
All good things come to an end, and after an interesting side trip to Hong Kong it’s time for us to return to Macau, and later on, back home.
The Chronicles of SAR: First Day at Hong Kong (Day 03)
Our China Special Administrative Region (SAR) tour would of course not be complete if we didn’t visit the other SAR, Hong Kong. For our third day, we were up early to temporarily say goodbye to Macau, and say hello to Hong Kong.
Dried Mango Chronicles: Cebu City Marathon 2012
Cebu City Marathon 2011 holds my record for my fastest marathon so breaking my course record would also mean a new personal best—what a pressure! On a lighter note, merely completing CCM will finally take me across my first 3,000 kilometers. Will I be able to break my previous record, or will I just break…
Dried Mango Chronicles: Kublai Khan and the Day before Cebu City Marathon
