Two of My Toes, Missing!
Oh no! I don’t know what happened, but I suddenly found that two of my toes are missing! See:
Shoe Review: Saucony Kinvara 2
One of the shoe brands making a big comeback in the local scene is Saucony, and I was very lucky to have won a pair during its intimate launch. The first pair that caught my eye was the Kinvara 2, and the rest was history. Here are my personal accounts about this lightweight minimalist trainer.
Shoe Review: Mizuno Wave Prophecy
The much anticipated and latest addition to the Wave line of Mizuno is already in the country: the Mizuno Wave Prophecy. This flagship model from Mizuno, to my surprise, comes in the form of a trainer and I’m lucky enough to be given a chance by Mizuno to take this handsome shoe for a ride. …

New Work, New Shoes, New Route
It felt like eternity since my last run with my GF, about 20 days to be exact. With all the hassles of changing work, turnovers, countless meetings, transferring to a new office location, settling down and getting oriented with my new job, and all the nitty gritties in between, I found it very difficult to…
