It’s been quite a while since I was last at the SM Mall of Asia, and like with other business centers in the country the development in the area is going full throttle. Among the most prominent structures under construction is the SM Mall of Asia Arena. Here are some pictures from my quick tour…

A Blogger Who Also Runs?!
Lately I’m starting to think that I’m not a runner who blogs, but a blogger who also runs! Well, after almost three years of running I’ve never had a podium finish, but my posts have!
McDonald’s Philippines Nutrition Facts
At long last, McDonald’s Philippines decided to “drop the bomb” and reveal the nutrition information about the food they serve. Caution: I guarantee you won’t be looking at that burger the same way again after reading this, so if you’re ready for the hard truth, please proceed… Disclaimer (from to the flyer that you may…
Lusso.
With rains pouring in on our long weekend, some of the best things to do are stay indoors and eat good food—slow down and appreciate the things around us. Every once in a while, it’s nice to savor the finer luxuries in life, and for me one of those luxuries I enjoy most are food.
Thelma
Finally, a local film inspired by our beloved sport, running! This movie is entitled “Thelma” and is inspired by the stories of true Filipino athletes who were discovered in the province, and fought their way to represent the Philippines in the world stage. “Thelma” is the first full-length feature film production of Time Horizon Pictures. It…
The Joy of Running in the Rain
This is probably the only way I can describe the video below, scenes from the 35th National MILO® Marathon Manila Eliminations. I posted it here to motivate me (and hopefully, others) whenever rain pours on my (our) runs. Too bad I missed the water therapy. 🙂
All Work, No Play
In a perfect world, or at least in an ideal world, we’d be able to do all the things we love. But in the real world there are those times when we sometimes have to skip the things we want in order to do the things that we have to—and for many of us, it’s…
Baguio City Quickie
What’s crazier than driving up and down Baguio City from Metro Manila for a day tour? It’s doing it all over again! We did it once, and last weekend was able to do it again.
I Should Be In Boracay!
As I write this post I should have already been in the Philippines’ premier beach destination, Boracay, but instead I’m at a Korean fast food, sulking with their hot and spicy fish fillet—all because my much awaited vacation was cancelled!
Philippine Independence Day: Wear the Flag Proudly
June 12 is the Independence Day of Asia’s first Republic, the Philippines, and one of the most visual ways of showing our patriotism is through the proud display of our national flag. But as per my observations, there are many who are still unaware on its proper display so before we start getting creative in displaying…
Season Finale
As the calendar’s page turn from May to June, a huge chapter of my life closes as well. It’s one of the most memorable chapters of my life, more than three years in the making, and one that bore witness to my huge transformation—from a regular office folk to a sports and health enthusiast!
GF Found “Dead”
It’s been so long since I last ran that I didn’t even realize that my GF405 had “died!” It was one of those moments that I never thought would happen as I always used my GF to run and always noticed that it’s running out of batteries. Now I only use my GF during races…
