III

It’s the third day of the year.  New Year’s two days ago already.  Yet, it’s not too late to start.  And I, am doing just that.

Best Nine of 2017

I can’t believe that we are now on the last few days of 2017!  As much as I’d like to say that this year flew by quickly, I also realized that a lot of things also happened that seemed like so long ago.  And there are nine experiences that made this year very memorable for me.

Apple Chronicles: Space Center Houston

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
Sharing my experience at NASA’s Space Center in Houston as my post for the Holidays. It’s one of the places you should not miss when in Houston.

Apple Chronicles: Exploring Houston

I only have eight days in Houston and most of it is occupied by official business.  I also only have a weekend so I have to make the most out of my time and forget about jetlag.  And so, my adventure started the following morning. This is part of a series① ② ③ ④ ⑤…

Apple Chronicles: Houston, We’ve Arrived!

After seven hours of waiting, I’m finally on my way to North America!  Now comes the longest non-stop part of my trip: a 10 ½-hour flight over the Pacific Ocean and the Arctic! This is part of a series① ② ③ ④ ⑤ ⑥ ⑦ ⑧ ⑨ ⑩ ⑪ ⑫ ⑬ ⑭ ⑮ ⑯ ⑰

Apple Chronicles: Taoyuan International and EVA Air Infinity Lounge

I arrived in Taipei with seven hours to spare.  Realistically, it’s too short to really do much in the city, but it’s ridiculously long to spend inside an airport!  Good thing that Taoyuan International Airport (桃園國際機場) is huge and should be able to keep me entertained. This is part of a series① ② ③ ④ ⑤ ⑥…

Apple Chronicles: A Journey of Superlatives

November is a special month for me as I was born on this month.  But this year, November had been extra kind to me as I embarked on a practically month-long trip on the other side of the world.  And everything about it was unexpected. This is part of a series① ② ③ ④ ⑤ ⑥…

Nine

I can’t believe I’m doing this again for the ninth time!  Wow!  Now I’m counting down the days to my first decade of running and blogging!  Thank you so much for still supporting my blog and I look forward to more years of contributing to the running community.

Race Recap: Hello Kitty Run Manila 2017

Hello Kitty Run Manila 2017 is perhaps the largest fun run I’ve seen for the year with more than 10,000 participants.  It’s also one of the more interesting ones as participants don their costumes and showing their love for Hello Kitty.  Here’s my story from the first Hello Kitty run in the Philippines.

Behind the Scenes: Powerman Philippines 2017

One of the perks of being a blogger is that you get to witness some world-class sporting events from behind the scenes and even meet the pros up close and personal.  This time around, I’m covering something that is a stranger to me—the world of duathlon via Powerman Philippines 2017.

Palawan Chronicles: El Nido, et al

There are still a few things that I’d like to save for posterity from my epic Palawan trip.  That includes some interesting sights from Taytay to El Nido, and the little airport as well.

Palawan Chronicles: Hanging On

Apulit Island may be small, but three days are still not enough to fully enjoy this paradise.  But before we finally depart, there’s just one more “crazy” thing I wanted to do…
