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. …
Shoes, Shoes, Shoes!
Shoes are probably the only piece of equipment that running entails—and strictly speaking, even that is optional! After more than two years of running, here’s how my shoe collection looked like.
Shoe Review: adidas CC Ride
Every one’s in a while, a shoe comes along that breaks the monotony of stereotype and blurs the line between performance and fashion. The adidas ClimaCool Ride is one such shoe, but with its good looks, can it also perform? I was on the lookout for a good daily shoe that can also double as…
Shoe Review: Merrell Trail Glove
Merrell recently introduced to the Philippine market their Barefoot Collection and I was lucky enough to win a pair of their segment for trails, the Trail Glove. At first glance it looks like a regular pair, but given its name with a matching Vibram name on its sole, it had got to be much more…
Lucky 8: Globe Run for Home 2011 Chronicles
Time flies when you’re having fun… and also when you’re busy! I’ve been so preoccupied with lots of different things that before I knew it, it was already the weekend of Globe Run for Home! To make things more “interesting,” I’ll be doing 21K—the distance that I least like.
Condura Skyway Marathon 2011: The Bests and the Worsts

The Philippine Association of Ultrarunners (PAU) brings another ultramarathon “to the masses,” this time to the trails. For its debut trail ultra we were taken to the site of second largest terrestrial eruption of the 20th century—Mt. Pinatubo.
Meet My New BFF: VFF Sprint (Vibram Five Fingers)
I’ve always been fascinated with Vibram Five Fingers (VFF) ever since the first time I saw it. At first I thought it’s crazy because back then I always thought that shoes should be thick and soft (cushioning). Fast forward, I started running, and learned all about my feet, and eventually, shoes. Even my first post…
Bodivance™ Thermogenic Accelerator
Too much techy terms, I know, so let’s break this down a bit. Thermogenesis is the process by which heat energy is produced by the body through metabolism such as exercise and other physical activity. A thermogenic accelerator speeds up this this process allowing the body to utilize stored calories more rapidly. In short, shorter…
Impromptu 42: My CamSur Experience (Part 2: Race, Route, and Review)
Did I mention that CWC (where the starting line is) is several minutes away from Naga (where we were staying)? Well, because of this we had to wake up at 12 midnight and aim for the 2AM shuttle towards the venue. It’s the same old story of having that so-little sleep before that so-long run. …
