It was 2010 when The North Face 100 (TNF100) was first staged in Baguio. It was also the last time I joined. This year, they’re returning to Baguio—and so am I! And this is my story.

Game Plan: TNF100 2016 (50K)
It’s been six years since I’ve last ran TNF100 which was then also held in Baguio. I did the full 100K back then and now I’m doing 50K so this makes it the shortest TNF100 race I’ve joined! 😀 This being my first time to do the 50K leg, I thought of making a guide…
Race Recap: Salomon X-Trail Run 2016
I had forgotten when I last ran the trails so when the opportunity to do so came, I quickly grabbed the opportunity. Knowing the past editions of Salomon X-Trail, I knew it wasn’t going to be easy—and it really wasn’t as we all figured out.
Visita Iglesia 2016
Visiting multiple churches during Holy Week, also known as Visita Iglesia, had become a tradition of mine for the last few years and this year I had the chance to revisit some of the most beautiful and revered churches in the country. Here are the 14 churches I had visited this Lenten season.
My First Automattic Worldwide WP 5K
I’ve been blogging with WordPress for seven years now but this is the first time that I got to do something with the community, albeit not in the same location per se.

Superhero for a Day: A Morning Inside the DC Comics Universe
It’s not every day your get to suit up as your favorite superhero and it’s not every day you see thousands of superheroes in a single location, all running! But that day came, on the day of DC Comics’ 80th anniversary, via the World of DC Comics All-Star Fun Run.
The Old and the New at AmCham ScholaRUN
AmCham ScholaRUN was one of those rare events that came along that gave me the opportunity to be reunited with the folks that I started running with and at the same time encourage new ones to start running. It’s not a big, branded race but it was quite memorable for me.
World of DC Comics All-Star Fun Run
I cannot be more excited when I found out that a DC Comics-licensed fun run is to be held in the country, and it would be a first in Asia! It would be on April 18, 2015 coinciding with the 80th anniversary of DC Comics. And if it’s DC Comics, expect superheroes! Here are the…
A Perfect 10 (Miles)
It’s the New Year and what better way to jumpstart the year than with a run? And what’s great is that I got to start it with Takbo.ph’s event, running the 10-mile leg. Here’s my story of this delightful race.
Rexona Run 2014: The Race I Almost Never Had
Rexona Run is one of the races that I always look forward to every year and as far as I can remember, I’ve never missed one since it started. I can’t describe how I felt when I thought I may not be able to complete one this year.
Manila to MoA on Foot
It was one of those weekends when I got the urge to revisit some old routes that I’ve not been to for quite a while. This time I thought of running along Manila Bay via Roxas Blvd. from Quiapo, Manila to the SM Mall of Asia, Pasay City.
