A Night to Remember: Takbo.ph Nightfest

It was one of those oh so rare Saturday night events that I dare not miss—I can have my long sleep after a Friday nightlife, be reunited once again with friends I missed for so long, and be able to run on a new place.  Nothing beats the charm of running in a new place,…

Fun Back in the Run: The Hyundai Fun Run Chronicles

It’s been a while since I’ve run in Roxas Blvd., much more run a race with no expectations—just for the pleasure of having fun while running, and Hyundai was able to bring that with its first fun run.

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.

Finally, D-Day has arrived!  Ultramarathons sure are gaining popularity, fast! Thanks to PAU’s efforts, more runners are now braving ultras.  Considering that this race was staged more than 500 kilometers away from Manila, the turnout was phenomenal with more than a hundred runners!

Comeback Race at the Trails: New Balance Trail Adventure Run
