The date 11/11/11 (November 11, 2011) is a tad more especial for me, more than it’s visual appeal, as it marked this blog’s third anniversary. It is also the last Friday before my first 32K at Run United 3 so it’s the best time to carbo-load—and for this special day I picked the latest addition…
Bacolod: the City of Smiles. One need not go far and wide to validate this claim, and there’s more to Negros Occidental’s capital than the Masskara Festival.
The Masskara Festival became the main reason of our Bacolod City visit after our half marathon event got postponed, and we were fortunate to catch a glimpse on why this event is so popular for both local and foreign tourists. With what I witnessed, I was truly impressed! This is part of a series① ②…
Today is the 11th day of the 11th month of the 11th year after 2000, and in most international date formats, it is expressed as 11/11/11. This date comes along once every one hundred years and aren’t we lucky to experience it? More than just a series of ones, this date is important to me because…
From adidas Philippines: MANILA, October 23 – The adidas King of the Road (KOTR) came to a vibrant and colorful close at the Bonifacio Global City grounds as thousands of participants fought to the finish as they vied for the ‘adidas Southeast Asia King of the Road 2011’ crown.
Silay City is the gateway to Negros Occidental, being home to the modern Bacolod-Silay Airport. It may not be as popular as Bacolod but it is a must to be part of your Negros Occidental itinerary. It is home to “living” historic houses, and much more!
Time to escape the tropics for a while and experience some mild weather without going so far and so over budget—those were some of my considerations when I accepted my friends’ invites to join them to run in Macau. Heat had always been my kryptonite when running and the opportunity to run with mild weather…
I’ve always been hearing good things about Bacolod City so when the opportunity came, we quickly grabbed our tickets and booked our flight. Of course we didn’t just toured around Bacolod City as we have an entire island for our discovery. There were so many unexpected things that happened to us during our trip which…
One of my most awaited races for the year, Adobo Run After Dark didn’t disappoint as far as being one of the most fun events of the year! It was a real fun run, and here’s how it was from my perspective:
The United Nations (UN) has estimated that today, October 31, 2011, the world’s population has reached seven billion people. That’s 7,000,000,000! Of course, this figure has some margins of error as nobody can really tell the exact population of each country in the world. For your reference, the Philippines is estimated to have a population…
Halloween is almost here, one of the “newest” and most enjoyable western tradition assimilated with our own. For kids, it’s much ado about the “trick-or-treat”-ing, but for the kids at heart, it’s about the costumes and parties! It’s fun just thinking about it, but I have a problem–I don’t have a costume yet!
The first ever adidas King of the Road (KOTR) Southeast Asia Championship had just concluded in Bonifacio Global City, Metro Manila, Philippines, and I’d say it’s the most “international” race I’ve experienced in the Philippines so far. Here’s my recap on this outstanding race:
