Nike Run Clinic Session 21

Yes I’m still keeping count of the number of sessions, and we’re more than halfway through the entire Clinic program.  If you’re wondering why my posts skip a session it’s because I usually am not able to join the Friday sessions of the clinic at BHS (traffic going to Fort Bonifacio on Friday nights are…

Nike Run Clinic Session 19

Like the previous session, last night’s session was jam packed!  For some reason the clinic just seemed to double its participants.  Running must really be getting popular!  As usual we started with a 5 lap easy warm-up run around the oval (2K) followed by the routines.  I arrived a bit late (a nasty habit) so…

Air Max Burger Anyone?

Olle Hemmendorff together with 7 other creatives/designers/photographers/artists were commissioned by Nike to interpret 8 Nike Sportswear icons.  He chose Air Max 90, and according to him: “In the tradition of material innovation of AM 90, I constructed a running shoe using the most powerful, most durable and most delicious material known to man: hamburger.” I…

Nike Run Clinic Session 17

It’s another great run session at the Ultra continuing where we left off from last week. Warming up was a bit of a problem for some as the temperature was mild.  It takes a bit more time before our muscles get really warm and we perspired less, but this made running more pleasant.  Like past…

Nike Run Clinic LSD

Earlier today Nike Run Clinic held its first LSD at UP Diliman.  This was the first opportunity we had the chance to do so since there are no races this weekend, and what’s good with this special session of the Run Clinic was that it was open to everyone, and even included free Rush Fitness…

Run for your Resolutions

This was one of the announcements made by Coach Rio during the last Nike Run Clinic session: an LSD at UP Diliman Campus on Sunday, January 11, 2009.  Here’s the excerpt from the Nike Running website: Kick Start your 2009 Resolutions Published: January 4, 2009 It’s that time of year again, a new year with…

Nike Run Clinic Session 15 (Season 2?)

After the very long holidays it’s the best time start burning those unwanted calories or simply to get back into shape.  Tonight’s session was the first this year and after the recovery sessions last December (the last ones I attended) it’s time to get back to business.  This time it’s about actually starting to realize…

Nike Run Clinic Session 09

You thought I’d lost count didn’t you?  Well I actually did, I just had to count the sessions since my last appearance.  I missed the clinic so much that even if I’m anything but good I just had to attend it—and I’m glad I did. After two weeks of being AWOL I’m finally back to…

Nike Run Clinic Session 04

This was my first Nike Run Clinic session at Bonifacio High Street and unfortunately I got there quite late.  It was my first time to go for a run session on a Friday so I actually forgot about it until before 7PM!  By that time, being a Friday and a payday, traffic was really heavy…

Nike Running Clinic Day One: Assessment

The Nike Running Clinic has formally started.  Unlike the classroom-like session of the orientation, last night’s session makes you feel like an athlete, well, sort of, because the session was held in the Ultra oval.  Plus you have real coaches to assist you and answer your questions. I got to Ultra past 7pm (I walked…

Nike Running Clinic Day Zero: Orientation

The orientation for the running clinic was held at the Brent Gym inside the Ultra premises last Friday, November 14, 2008 and was mainly hosted by Coach Rio dela Cruz.  It was my first time inside Ultra so I was a bit surprised at the condition of the gym: it was a bit run down…
