Globe Run for Home is my second race in Cebu this year and my first non-marathon distance. It was just a bit over two months ago since I last ran here and I was surprised at how big Cebu races could be! This race is the most attended one I’ve seen so far in the…

Salomon XTrail Run Teaser
Last weekend, I together with some runner/bloggers were invited by Salomon to conduct a trial run on the route of the Salomon XTrail Run to be held on March 21, 2012 at Tagaytay Highlands. As someone who has done trails from Nuvali to Baguio, I can only say that this race is going to be…
I Outran the Sun at Run United 1
This blog post is written minutes after my Run United 21K run, even before the winners are even announced! It’s quite nice to have a netbook handy and Wi-Fi around! Anyways here’s my account fresh off the race.
Dried Mango Chronicles: Cebu City Marathon 2012
Cebu City Marathon 2011 holds my record for my fastest marathon so breaking my course record would also mean a new personal best—what a pressure! On a lighter note, merely completing CCM will finally take me across my first 3,000 kilometers. Will I be able to break my previous record, or will I just break…
The Chronicles of SAR: Galaxy Entertainment Maratona Internacional de Macau (Day 02)
December 04, 2011, the day of my second marathon outside the Philippines and my first road race below 15°c. I could’ve come more prepared but things don’t always happen according to plan so the goal was simple: to have fun and finish within cutoff!
My First 32K at Run United 3
True, I already did ultramarathons in the past, but this year’s Run United 3 was my first ever 32K race. Unfortunately though I came to race partially injured because I had thought I’d missed it.
A Night to Remember: The Adobo Run After Dark Chronicles
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:
Nike, We Ran Manila!
My first and longest race in more than two months, Nike We Run Manila surely gave me a lot to think about when it comes to my future long distance races. It was a lot of fun, but it wasn’t as easy as I originally thought it would be!
Half Marathon, Full Fun: The Yamaha Run for Heroes Chronicles
At long last I was finally able to get back to regular racing, and staging this comeback was with the Yamaha Run for Heroes held last July 03, 2011 at Bonifacio Global City. it may “just” be a half-marathon, but it was a race of different caliber.
The Tales from the Valley Trail (Challenge)
I’ve ran onto the routes of Nuvali before, both on and off-road, and honestly I find it a bit boring especially when compared to natural trails of the mountains—until Valley Trail came along! It was a race with a lot of firsts, including my first DNF!
Makati Route #2
I guess I wasn’t that satisfied with my first Makati-based run so the following night I was again out on the streets and seeking a new route. This time around it’s a notch longer and ending on a different spot.
New Work, New Shoes, New Route
It felt like eternity since my last run with my GF, about 20 days to be exact. With all the hassles of changing work, turnovers, countless meetings, transferring to a new office location, settling down and getting oriented with my new job, and all the nitty gritties in between, I found it very difficult to…
