Success
With or without “fight” problems, I would have joined this race because of my ties to the College. Not only was I a student there for 7 years, I am also now a part of the faculty. And years ago, I was also tangentially involved with the College’s Student Council, which is the entity behind [...]

Went to Ayala Alabang this morning for the 1st Run Green Marathon.
It was my first race in Alabang ever, and my first race after quite a long hiatus. My last race before that was the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon last December- almost a month and a half ago!
I must admit, I was kind of jittery [...]

Ten bucks
We actually signed up for this race weeks before. This is one race that, weirdly enough, was not advertised on Takbo.ph. Had I not chanced upon it on the RunCPI website, I wouldn’t have known about it. We actually signed up not knowing whether we would actually run it - since we knew even [...]

Prologue
I wasn’t really planning on racing this Sunday. There was a race in UP, but quite frankly I am not too keen on shelling out money(even just 150 bucks) to run around the Acad Oval - especially when my monthly racing “budget” was already stretched by the upcoming Urbanite Run.
A few days ago, a Takbo.ph [...]

I love running 10Ks, although it has been a while since I ran one. In the past month or so, I always opted to go for longer distances - sometimes with not-so-good results. The race calendar seems to be much mellower this June(unlike in May when it was ridiculously full), and this Sunday there was [...]

Last Sunday’s race was a choice between one in Alabang and one in San Fernando, Pampanga. I haven’t ran in both places before, and it was really sad that they had to be scheduled on the same day. But I guess it can’t be helped especially now that races are finding themselves more and more [...]

A self proclaimed Kapamilya, I must admit that I wasn’t aware that this race was being sponsored by the QTV 11 show Chances Are till I was already registering at GMA 7. I didn’t even know there is such a show. Anyway, Step Up for a Cause was a simple yet well-organized event. It was [...]

Whenever there are multiple races on a given day, something(more like someone) simply has to give. There would always be a dominant race causing all the buzz while the other(or even others) get much less attention. The Exodus Run simply got the raw end of the deal this Sunday, being overshadowed by the Airspeed Run [...]

My past two races had been relatively small events with category participants never exceeding 100. Last Sunday I returned to the “big stage” with the Takbo para sa Kalikasan. I consider Takbo para sa Kalikasan as a must-run event since it is one of those races in the country with a great history(this is the [...]

There were three races to choose from this February 28-March 1 weekend. I chose to run this one because of its novelty. DocFit would be held in UP, Botak Paabilisan in The Fort. Runrio races are always nice, and I’ve never ran in a Botak sponsored or organized run before(and I want a Botak singlet). [...]
