Nothing fancy, serious, or even really coherent in this post. Just thought of voicing out some questions that’s been running through my mind and wondering about lately.
1. Whatever happened to Run Radio?
I was really expecting they’d launch Season 2 a short time after the end of Season 1, but then so far there hasn’t [...]

The Condura 2009 was my first half marathon race ever. I got my first medal there, and it was while training for that event that I got introduced to shinsplints. It was, at that time, also a pretty expensive race, the first one that I had to shell out 500 bucks for. So yeah, it [...]

If I would be asked to create a timeline of the key developments and events in the 2009 racing scene, I would come up with the following:
January - racing season opens with the PSE Bull Run, which was a flop(execution-wise)
March - standard for local races raised with the historic Condura 2009: Run for the Whale [...]

This is not a rundown of reasons why you should join the Run for Home. That has been discussed in detail, if not repetitively, in many blogs already. These are just some of my thoughts regarding the upcoming event which is generating so much excitement in the Filipino running community.
It is surprising that the registration [...]

I will be running in the VolunteeRun this coming Sunday.
I thought about running in the Botak event, but decided that it simply doesn’t fit with my plans for Milo(which I hold very very important). It is simply too long(even the 50K), and it would not be wise to risk it.
I was actually ready to register [...]

My Very Own Miracle Run
Racing in a new “longest” distance category has never been a walk-in-the-park or drama-free for me. The first time I raced 10, it was not even planned: a bib number fiasco had me racing 10 instead of the planned 5. The first time I raced 10 miles, my Katanas’ Air soles [...]

In a Nutshell
Wonderful, wonderful race. The Condura Run lived up to the high expectations of the Filipino running community, and maybe even exceeded them. This is very nearly every runner’s dream race come true: from the route to the giveaways to the water stations, this race got nearly everything, if not everything, right. There was [...]

Talk about timely news.
I was browsing through my RSS feeds when I came across this news item from Inquirer.net.
Timely because we are just a little more than a week away from the Condura Run, which, without doubt, has been the darling of the Filipino running community of late. The race, which is in its second [...]
