Francramon.com has a new look

Posted by on 31. July 2013

I’m introducing a new header and logo for FrancRamon.com site to highlight the different segments on this site.  Everything all started as my personal site (My Thoughts).  Then came the time I started chronicling my adventures (My Travels). I also got bitten by the runners bug and started documenting the story of my races (My Runs).  Also, the Zombie Journals is slowly recreating the different pieces that make up the stories of the different Outbreak Manila Zombies.  The site has grown much more than I expected but I’m loving how this site has developed.  From a personal blog to an all-around personal, literary, lifestyle, fitness and travel blog.  I guess, this site will continue to evolve and continue to generate positive contents that readers can enjoy and appreciate.

The different segments the make up my blog are as follows:

My Thoughts

My thoughts is my catch all blog and can feature anything under the sun from primers to incoming races and events to product features to hard opinions on certain ideas or a positive thought I want to share.

My travels features my trips, places, attractions and enjoying the finer side of life.

My runs brings you to each of the races I’ve joined and tells the unique story that each race has to tell.

The Zombie Journals goes into storybook mode and tells the story of the different Outbreak Manila Zombies and how the relate to the Outbreak Manila Universe.

First 5 Winners: September 2, 2013 (Suunto Bag, Socks and Cap and Francramon.con shirt)

1)  Ian Yu Dagulrunner · I have always liked the “My Run” & “My Travels” segment of FrancRamon.com because aside from getting the runner’s full experience and overview of the most popular run races; I also like the adventures & stories of a blogger/writer/traveler specially to places I’ve never been thus may serve as a virtual travel guide.

As an avid fan, it’s a must to check out Franc Ramon’s blog and you never know, you might get a surprise. #FrancRamon

2) Jhay Ramones  – MY favorite segment at Francramon.com is the My Run, My Thoughts & My Travels because I’m also a Runner & Traveller. My Run Segment gives me information about The running events attended by Mr. Franc Ramon, MY Thoughts Segments gives me information the upcoming running events and Tips all about Running, and My Travels it gives me information about other adventure places, their culture and attractions. #FrancRamon

3) Mai Flores  – What’s my favorite segment in your blog? Clearly, it’s the travel part. You’re the epitome of a well-traveled person. I love all the things that you’ve experienced during your trips around the world. Believe it or not, you’ve actually helped transport me to destinations that I haven’t been to before, like your first trip to Paris with the Eiffel Tower as your background. Paris is actually a dream destination. Hopefully, in due time, I’ll get to have my picture taken there as well. But other than that, I also admire the way you spend on these trips, particularly when it comes to the miles that you get from your cc’s. That’s travel hacking at its finest! #FrancRamon

4) joy | chemist2writer  – Congratulations on the new header and logo – they’re cool I love your blog, Franc – all of it. You always encourage people to run and have fun even if you don’t say it directly. If I wasn’t too lazy, I would have taken up running once again because of the many inspirational points I get from your blog.

But if I were to choose a segment that I love best, I would say it is the Zombie Journals. It never fails to amaze me how realistic the zombies look in those stories. The kid zombie was especially scary but all the rest of the zombies were crazily scary that I wouldn’t want to encounter them on the run even if I knew they were not real zombies  #FrancRamon

5) Cha Sy  – One word- Awesome! I was blown away by your site new header and look! I would want that animation too on my blog! I find your “My Run” segment very interesting. As most of you know, I have physical limitations and I am not allowed to run and travel as much as I wanted to. That is why I am so happy whenever I read your run adventures. You make me experience those moment, those run, that exhilarated feeling! I can almost feel on my skin the colors when you run for the Color Manila Run #FrancRamon

September 9 Winners (Suunto Bag and Francramon.com Shirt)

6)Aquiz Minlay  – As a runner, and with the ever rising cost of registration fees, the My Runs segment of Francramon.com comes in handy, as it discusses upcoming races in details and thereby helps me in choosing the best races and those that are of best value for my hard earned money. On the other hand, its detailed review of recent races, gives me a guide of good runs to look forward the next time around. #FrancRamon

7) Pal Raine  -My favorite segment at Francramon.com is the Zombie Journal. I’ve read all about the running experiences you have but for me the best among the rest of your post that really amaze me is all about the Zombie thing. I have encounter different kinds of a fun run and the happy and eery hours of running with the Zombie are great, though considerably less fun when you’re caught by them. … but wondering what twists and turns these segment will encounter. No place could have been more perfect than this creativity sparkling idea with your Francramon.com site.

8) Jobert Dela Victoria – My favorite segment is always the “My Run” segment which gives me the right information on upcoming events and gives me the right idea on what to join or not! #FrancRamon

9) Paul Ablaza  -My favorite segment of Francramon.com is “My Runs” because I can relate to your journey in running. From short distances like 3K to long ones up to 21K, i have no marathon yet on my belt because duathlon have distracted me (Lol!) but who knows, I might be back on track again since like you, I know I’m still on the starting line. just waiting for the ‘gun start’. #FrancRamon

10) U Running Running  – My favorite segment is “MY RUNS” wherein I read your comments on several fun runs and share your experience about it. I LOVE READING YOUR REVIEWS and LOOKING AT THE PICTURES, kc for sure one of the pictures ANDUN DIN AKO katabi mu LOL!

My favorite was the EAT AND RUN wherein KUYA JOBERT and I got the free racekit from you Sir Franc and the experience was great because you have to EAT ALOT after running hahahaha. This is the first time we met and then the rest is history.

The other run is ADIDAS wherein you did not just run but you also take time to judge who will be the winner of the CHEERING. Last one is TAKBO RUNFEST where we had great conversation about the race…

Congrats Franc Ramon , love the new look of website. KEEP ON RUNNING and KEEP ON BLOGGING #FrancRamon.
