Salomon City Trail Manila 2015
#Salomon #CityTrailManila2015 is among the coolest races you could join. It combines the rigors of trails with the pace of road and the rich heritage of Intramuros. Trails can also be in the city in the city as Salomon City Trail gave as 4 different looks of Intramuros. City Trail had us navigating asphalted and cemented roads, cobblestone paths, uneven surfaces, grass lands, stairs and concrete ramps. The warm temperature and the humid environment also made the course tougher but the scenic historical backdrop of Intramuros made each stride worth it. #SalomonPilipinas #MakeEveryRunAnAdventure #TrailLove Continue reading
Incoming: Run for Odyssey
CDO Run for Odyssey is a run for a cause. The proceeds would go to the Odyssey Foundation, which feeds malnourished and undernourished kids. Running the race help put food to a hungry tummy. Another reason to run is that it’s in BGC. If you’ve been running for more than 3 years, you’d know that BGC has been the main running hub for runners back then and here’s a throwback to those days. Expect a moderately challenging course as you navigate the climbs at Kalayaan Flyover, the long ascent at 5th Avenue and the rolling Lawton and Bayani Road terrain. Run for Odyssey is happening on November 8, 2015 with 5K, 10K and 21K categories to choose from. Register Now!!! Continue reading
Pinoyfitness Sub1 Baguio
It’s been raining for about 3 weeks before the run and somehow when the race started it stopped save for a few drizzle along the route.

The climbs were endless but the cool weather and the pine-scented atmosphere made this a really great feel-good run for everybody. Continue reading

Nat Geo Earth Day Run – Baguio #NatGeoRun2015
The memorable races for me are not my Personal Best races but it’s those where I struggle and find a way to finish the race. #NatGeoRun2015 Baguio Leg was a real challenge with Baguio’s natural mountain terrain and high altitude. It was a crawlfest as we’ve made our way to the steep ascent from the bottom of South Drive to the peak of Mines View and it was a mental challenge going back on a long ascending stretch of Loakan Road. It was great to be one among thousands of runners appreciating the climate, getting awed by the view, surpassing the challenge and contributing to the cause of the environment. Continue reading

Corregidor International Half Marathon 2015
#4Peat is what I can say about #CorregidorInternationalHalfMarathon and it has transformed from just a bucket list race for me to an annual event. This feels like a Bachelors degree in #CIHM and this one was the hardest of all the four editions I joined because of the scorching heat of the sun. I guess … Continue reading
