  1. I know you’re now fixed on your 42k training for the Pasig run but do you plan to join in any of these scheduled races? I’d love to enter the GK run if I find someone to watch over my two children while I’m away (one of the very few disadvantages of a single mom)

  2. Man that is so great that there are so many races. I wonder what my friend signed up to do. Knowing she doesn’t run (yet) I was worried when she said she was doing a marathon, turns out it’s a 5k.

  3. Nora, I’m trying to fit them into my training sched. I might join Raising Hope because this week is an easy week for me. I wanna join Run For Love too but let’s see if I can move my long run to another day. Do you read Kristin Armstrong’s blog on Runners World? She’s a single mom too. Very inspiring. Check it out. Hey, let’s meet up one of these days okay? Kinda busy lang lately eh.

    Rick, yes she emailed me about her first 5k. Smells like another running addict in the making haha

  4. Nora, isn’t the New Balance powerace scheduled in Nov 11? I signed up for this already and I recall that its not Nov 25.

    Anyway, thanks for keeping us informed of these races. This is really a big help. Got frustrated looking up the powerbar website for events. It still shows 2006 races. :(

    Pretty much. Awww she’s pretty but what’s up with the over striding, and that hunched over back, tsk, tsk, next! Haha. No not really, well sometimes. Already I’ve said too much.
