I’m on saving mode right now to prepare for a summer trip with the hubby and kids. So, no uneccessary purchases for me. None.

Li’l TBR Turns 7!

Today is a special day. It is the Little Bull Runner’s 7th Birthday today.
Like any mother bull, I am quite amazed at how fast my little baby has grown. Once upon a time, he needed me by his side every waking minute. Now, he is an independent little boy. A little [...]

On Cheating

Monday, February 25, 2008 17 Comments

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. I have committed a henious crime and I’m ready to pay the price—or perhaps I’m hoping I won’t have to if my dear guardian angel has pity over me.

You see, when no one was looking, I cheated thrice…yes, three times!
Based on my Return to Running Schedule, which [...]

2 Days to Pasig Marathon

Just two more days till Pasig. As the say in the local vernacular, dalawang tulog na lang! It will be a big day for most Filipino runners, especially those who are running the full 42.195 km.
I will not join the race due to the injury. Initially, I was planning to support Annie, [...]

Sport Beans, made by popular jelly bean maker Jelly Belly, are not your typical jelly beans. These yummy little babies are packed with electrolytes, carbohydrates and Vitamins B1, B2, B3 & C—basically what your typical athlete or sport enthusiast needs during long periods of exercise or activity. It’s like having your Gatorade in [...]

Little Steps

Little steps at a time. That’s what previously-injured-and-now- breaking-PR’s Photographer Ben texted me today about the process of recovery and getting back into running again. Yes, I had to agree. It’s all about baby steps and itsy-bitsy victories for me nowadays; a slow but sure way to start again without slipping back [...]

1st Multo-Sport Night Race

Thursday, February 14, 2008 1 Comment

I don’t usually include a list of triathlons in my List of Races so I decided to give this race its own post instead.  It’s just so unique (and hilarious!) it has to be shared:
Are you afraid of the dark? Or maybe those that go bump in the night?
Then it’s time to put your night [...]
