Baguio Adventure
Monday, March 24, 2008
Just got back from our annual Baguio family trip…
But, this one was different. It wasn’t about lounging around at the hotel while the in-laws went on a golfing marathon. It was all adventure, adrenaline, and pure fun.
Like real miners, we put on our gear…
and bravely ventured into the dark and eerie Philex mines.
We took the kids horseback riding (where my daughter and I could’ve slid off a hill were it not for the quick hands of the guide),
and joined the Easter Party (where Anton found the black egg to win him the 3rd prize).
We even had time for a day-trip to the beach in La Union.
Last but not the least, I ran 5k twice through the roads of John Hay amid the cool, crisp, fresh air of Baguio. The first run was with the hubby and my sister-in-law. We ran at different paces but enjoyed every bit of it nonetheless. The second time, I ran on my own. It was a smooth and fun run—no pain from my knee, no pressure about the time—just me and my great big smile against the refreshing Baguio background. Amazing!

Ooo what a nice vacation. Nice activities and great pics. Did you practice your swim stuff at the beach:) Good to hear that the knee is better.
glad you were able to finally run pain-free. was at baguio too during the holy week, had my long run around the grotto area. pamatay talaga yang mga hills na yan
don’t think i have anything left for the mizuno race, hope to cya sunday, ingat
Rick, nope I chickened out! Was afraid of jellyfish and sharks hehe.
Levy, great training for Mizuno! Parang humps nalang ang hills ng The Fort after running in Baguio
Baguio is the best place to “reactivate” your running. It is good that you were pain free in your runs and hopefully it will continue that way. AAV roads, Guard & dogs miss you a lot.
just take it easy and on the mileage. im sure in a few months you’ll be deadly again.
hi, you should have at least ran in the teacher’s camp oval and maybe saw vertek buenavista or rene herrera running there.
Welcome back Ms Jaymie!
Don’t forget your pre workout routine now ayt.
Patrick, I was supposed to run with Annie today. I changed my mind since I have a bad cough. I’ll probably run easy there tomorrow.
Roadrat, wow talaga? I’ll try that out in December when I’m fully recovered.
Yes Coach Ben. I’ve been doing my stretches and drills faithfully. Just missed out on the gym this past week but I’ll be back there soon.
ayan na!!! back in action na! oy jaymie, dapat kasali ka na sa ateneo aquathlon next year!
that’s a great break tbr! inside john hay, its good to run that hill from dencios to starbucks and earn your favorite venti drink…then slowly run that hill down for the sisig at dencios! haha with beer for the boys! …senor roadrat, buenavista was doing a training run during that milo 21k in baguio, did you see him with his escort in scooter? his uphill run was like a downhill run as well! hahaha that type of training in baguio earns him the podium finishes…really super runner…would be great to run loops with him at that oval…or just watch him…tbr, ben, how’s renz? still busy with work or back in action? hope to catch you guys soon! cannot catch you pala,masyado kayo mabilis… just see you guys soon!
