I’m Alive!

Just wanted to let you know I’m alive and kicking.  A bit down and depleted from the tumultuous week I had—a rollercoaster of sorts due to the evil injury that came and went every hour of every single day.  I didn’t know if I was injured, recovering, fully recovered, or just going insane.  All I know is that I did all I could to alleviate the tightness in my legs during the past week.

I skipped blogging for two reasons:

1) I was getting really frustrated furious about the injury.  Had I ranted about it over here you would leave your computer screen with your eyebrows connected as one, both nostrils flaring, then you’d head straight for your boss, husband/wife, or best friend and yell at them for simply breathing.

2) This baby Macbook Pro of mine needed some upgrades.  It was the first time I parted with it for three whole days (not counting vacations) and, while I thought I would die of boredom, I actually felt liberated from the reins of the world wide web…and oh yes, work.  (Forgive me for not answering your comments yet.  I will soon!  Let me catch up on work first!)

Anyhow, I’m back.  I’ve got my 10k race bib for Doc Fit which I’ll be exchanging for a 5k due to the injury.  For now, my 10k debut (not that it’ll be such a momentous occassion) will have to wait…just until June I hope.

  4. Hopefully only till June. Rest up and keep doing those exercise. A day without my Macs? Only if I’m out somewhere doing something fun.

  5. Good things come to those who wait. You’ll have your chance when its time.

    I have yet to drop by Phil Heart Association to claim my bib number. I registered yesterday afternoon by downloading the pdf and filling it up using Adobe Illustrator. I paid by depositing 100 pesos to BPI and included the scan in the pdf I sent. Now if only Ms Mary can email me the bib so I dont have to drive there anymore. hehehe

    Unfortunately, there are no shirts available already. Im on the 600 plus runners list. Any one care to give me their shirt instead? May kapalit naman, friendship.

  8. Ben, good luck to us!

    Marga, take cover! haha

    Idnod, hahaha that’s so true!

    Rick, oh I’m hoping i’ll be fine by June. Pray for me please.

    Mark, see you at the race. Hope you got your bib already since it’ll be a hassle to do so tomorrow. As for your offer, I suggest you throw in a free post-race meal to go with your friendship if you really want a singlet. hehe

    Miraclecello, I enjoyed your blog so hope you don’t mind the link.

    Mond! That’s next week! Let me wish you congratulations in advance. Don’t even think of cut off, you’ll definitely finish long before that! I hope your family will let you listen to the talks! What I would give to just be in the same room with them. Email kwento and photos okay?!
