- Coming Soon: TNF 100 at Clark
Oh boy, I want to join this! More info to follow soon…
- To Doc Fit or Not
Should I run or not? I’m registered for Doc Fit 10k tomorrow and I’m still undecided about showing up.
Let’s see. Since January, I’ve sought the advice of two of the more popular ortho surgeons, two acupuncturists, and a great PT. All have advised me to CONTINUE RUNNING, with a matching reassuring look whenever I ask [...] - Injuries are Nothing
For the past three months, I have spent huge amounts of time wallowing in frustration, anger, depression and self-pity over this ITBS injury. For an addicted runner, there’s nothing like a stubborn injury to give you the blues.
This morning, as I was massaging my tight ITB, my sister calls to deliver the horrible and [...] - TBR in Sunday Inquirer Magazine
Guess who’s on today’s issue of Sunday Inquirer Magazine?
The article below is about how I successfully recruited hubby into the world of addictive running. Er, I mean, how running has become a part of our lives. Thanks to Joy Rojas (yes, of Takbong Pangarap fame) for the wonderful article…The next article is about [...]

A FILIPINA RUNNER’S DREAM
Her ultimate dream was to run across the Philippines. In 2005, Joy Rojas accomplished this after running 2000km in 46 days from Mindanao to Luzon. She was the first woman to run across the country.
She said that this achievement made her feel alive. It compelled her to visit more places, do more [...] - Condura Run Website is Up
Condura launches it’s Condura Race website today. Click here to visit. Undoubtedly, it is the best race website I’ve seen; a close 2nd was the recently held Happy Run.

As if I wasn’t excited enough about running on the Skyway, they enumerated 9 other reasons why we [...] - Missing Asian Hospital’s RUNew
After a fairly good 8k Sunday morning run with the hubby, I was psyched. We had lunch at The Fort Strip and, over lunch, all the positive energy in my body told me that I could join Asian Hospital’s RUNew this coming Sunday. Since there’s no 10k in the race, we decided that we would [...]
- What Would You Do for Love?
I would run a marathon for you.
That’s what Tank Turner (Dane Cook) told Alexis (Kate Hudson) in the movie “My Best Friend’s Girl.” It wasn’t a great movie, but I loved that line. Well, I kinda fall for anything that’s associated with running.So, how far would you run to prove your love for your partner? [...]
- What Are You Doing this Valentine’s?
So, what are you doing this Valentine’s Day?
Please don’t tell me about your candlelit dinner by the bay nor the meal you plan to whip up for your partner; I don’t care for that (although you could tell the hubby so he’d get some ideas.) I’m more curious to find out how active, adventurous [...] - TBR 2×6 Recovery Program
It seems to be working! My homemade training recipe to rid me of Runner’s Knee and ITB problems is finally showing positive results. Maybe Jun is right, I should start calling myself Dr. Bull Runner due to my extensive experience with injuries.
Last month, I created the “TBR 2 x 6 Recovery Program” which goes [...]
