With all systems go for the 5th Condura Skyway Marathon this coming Sunday, I thought it would be fun to reminisce about the Condura Marathon as seen through my Bull’s eye going all the way back to 2008 before they had 42k or set foot on the Skyway. (Man, I feel so ancient!) By the [...]

The Ragnar Relay Series is on my list of must-do races in the next five years. The only Pinoy I’ve met who’s done Ragnar is Gilbert Tang of Chris Sports. In fact, Ragnar was his inspiration for staging the Chris Sports Epic 250 Relay a couple of years ago. I’ve done the Nike Hood to [...]
