- Runew on 26 Feb 2012
I always love a race in the South, especially if the course includes the rolling hills of Ayala Alabang. Here’s one race, Runew on February 26, 2012, that will give you just that (for 10k and 21k), plus proceeds will go to Asian Hospital Charities. Event: RUNEW 2012 Date: Sunday, February 26, 2012 Time: 4:30am [...]
- Li’l Miss Bull Runner Turns 7 & The Woodrose Jog
My Li’l Miss Bull Runner turned another year older today. Like I’ve told her almost every single day the past week, I don’t have a baby anymore (sob sob), but we’re lucky to have a fun, adventurous, and sometimes feisty little lady. (You need not ask who she took after.) She’s only joined one race [...]
- 9th Gabriel Symphony on 3 Sept 2011
Gabriel Symphony stands out as one of the annual races that’s all heart. The atmosphere is filled with generosity, positivism, and unity to make a difference in the lives of children with special needs. Now on its 9th year, the Gabriel’s Symphony 12Hour Multi-Sport Celebration in Memory of Gabriel raises funds for children with cleft [...]
- Gabriel Symphony & Rotarun Races: Extreme Opposites
Double race weekend, folks. One was light and fun, the other was downright exhausting and forgettable…
- Animo Tri Simulation
I woke up at 5 a.m. to do pre-simulation data gathering: took note of my time at last year’s mini sprint and the time of the 3rd placer who was closer to my age than the 1st and 2nd placers who were in their teens and printed out four copies of the race map, one for each of us…
- Hope in Motion 3
In the October issue of Runner’s World, it says that a cup or two of coffee an hour before a race may cut your time by 30 seconds. Although I wasn’t aiming to break my PR (I don’t think I ever will beat my 46.57 10k PR), I opted for coffee instead of my usual [...]
- 6th Gabriel Symphony
Joining the Gabriel Symphony 10k run was a last minute decision I was glad to have made; good thing there was onsite registration. Yesterday morning, I arrived at the Alabang Country Club at 5:30 a.m. sharp anticipating a long line of onsite registrants; it turned out that I was the only eager beaver in the [...]

- Lucky Me
I haven’t posted for a while now (yes, a few days is long for me) for two reasons: 1) I attended a four-day seminar, which to an independent, multi-tasking designer/mother like me, felt like forever and left me exhausted every single day, and 2) I have fever. Argh…I feel terrible about skipping training the next [...]
- Sore No More—Really!
This time it’s for real… I am back! My 7-day forced abstinence from running is officially over. I am healed! – Annie and I after our run. We look so poised! You wouldn’t believe that we were laughing like noisy high school girls before this shot. It was a happy happy day. – I ran [...]
