- Forgetful Jones
My sister and i often joke about how forgetful we’ve become ever since we were injected with anesthesia during our children’s births. We forget a story midway through a conversation, we leave one or two items more often than we would like to admit…
- Upcoming Kid-Friendly Races
Little Miss TBR crept up on me while I was working on the laptop, “Mama, when will we run?” Confused, I ask her what run she was talking about…
- ‘Tis The Day Before Christmas
It’s the day before Christmas and I just love how slow and sleepy everything is until family and friends gather together for Christmas eve dinner and mass tonight. This morning was quite the opposite for me though. It was filled with energy and laughter and food and chatter. At 6:30 a.m., Annie, JunC and [...]
- The North Face 100 Update
I texted Neville Manaois of Pinoy Ultra Runners last night wishing him a great run for tomorrow’s TNF (which I am still moping over since I forbade myself from joining due to the risk of re-injury). He replied from Batangas with this SMS: “Raining hard here. River rising daw. Winds picking up. And temperature dropping. [...]
- One La Salle, One Wet & Wild Race
Despite the gloomy weather, over 5,000 runners showed up for the One La Salle run at The Fort yesterday. As I viewed the sea of green before me, I wondered if I had registered for a race or unwittingly signed up for one big La Salle family day. – A sea of green – - [...]

All collected running shorts will be unstitched and remade as umbrellas.” “…’Doubling’ [...]

- The Bull Gets a Bike
Last Sunday, I dropped by my brothers’ place to pick up my new old bike. One of my brothers unselfishly agreed to lend me his mountain bike so I could gradually dip my feet into the world of cycling. – My new hand-me-down bike – I have three brothers. And they have three bikes, if [...]
- Battered and Bruised
This morning, I lay flat on my back in the middle of our garage as the hubby slowly backed up the car making sure both right tires ran over my left shin. Then, cringing in pain I cried out “Do it again! This time slower!” Okay, it didn’t exactly happen that way. For the most [...]
- 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 [...]
