Organizer: Rudy Biscocho
Overall Rating (10 highest): 8
THUMBS UP!
- Skyway Run: You dreamed it and you pulled it off! Hats off to Condura for creating a race like no other.
- Medals for Half Marathon finishers: Everyone loves a medal. Even better that someone placed it around our necks.
- Race marshals were effective [...] - Sick Leave
Just when I thought I could start training again, I was struck by a slight fever, achy bones, and a tummy ache yesterday. I spent the entire day in bed consumed by an overall feeling of blahness, thinking about 1) the near perfect weather for swimming, 2) missed gym visit that day, 3) downgrading my [...]
- Runners’ Christmas Get Together
When there are no more races to attend for the rest of the year and Christmas is just a blink away, what do runners do so they don’t miss each other too much? They plan for a Runner’s Christmas Get Together so that they have a reason to meet again and chat about…what else?…running and [...]

- My xray results. No fractures here. -
“Are you desperate?” This was the question that my good ol’ doctor posed before me soon after he reviewed the tibia xray I submitted to him last Thursday. After visiting him regularly (perhaps “way too often” is a better description) the past weeks, he ruled out a fracture [...] - Big Birthday for a “Big Fan”
It had been two weeks since Michelle contacted me requesting for—of all things—my autograph. Don’t laugh. This is serious stuff. It was to be a surprise birthday gift for her boss, Gen, who she said was a big fan of this blog. Certainly, I was flattered. But, more than that, I was in serious doubt [...]
- Girls’ Night Out
After a tiring, stressful week of rushing the kids to school, helping my daughter adjust to her first few days of nursery, beating work deadlines, dealing with new household help, and mourning the loss of yet another week’s run, I welcomed the thought of meeting Happy Feet girlfriends Marga and Banggi for a full night [...]
- 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 [...]

All participants in the previous Mizuno Infinity Run will [...] - Elma Muros, The Legendary Athlete
- With Elma Muros-Posadas and Annie -
Elma Muros-Posadas, according to Pinas, “went down in Southeast Asian Games history as the only track athlete who won in different events.” She won 15 gold medals, more than any other Filipino athlete, and is hailed as one of the country’s sports heroes.
I’ve spotted her many a times [...]
