thoughts for tootee

a friend shared this quote to me this morning.

"Love your
 Whatever type of Bike you have,

(RJ's mountain bike)

(PapaPIO's mountain bike)

 it's important to remember that unlike a car, the bike itself will not make you go fast:


YOU ARE THE ENGINE...
(let's go tootee! hataw mode!)

With a basic racer that fits properly and has decent wheels and tires,
if you have the will, you can beat the world.

The rider counts for far more than the bike"

(the quote was from Cycle Racing by William Fotheringham)

why do i hate mizuno

Mizuno sucks.

so, you're a runner. you've heard and might have read the benefits of running,  and what running (or exercise in general) does to you and your body. other than the stated obvious reasons why running is good for the heart,  here are some more reasons on why running is really good for the heart. let's just have the pictures speak for themselves...     (akala ni fifi sha lang ah :) hahaha)                             running is really good for the heart, as can be seen through these images (but running also is not that friendly to your pockets, hahahahaha) for other run-related love entries check on the following blogs too: -   kikayrunner - ronald a.k.a. halimaw so ano, tara, takbo na! ayot? apir!     eto talaga ang dahilan sa break up ni...

and the search began....

it all started with this thread in the Takbo.ph shoutbox. everyone was enticed as this would provide us with a new experience. for some of the group who were into mountaineering/adventure racing, this was a fresh welcome to the numerous road races occuring weekly. this event would have provided the much needed rest for our road shoes, and a much needed welcome for their trail running shoes :) they even had compass reading learning sessions to prep the group which, was mostly composed of newbies. the day started early, and we rode this magical school bus of some sort going to maragondon. (take note! ang bus ride na ito ay special dahil bawal pala ito sa edsa or something to that effect, pero naka daan kami!) o diba ang cute nung bus? ;) umuulan kasi ng malakas nung papunta kami ng maragondon kaya ayan half lang ung windows na opened. we arrived at the site around 630AM, and sobrang tagal before nag start ng race. we got super bored while waiting for things to happen, so while others we
