blue, green, or medicine

last week, a lot of my friends became ROCKSTARS.

this weekend, runaholics are up to another run-filled weekend with the following races:


 BLUE BLOODS are encouraged to run in this race as this is (by far) the only race I know in the Metro that passes by the Katipunan Flyover. I haven't heard of any other runs that passed by Katipunan Flyover except this for one. (Most often, the ones I know who pass by this road for their long runs do it under the flyover, not above, but i know some other exception).

 check out st. bridget school behind them :)

At the other side of the metro, GREEN PEEPS are having their own gathering of sorts in MOA.  Ever since I've been into running, I've always heard of the hardcore La Sallians trooping to MOA for their Animo Run. If you're after new PRs in one of the flattest routes in the Metro, I do believe you should troop to this race.

 

As the Trilogy's season-ender, Coach Rio's Afroman Distance opens up a new "distance" for newbie runners. This is not the first 32K run in the metro (please remember that Sir Jovie's Rizal Day Run is also 32K). But i do believe, with the progression of Rio's races, he might be cooking something up. I guess we'll just have to wait for it.

For those who are training for the year-ender marathons of 2010, this race is most often than not,part their training list for this weekend. (or if not for Q1marathon training long runs, this run is also used as a taper run / last long run for those going to Cebu's 50K Ultramarathon and for 2nd QCIM)



see you around! :)  happy running!



ayot? APIR!

why do i hate mizuno

Mizuno sucks. BIG TIME. yup. you read that right. why? point #1: they are not a mainstream brand. mainstream in a sense that they don't even ha ve well-known product endorsers unlike other sports brands around the world. i mean, how can they expect their products to sell like pancakes if the y're like that diba? point #2: they do not promote much of themselves. not much print ads if you'd ask me. i work in a magazine publishing company and i don't see mu ch of their products splashed all over our magazines. i don't see them havi ng television ads too. not even in the newspapers does mizuno have anything that will lead people to buy their products. point #3: the products are not that "fashionable." as compared to other "mainstream" brands, you won't see you r regular juans and marias weari ng mizunos together with their jeans to the office. you don't see them usually wearing mizuno s when they go around the malls, walking, shopping, chilli...

can you ENDURE the HEAT?

maraming nag rereklamo sa init ng panahon. makalipas ang ilang buwang pagkalamig-lamig buong araw, ngayon naman ang tindi na ng init, lalo na sa tanghaling tapat. at dahil dyan, kailangang magpalamig! yung ibang mananakbo, tulad ng ilang Ultramarathoners, sinubukan na ang kasiyahan ng pagsali sa triathlon. PERO sabi nila, lamang pa rin ang ULTRAS kumpara sa TRI.  yung iba naman, gustuhin mang mag TRI eh nag iipon pa rin para sa bike. eh paano naman ung gusto lang mag multisport? san sila sasali?  bakit naman sila sasali dito?  this event was conceived primarily to serve as simulation for those joining the Ateneo Aquathlon slated on March 20, 2011. in line with the team's partnership with Microwarehouse, the official distributor of Blackberries in the Philippines, the team decided to make it open to the public as a way of sharing to the public the joys of multisport. Here is the write up from the organizers (which i am also a team member :) )  ENDURE is a buddin...

SURVIVOR International Marathon: Smart SIM 2009 (part 1)

i'm sure a lot of runner-bloggers already expressed their opinions towards the recently concluded Smart SIM 42K SURVIVAL Run held this weekend. this is just to summarize things from MY point of view, and MY OPINIONS. This was supposedly the "most prestigious" marathon in the Philippines (well so they say). if being prestigious means: 1. No water stations for most of the stretch of the SCTEX 2. No support stations allowed along the long stretch of the SCTEX 3. No light along the way 4. runners' safety along the long dark stretch of the SCTEX was unsure (even though the road was closed from motorists, the sheer darkness of the place can put an injured, dehydrated runner lost in the darkness) kahit na they say bring your own lights, ibang level pa rin ito. then i guess this is it. i think it could be likened to training for the BDM, pero sa BDM alam ko may ilaw, at may posibilidad to buy drinks/ hydration along the way. i've had a lot of friends from takbo.ph who had...
