ProNation

 

I got this from my email. I think this is a good road race to join, not that expensive, and a "different" route from the usual BHS or MOA races. 
Read up to learn more about this race  from the emailed info below :) 

 
ProNation is an annual fundraiser and fun run activity of the John Gokongwei School of Management (JGSOM) Management Engineering Program and the Ateneo Management Engineering Association (MEA). Your participation will help MEA, in coordination with JGSOM, raise funds for the Ateneo Scholarship Fund that will enable underprivileged but deserving students to have a quality education and continue the proud tradition of the Ateneo.

ProNation is composed of three distinct competitive races: a 10K Open race (Men and Women divisions) for serious distance runners, a 5K Team race, as well as a 3K race for recreational and first-time runners. All races are open to all competitive and casual runners and walkers. It is the honor of ProNation to be organized by Mr. Rudy Biscocho, organizer of big running events such as MILO Marathon, Mizuno Infinity Run, Condura, Clark Freeport International Marathon, DZMM’s Takbo Para sa Kalikasan, and The Philippine International Marathon.

It will be held on February 20, 2011, Sunday at the Ateneo de Manila University, Loyola Heights Campus. All races begin in front of the Blue Eagle Gym.

All winners of the 10K Open for Men, 10K Open for Women, and the 5K Team Run will receive cash awards and trophies, while winners of the 3K Fun Run will receive special awards. Refer to the following table for the prizes for the 10K and 5K categories. Specials awards for the 3K category will be announced later.

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...
