Women's Health- Athena Fun Run

saan ka namang nakakita ng karerang may ganito: 

 

ang kikay diba?

one night while i was in the MRT on my way home, i got a text from Summit Media inviting me to the Bloggers' Night for the Women's Health Athena All Women's Run scheduled on March 19, Saturday. weird noh? i was invited for a bloggers night, tapos pang ALL WOMEN pa yun run? so i texted back and said, diba pang girls yun? pwede ba ang boys dun? sabi nila pwede naman, so sige i confeermed my attendance. sakto lang din that was the day after BDM 160, so i can chitchat with other blogger-friends who might be there also.

since this is an ALL WOMEN'S RUN, shempre the free race kit is not for me, but for my girlfriend.

so there. to cut the long story short here are the details for the run.

the race is on the 19th of March, Saturday sa MOA. (okay dyan, flat course, so if habol mo eh maka PR, sakto ka dito) mapa anong distance ka man sumali, more or less eh flat yan. (kaya nga maraming nag bibike dito sa MOA twing umaga eh).



nung una kong malaman na may ganito (at malamang eh libre para kay gf ang race kit), naisip kong isali sha dito sa 3K lang, since medyo matagal na rin sha di tumatakbo eh. tingnan nyo naman ang ruta, simple lang naman diba, isang ikot lang. malamang maraming marshals dyan, so safe sha (at ang mga kasama nyang malamang sa newbies din).

pag dating ko sa Stock Market (ung venue ng Bloggers thingy), ang tumambad sa screen ay etong imahe na ito.



sa loob loob ko, aba, ang kikay naman ng Women's Health- Athena Run, hindi  medal ang pinamimigay, kundi FINISHER'S bracelet!  sabagay, kung ako naman eh sasali sa isang all-women's race eh malamang sa akma din sana ung pamimigay diba, so ok sa mga girls yan diba.

sabay naitanong ko sa mga kasamahang matagal nang nandun sa venue, ano yung sinasabi daw tungkol sa bracelet.  ang nabanggit naman sakin eh, para lang daw yan sa mga makakatapos ng distances na ito:





o kaya



hala! o diba, dapat mas mahaba sa 3k ang tatakbuhin para sa karerang ito.

so ayun, tapos na ung presentation, time to eat na ulit. (sobrang daming food! salamat Summit Media & Athena!)

so habang pinapass around yung mahiwagang IPAD registration ng mga Runrio team eh napaisip ako kung saan ko isasaling distance ang GF ko para dito.

buti na lang, si Rod Runner eh sinali nya si Mrs. Rod  Runner sa 5K, ayun, solb na ang problema ko. may kasama na si GF tumakbo, habang kami ni Rosgar eh mag iintay na lang muna. (tamang tama, may wedding kaming pupuntahan ni GF sa hapon naman). ayus diba? :)

kaya sa lahat ng babae diyan, sali na dito!

eto pala kasama ng race kits upon registering:





at eto pa pala!sabi sa CD na binigay ng Women's Health, para makakuha ng Finisher's Bracelet ang mga nag 5K at 10K ay dapat suot nila ang official singlet ng karera! take note, ang singlet ng girls eh literal racer back (tama ba ang spelling ko?) kaya ayun. ganon lang naman

eto ang sinabi oh

The race bag includes goodies from Women’s Health and Athena Milk for Women, and a specially-designed Women’s Health-Athena Milk For Women racer-back singlet that participants must be wearing as they cross the finish line in order to win and qualify for the finisher’s bracelets.

Registration for the Women’s Health and Athena Milk for Women All Women’s Run is ongoing until March 19, 2011. (mukhang pwedeng mag ONSITE registration kasi March 19 ung karera eh :) )

The registration fees for the respective categories are: P500 for 3K, P600 for 5K, and P700 for 10K.
-eto pa, since Runrio ang may hawak nito, kung gusto nyo ng murang race under ni Coach Rio, eto oh. sakto lang :) D-tag pa!

oh ayan ha, sa mga nag rereklamo sa mahal na races, eto isang ito hindi mahal, kaya lang pambabae lang in celebration of Women's Month (March).

kaya join na! :) (mga babae lang ha!)  (boys tambay na lang tayo, may tents naman ata dun) hehehe

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

virgin no more

people say that it's painful when you do it for the first time. a lot of my friends have done it way ahead before me.  people have been telling since mid-2009 that i should already try to do it.  i've always thought of doing this when i feel I'm ready for it, to commit to it.  I didn't want to do something I would eventually regret. doing this entails responsibility, and commitment, and would be really time-consuming.   let's begin with the end when i started seriously running at last year's Condura Run, I never imagined thinking of ever running a full marathon in the near future. after that condura run, i started training for 10K races, then slowly leveling up to having LSDs and 15K and 10milers, and eventually had my first half marathon at Botak Paatibayan in May 2009. during that race, i witnessed how a not so "well-organized" full marathon that packed up everything way before the "cut-off" when the race didn't even have a cut-o

want to know what's behind the WAVE?

  there are a lot in store from Mizuno this summer.  1. Other than the upcoming Infinity Run on April 11, there will be a trail run  co-sponsored by Tagaytay Highlands by April 25.  2. an exciting race in an exciting race venue! Sick and tired of having your usual races in the most common race venues? wait for another exciting race from Mizuno that features one of takbo.ph members' playground . Yes, there is a race outside BHS, The Fort/ McKinley, UP and MOA, Roxas Blvd. Another exciting race from Mizuno will be held in ORTIGAS! yup, you've read that right. another race venue which no race organizer has touched (recently hehe). As early as now, start your training in the dreaded St Martin and St.Paul hills, as these are where speed mamaws are made! :)  oh, and these are just the beginning. 3.oh yeah, did i mention that Mizuno Trail Shoes are coming to the Philippines? :)  (well i guess this means they've read my Mizuno blog . hahaha) (thank you jai and the gals of
