what's new with runner's world philippines

as this weekend is literally within the grasp of each and every excited runner-triathletes, I am just in awe with how fast Coach Ani de Leon-Brown got her tri mojos back in such a short period. last year, she got married, and became a mom, and in no time, got to the tri scene back just like that!

how did she do it?

up until now, people still consider running as one of the fastest and sure-fire way of losing weight. but running also should be accompanied by healthy eating/ diet. In my case, i've always been stuck at a certain weight, and  i believe that this reading the latest issue of Runner's World Philippines will be of help on how to approach this concern.

Runner’s World Philippines celebrates its first anniversary

Runner’s World Philippines celebrates its first anniversary with the April-June issue themed as the Weight-Loss Special. “As we look forward to more years down the road (and trails), we hope to give you even more training information, nutrition, up-to-the-minute studies, and uplifting stories to keep you running stronger and longer,” says Runner’s World editor-in-chief Marie Calica in her Editor’s Letter.

As the anniversary issue of Runner’s World Philippines trains the spotlight on the link between running and weight-loss, the issue also highlights the significance of focusing on what you eat when it comes to shedding those excess pounds. Featuring the article “Golden Rules of Weight-Loss”, these road-tested key nutrition principles will help you overhaul your eating habits and slim you down for good.

While running keeps you fit, healthy, and happy, more running-related injuries can also be incurred. Runner’s World Philippines gives you 10 time-tested principles by sports-medicine experts to teach you how to stay injury-free for more years to come. A simple change in the routine like knowing your limits, shortening your stride, and stretching the back of your legs are some of the principles you will learn in this feature.

In the anniversary issue of Runner’s World Philippines, find out interesting running facts and idiosyncrasies in the article “The Best of Running” as it features facts like the top distance runner in history, inventions that changed the way we run, the best running-inspired movies, the most popular Pinoy runner, and more.

time to let go

there are times when you have to let go of things you love not because you want to, but because you have to.
like what they say, you have to give to receive (kasi ang selfish mo naman if puro receive lang diba?)

 Mufasa's Ghost: You have forgotten who you are, and so forgotten me. Look inside yourself Simba, you are more than what you have become. You must take your place in the Circle of Life.
Simba: How can I go back? I'm not who I used to be.
Mufasa's Ghost: Remember who you are. You are my son, and the one true King.

QCIM 3

this was one of the last projects i handled before i left Mizuno. Why did I want to partner with this event? I did that because this is one of the racing events I would want to join. The route is different from the usual Fort-McKinley-Bayani Road- Kalayaan Flyover-Buendia-Roxas Blvd route that ever runner goes to every weekend (not unless you're into ultramarathons or multisport).

I recommend you guys join this one. its a fun race running through Commonwealth Avenue.

Get to experience the Motorcycle lanes first hand too! :)

      SAUCONY PROGRID GUIDE 5         VS        MIZUNO WAVE INSPIRE 8

I have been a Mizuno user for almost 3 years already, and one of my favorite running shoes is their Wave Inspire line. It combines both enough support for my mild overpronation without compromising cushioning (as compared to other brands) AND being lightweight also. Now, I am open to search for other brands that can provide the same answers to my needs (perfect combination of right support and cushioning and lightweightedness). I've searched the 'net and found out that Saucony seems to be the perfect match, almost identical to what Mizuno is.
