ppdd

mga bro pasama sa EB after nang run sa nike we run MNL. or maybe we can set a practice run in preparation for that event.

yun oh. nice. san nyo ba balak mag practice run? ako kasi baka dun sa 2 runs lang (rfr and run bgc) makatakbo, plus bball every sunday.. so yun na yung pinaka practice ko going to Nike Run

sablay kasi sched sa work sched (panggabi)

anyway, has anyone seen the pics for NB Power Run last sunday? participant pala yung mga ex ko.. hahaha

anne curtis, bianca king at karylle... syet!

nabasa ko din yung about sa "buy shoes, run free @ condura run" promo ng asics sa FB

buti pala inantay ko.. thanks Floppydrive for the heads up

kaso discounted na din ba prices nila dun sa GT2160 like sa planet sports/ toby's/TAF?

ayan dumadami na tayo.. nice

half-marathon lang ako sa condura.. parang nde ko pa kaya yung 42km

nahiya naman ako bigla.. kakabili ko lng nike+ sportsband.. got it at a marked down price na, may discounted rate pa (1.7k+) sa sports warehouse near puregold/sta lucia

gusto ko lang makita yung pace ko during practice run. may times kasi na tinatamad ako tumakbo, nagiging slacker hehe

registered my next run: 10k @ RFR on Nov18

If you're set on Asics, please wait for November 15, when Condura registration begins in Greenbelt 3. Asics said they have a surprise as they are a major sponsor. Baka magbigay ng discount!

hmmm.. pde ah.. let's see. thanks sa info bro

 

...might join Run for Marikina River on Dec. 09 (lapit lang sa min 'to)

wow. ayus to ah. sino ba organizers ng run? lapit lang din ako marikina

Congrats, Turk! Galing!

 

I came in 1600th+ something place. Middle of the pack. Have to do better next time.

haha.. same here.. middle of the pack.. hopefully next time andun na tayo sa upper half bro

@artedpro -- after NB power run anu pa takbuhan mo bro? nde na ako nakapag register sa NB. sayang

im trying to see if maka singit ako sa tetrapak run (nov18),, then run bgc (15k sa Nov25), before Nike Run.. that'll be 3weeks na walang patid (may bball game pa after sunday evenings wapak)

im currently trying to buy a new pair of running shoes... still undecided if im going with Nike Lunarglide 4 or Asics GT 2160/2170 (all marked down prices)

Congrats on your PR! Grabe! Ang laki ng medal! Kaya pala may libreng bag para may lalagyan yung medal - exacto lang sa front pocket. hehehe

 

Naubos na daw 10K sa New Balance PowerRun.

congrats to you bro

nice to see u posting here.. kelan next mo takbo? sama ka din pag may meet ups after ng run

wala na 10k sa NB? wapak.. thanks sa update. 25k naman kaya i-try ko? nakupo!

i was reading the feedback regarding RUPM.. nagkaubusan pala ng hydration and bananas for the 42k runners.. even yung ointment para sa cramps.. tsk tsk..

@yrrah -- nice time bro. i'm thinking of running sa NB power run and sa Run BGC pero baka 10k lang pareho (ahem... may sasamahan lang ako tumakbo.. )

congrats to all RUPM finishers!

i was able to beat my previous time and now have a new PR: 21k in 2hrs 46mins+ (unofficial)

this is despite having muscle cramps starting from 14km onwards.. grabe.. kelangan talaga ng practice

thank God wala din major injuries (just a small blister on right foot, and an aching body )

next target(s): 21k below 2.5hrs, 10k under 1hr, 25k / 32k

sayang i was not able to meetup with bros Turk and Spirit220 after the run. (may baldadong officemate kasi akong kasama hahaha) di bale, may mga next runs pa naman... @bro yrrah maybe you can join us next time as well

Feedback on RUPM: nice route, plenty of hydration stations, banana stations, first aid/medic stations, may markers na din so nde ka mangangapa kung ilan km pa ba tatakbuhin mo, dami din portalets along the route (although nung inabot ako ng call of nature along buendia eh sa pader nalang nagparaos haha)

overall, it was a well organized event (atleast for me). good job rio

now preparing/conditioning for my run.. i'll try to get some more sleep

mmaya gala muna sa mall before punta sa ofc

for the first time, medyo sablay yung pre-run spa session.. hayyyy. dont know how it will affect my run.. sana makabawi sa post-run session bwahaha

mukhang aabutin na naman ng ulan yung RUPM.. wag naman sana.. hirap magpatuyo ng sapatos

yup! first time ko sa the fort. downside masyado maaga ang assembly time. north pa area ko wala naman akong sasakyan.

actually yan din prob ko. malamang magstay at matulog uli ako nito sa ofc

pm mo kami (turk and spirit220) ng cp num mo bro so we could meet up after the race

baka may iba pa runners na interested jan to meetup after RUPM.. tara!

@turk -- kitakits after the run.. eto nga nagpaplano na ako sa pre-run spa session para magpa-kundisyon haha

@yrrah -- takbo ka ba sa RUPM?

FR on PUP Fun Run

it was a disaster.. sabagay first time nila mag organize ng ganung event.

--late start

--few hydration stations. sa dami ng tumatakbo parang ang konti ng tao na nag aassist sa stations

--few volunteers / so many runners

--masikip yung lanes. mdami participants parang namamasyal lang.. yung FUN lang talaga, wala yung RUN part

--10k runners should run the route 2x pero wala sila binibigay to determine na naka 2x ikot na yung runner.. pde tumambay lang and say na naka 2 ikot na

--dami shumo-short cut

--the route itself.. since all category halos same route ang gagamitin.. nagkagulo. inabutan namin yung start ng 3k category and it was chaos!

--baggage counter was a disaster. kanya kanya kuha ng bags.. nde nagawa ng organizers na papilahin, eh andami nun

--nde ko lam how accurate the timing on this event, kasi wala nmn timing chip.. manual lang

pero kahit dami negative points, this was for my alma mater so ok lang. and one other thing: so many pretty under-aged kolehiyala girls, in shorts, either running away from me or running after me (kasi ang gulo eh... karambola na yung 3 categories)

feeling ko most are 1st and 2nd year students na nirequire sa PE prof nila na sumali haha

hope they do better the next time around

next run: RUPM 21k

registered 10k sa PUP Fun Run on Oct21 (appetizer for the next event)

then, 2nd attempt sa 21k category @ RUPM on Oct28

hay dahil jan sa Nike We Run Manila na yan, gusto ko tuloy maghanap ng pares na 24yrs old. then sila paregister ko para sa run

pero ako yung tatakbo sa day ng event

hahaha

pero nice shirt.. and balita ko may finisher's shirt pa after the run

syempre may mini concert din

eto daw yung race kit na makukuha
