  1. 1. How long have you been running?

    1992 - 2002, I'm retired now, doing something else

     

    2. What are your running essentials?

    motion control shoes, shorts, singlet, lightweight cap, sunglasses

     

    3. What's your next race? Current PR?

    none planned

     

    4. Your running goals.

    lose weight = done

    get over my gf = done

    5k, 10k = done

    olympic distance triathlon(s) = done

    half ironman = done

     

    5. What made you decide to run?

    sounds corny but just like Forrest Gump, my GF broke up with me and I needed to clear my mind of her

  2. Has anyone tried the wellness center near cogeo, antipolo? The "doctor" uses acupuncture needles and attaches electrodes to it. The punctures are done mostly on the feet.

     

    Any comments or feedback on this "doctor" and clinic ?

    1. pwede siguro, but considering na 3 days 2 nites lang kayo, i would advise against it eh. HK has a lot of places pa na you can visit, and i doubt you can finish everything in one day. Most probably kasi ganito mangyayari sa inyo e:

     

    a. arrive in hk aiport, say 8:00 am (if you got the 5:00 am flight), you'd probably be out of immigration by say, 9:30, grab a bus or eat, either way, malamang dating mo na sa hk proper around between 11:00 to 12:00. so half a day na ang nawala sa inyo. :( now up to you if you want to look around pagdating nyo sa hotel nyo or rest muna. you could probably visit, The Peak, Symphony of Lights and Avenue of the Stars on that day na rin siguro. Kung kaya pa, you can also visit Mongkok para sa Night Market, Ladies Market. Pagod lang nga kayo. heheheh

     

    b. 2nd day, you have Ocean Park to visit. You could probably be finished with the place ng mga 5 hours, yun e kung hindi ka na mag ra-rides :) but if you do, I'll say cguro aalis ka sa OP ng around 4 - 5 na. So ubos na din oras nyo.

     

    c. 3rd day, assuming that you got the last flight back to Manila (10:00 pm), you have a little bit of shopping to do in the morning sa area siguro ninyo, then if you really want to go to CityGate, that's about 30 minutes travel time via MTR. So let's say dating ka dun ng 12:00 afternoon. chances are, matatapos ka sa cguro mga 2:00 or 3:00, so you have to go back to your hotel to check out (you can check out early if you want then just come back to get your luggage, just request to them na ganun gagawin mo, papayag naman sila e) then libot lang saglit, tapos head to the airport ng 6:00 in the evening for the 3 hour check in time. if you do arrive early naman sa Airport, pwede ka din maglibot dun kasi malaki sya and there are a lot of shops to go through.

     

    So as you can see, I doubt you'll have time to visit Macau, IMHO, kasi uubos talaga kayo ng oras din, e almost an hour din ang travel from HK to Macau, not to mention the line in Immigration sa Ferry terminal.

     

    2. Yes, all those mentioned na shops, nasa CityGate. :)

     

    3. Hindi naman masyado cold, pero hindi din naman sya jacket weather, I think. Basta definitely, hindi sya kasing humid ng say August.

     

    Hope this helps. Opinion ko lang po yan. Just enjoy na lang muna HK, then, just go to Macau some other time na lang. :)

     

     

    all of the above are great inputs

     

    skip macau, it will eat up at least 1 full day

     

    enjoy !

  4. anybody know of a good package promo for everything (airfare, land and boat transfer, breakfast etc etc) that is reasonably cheap... preferable beach front...?

     

    thanks in advance

     

    check out waling waling, they have a website, just google it, enjoy !

  5. Go to Tung Chung near the airport, Citygate Outlet Mall. You can take the MTR, red line.

     

    Some of the outlet shops are: Burberry, Polo, Seven, Benetton, Nautica, Esprit, Columbia, Puma, Adidas, Nike, Quicksilver, New Balance, etc.

     

    Bought adidas sneakers for P1600. Exact same shoe still displayed at Greenbelt and selling for P3500. They even have heavily marked down JL Puma golf shoes at the Puma store. Great bargains, check it out.
