25 March 2012 – Personally busy with other things and for some reason, I totally had forgotten about checking the time for the 5K race. I blogged about this event yet here I was not remembering either the assembly time or the gun time, oh well, my bad, I said to myself.

My 5K Race Against Raze at the Bonifacio Global City
18 March 2012 – I arrived at the venue very early, with enough time to leisurely walk towards the starting line. Along the way I passed lots of runners.

A Greek Goddess at the Adobo Run after Dark
When this event was launched, I knew then that I wanted to try joining, this time running in costume. Haven’t done this before, you know. But my dilemma is finding the appropriate costume.

Newbie 101: The 5K Run
Running in a 5K race in 2007 after a year of hiatus from training, mind you, I could hardly reach the finish line. Without proper training, a five-kilometer run wouldn’t be that easy.

Go Marino, Go! A FAME Fun Run, September 23, 2007
Aargh! This is the second time around that I didn’t do well in my run. Instead of improving it, it’s getting worse instead. The culprit? Not getting enough sleep the night before–too excited to know what’s going to happen and anxious at the same time whether I can finish the race or not. I endContinue reading “Go Marino, Go!

Barbizon Mommy Milkshake Marathon, 4 August
Woke up feeling so tired today for not sleeping early the night before and wondering whether to join the milkshake run or not. I had to drag myself down to text Ben for a ride to the Fort.
