Women’s Health POP-UP Studio Fitness Series

The workout is timed, up to eight minutes. We were grouped by four where each had to do and execute properly the moves—from running a 100-meter distance, push ups, squats to ball slamming.  Each had to count and the total number of times we did each workout would be the total workouts done by our group.Continue reading “Women’s Health POP-UP Studio Fitness Series”

An Award for this Blog!

This blog was meant as a vehicle to hone my skills in writing.  What better way to do it than by journaling something about that interests me most, running.  It never occurred to me that I could be a blogger since writing is my waterloo in my secondary years.  I tried to improve step-by-step, didContinue reading “An Award for this Blog!”

Are You Game? I’m Game!

20 May 2012 – It’s not what you are thinking.  Nope.  I didn’t grace the cover of the Women’s Health (WH) magazine.  This was a freebie taken at a photo booth during the first-ever Are You Game? event last Saturday, May 19 at Bonifacio High Street Amphitheater, Bonifacio Global City.  The sun shone brightly thatContinue reading “Are You Game?

It just happened so spontaneously while most of the ladies were “SBing” over takbo.ph site. Rachel (a.k.a. Eichbar), a fellow runner, asked how I was and IContinue reading “What Do Runners Do When Not Running?”

Girl Power: Will Women Outpace Men?

Have any of your running friends approached and told you some of these things? “You’re strong and fast!” “PR?!” “Podium finish? Wow!” “You’re my target.” A good friend of mine even said this to me, “You’re my target. Beating you one of these days is my nirvana!” Some male friends in the running world haveContinue reading “Girl Power: Will Women Outpace Men?”

My Romance with Running

My running background is like almost every newbie runner in the world. One day a three-kilometer run for a cause by a non-governmental organization was organized and that was it.
