Of Stubbornness, Vacancies, and Nine Inch Nails

Posted by crazygrace on Aug 25, 2009 in 10 km | 2 comments

…and so being stubborn (from not having enough sleep to still running on race events and LSD-ing with Bolt) had its “fruitful” effect: almost an entire week vacancy from work, spent at the hospital. From splitting headaches, to fluctuating fever, and sudden nausea.

 

 So, after a couple of weeks I decided to attend another 10K race event (yes, without training), which was Globe’s “Run For Home”

 

 

 

… and that’s when I learned two things the hard way: NEVER will I drink 100plus EVER AGAIN because it messed up my stomach …

 

 

and I won’t be running for another month or two because it was during this run I realized that I DID get hospitalized and that I needed more rest.

 

 

So, it began: a series of no-run weekends and just chilling with some of my people…

 

 

and one of the best parts: VIP tickets for Nine Inch Nails – Live in Manila with Arman and Paul! A “spellBLINDING” experience — check out the lights!

 

 

…continued hanging out with some of my best buds…

 

 

…ordered a huge-ass pizza for my officemates

 

and celebrated that night with the greatest of friends (pictures I have yet to post here …Mark! Upload already! :D)

After more than a month-long vacation, I realized that I needed to get back on running…too much of no workout and/or exercise is gonna make me “dazed and confused” again! So, tomorrow I got into the list of attendees for the “RUNNR Academy: The Science of RUNNING” and I am just as excited as a little kid waiting for her mom to buy her candies and chocolates when they hit the mall on a sunday-family-day get-together! Woohoo! See y’all tomorrow then! I mean…err, later! 😀

 

 

Let the beat rock!
