A Market!-able Experience May19

A Market!-able Experience...

After what I have experienced with the previous race, I didn’t  have high expectations for this race. I woke up at around 4 and arrived at  Market! Market!  at around 5 am. It was the usual race day. I wore my shoes in the parking area and did some stretching; got in the mall to use the rest room and there I was,  waiting for the 10-miler to start. For the first time after a couple of races, this race started on time (thank God). The only other race which I could remember that started on time was the Condura 21k. Most races should be organized like this one: It started on time Lots of road marshals (so that no one gets lost) Lots of cold water (and cups) Powerade at the finish line I reached the finish line with a time of 1:41 (unofficial). It’s really difficult to set PRs if you don’t train-I’m just thankful that I still get the chance to run on weekends. Congratulations to the organizer for making this such a happy running experience for me. Image from...

Back to the 10 KM World May10

Back to the 10 KM World...

      After almost half a year and four months of no physical activity due to my foot injury, but now I’m back.   At some point, my foot did start to hurt but whenever I asked myself the question: do I stop? The answer has to be NO. I’m gonna have to update this entry again later, but I thought it would be fun to post some goofing around after the race…   Find out how Kuya Eugene and Kuya Ian (being a bit “under the weather” cos of flu) finished their half marathon. Har de har har 😀  Music definitely played a large part in making me a bit more relaxed while I waited for them at the finish line! One of the hosts was right…it’s like Woodstock in a race event. I can’t remember who the musicians were but they definitely kicked ass playing their instruments! Definitely loved the one below....
