Re-Running San Francisco: Bay to Golden Gate Bridge by The Scientist Runner on Oct 31, 2010Exactly two months to the day after running The San Francisco Marathon, I found myself again in the Bay Area for a one-night-only visit before heading back to home base.  Earlier in the week, I had attended an alumni leaders' conference on the i...

My Longest LSD Run by The Scientist Runner on May 5, 2010Google ‘LSD’ and you’ll likely be led to ‘lysergic acid diethylamide’, the psychedelic effect-inducing but non-addictive drug popular among the 1960s counterculture generation, as being the word’s definition. In fact, I had known no other...

Running in Laguna: 14 Towns in 4 Long Runs by journeyingjames on May 4, 2010I was getting bored running in my usual route in UPLB so when schedule permits I would try to run on the roads of Laguna (mostly concrete and asphalt, some times dirt if the vehicles would not give way). After 4 Long Runs I was able to cover 12 towns...

SLR (Spontaneous, Long Run): Sta. Rosa to Tagaytay by El Kyoshi on Dec 26, 2009Starting this week, I’ve been following this training program I found online for 100 km ultra which I think would prepare me for the BDM 102 km run in March.  Looking at the schedule, the glaring difference from the usual one I would use for a...

17.5KM Long Run and 80KM Long Bike by Tech Spec on Dec 14, 2009I had agreed to the invitation of my friends to do a long bike last Sunday. I wasn't signed up to any race event so I thought it was a great idea to have my bike experience its first long journey. The longest it has traveled was around 45KM in a sin...

Chilly WonderRun: the Baguio Race by on Dec 7, 2009L-R: Bryan, Mon, yours truly, Ellen (won 9th place), Carlo, and Judah NB was supposed to be my last race for the year. But being asked by Ellen a.k.a. Kelcy33 and Master Mon, to go with them to Baguio, I just couldn't say no. Besides, a 30-km race on...

A Sneak Peek of QCIM Route by on Oct 7, 2009Thankful that Supertyphoon "Pepeng" (international name: Parma) cut across northern Luzon with little damage, I joined the QCIM long slow distance or LSD last Sunday, Oct. 4. I arrived at the University of the Philippines (UP) Oblation, the...

Run Free—Like Crazy?! by I am Pinoy. Running Pinoy on Sep 11, 2009Have you ever thought of running like you used to when you were a child—no schedules, no pace, no distance, no pressure—just pure clean fun?  I was lucky enough to have a chance at that last night at Bonifacio Global City (BGC) during my long ru...

Ran Miles, Not Milo by The Bull Runner on Jul 6, 2009While most runners ran in green at Milo Marathon yesterday morning, I ran a blissful 14km in shaded, asphalted roads in Makati with the hubby and friends Harvie and Mike...

Lost Command and their Panata Run by on Apr 12, 2009I've learned that some people in Manila, both young and old, walked for several hours towards the church of Antipolo as a religious tradition during Holy Week. I didn't know how this tradition really started but a simple invite from the Lost Command...
