Adidas KOTR Race Result and Discussion
Wala po rito ang opisyal ng resulta para sa Adidas Hari ng Kalsada. Bagkus ito ay isang panawagan sa mga taong masyado nang nasisilaw ng mga hits o punto para sa pansariling blog. Natatandaan ko pa po nung ako’y nagsimula na aking blog, lubos ang aking kaligayan at may halong kaba na baka wala bumasa dito.. :D Ngunit hindi ito pumigil sa akin upang magsimula ng blog, at ito ay aking tinuloy pa rin. Noong magsimula ako ay wala pa akong kaalam alam sa mga tinatawag na hits, ako’y nagpo-post lang ng aking mga karanasan upang makapagbahagi rin para sa ibang tao. Yun lang! :)
Ang aking pinagtataka lang ay kung bakit ngayon ay may mga tao nang nanlilinlang sa kanilang mga mambabasa? Magpo-post sila sa ilalim ng mga interesanteng mga titulo na hindi naman tungkol doon ang laman. Paano nila nagagawang lituhin ang mga taga sunod nila? Dahil ba sa mga hits, dahil may kikitain ang isang tao dito? Ginagawa mo nang katawatawa ang pagblo-blog. At pati na rin ang pagkuha ng mga impormasyon sa ibang blog para lang may ipost sa iyong blog ay ginagawa mo na rin. Maging responsable sana tayo sa ating mga aksyon.
NO! to Copy and Paste! (mula sa isang blog patungo sa isa na walang pasintabi)
YES! Watermarking (upang mapangalagaan ang inyo mga pinaghirapang kunan na mga litrato)

Who's Running at the Adobo Run?"
Of course YOU are! Why shouldn't you? This race is something out of the ordinary, you get to run in a costume, is there anything else much fun than that? Besides you, there are also some celebrities who would be sharing the road with you like Illac Diaz and Gwen Zamora.
Possibly going to elicit shrieks and provide celebrity appeal to the event are the sure participation of GMA Artist Center's rising jewel Gwen Zamora. Gwen will don her erstwhile Cinderella costume of the telefantasya fame Grazilda as she joins the 3k category. Illac Diaz himself will be in a general's costume as he runs with a whole platoon of real-life soldiers in the 5k category. Noted sports host and personality Rovilson Fernandez and ace comedian Bearwin Meily would prefer to keep their costumes under wraps even as they set their sights in setting their respective personal bests in the virtually flat course of the 15k category. Several more celebrities are reportedly going to make surprise participation in their chosen race categories in the adobo Run, undoubtedly the biggest night race of the year.
For the post-race activities, Ebe Dancel, noted former vocalist of Sugarfree, will be jamming with the race participants who are in for some wholesome rock party. Also provide rocking beats at the race are top band Stonefree and rising indie band Blue Boy Bites. Other standout bands from the music scene will sustain the live performances at the adobo Run.
On the serious side of running, top Filipina marathoners Mercedita Manipol and Joan Banayag are all set to claim the spotlight in the 5k and 15k categories, respectively. This will be the first time Manipol and Banayag will compete in a night run. Providing, however, top-class competition to our home-grown running heroines are the formidable slew of Kenyan runners.
And to further provide excitement to male participants, the Playboy Playmates will be donning their titillating bunny outfits as they strut it out throughout the 3k course.
Registration for the adobo Run After Dark is extended until October 28, Friday. Visit now R.O.X. in Bonifacio High Street, Toby's EDSA Shangri-La Mall, and Runnr Trinoma to catch the remaining race slots. Satellite registration outlets are the adobo Magazine office at Unit C2-A Bldg., Karrivin Plaza, 2316 Chino Roces (Pasong Tamo ext) and Crush Communications office at the Ground Flr of Jupiter 1 Bldg, 56 Jupiter St., Bel-air, Makati.

Do you want to be an Ironman?
Congratulations to the Filipino athletes who competed at the Ford Ironman Championship!
YES! I want to be an Ironman!
But how? My fear of deep water would hinder me to complete even a mini-sprint race, sure I know how to swim, and little by little (with God's help) I'm conquering this fear. And when that time comes, I may be able to bravely swim any body of water. How about my biking skill? Yes I know how to bike, but haven't tried this skill yet on a road bike, but what more on a tri bike? My running? Sure I can run, but not that fast. :)
And so at this point in my life, I can't, and I won't, I don't have the luxury of time to devote mine for training. And I'm a wife of a triathlete, at the back of my mind, maybe I feel contended knowing that my husband gladly shares his accomplishments with me. For now I will just be the "Jinky Pacquiao" to a Manny Pacquiao, or the "Kelly Lawrence" to a Terenzo Bozzone or the "Neri Alexander" to a Craig "Crowie" Alexander. :)
And when the time comes when Erick is competing for his full Ironman distance, I would be on the other side of the road, cheering for him and I will be waiting at the finish line. :)
