Dayagan sa Kalibutan para sa Panimayay

Amo jaon an tagtawag na "GLOBE RUN FOR HOME" na ako tagdiyaganan nan Domingo, 19 July 2009, sa Fort Bonifacio.

Pero adecer an ako mga hulagway... here's some perks of running during "big time" races. Tan-awa si pandesal... iban ra gud an "FHM's Sexiest Woman of 2009" na si Christine Reyes. Ini tagkuha human an djagan. Badja an ngisi! Hehehe!

An start nan Globe Run. Sa 10k event, kapin na nan libo an nandiyagan.

Hamok isab sponsors, lakip na 100 plus.


Jari na ako dapit sa labot nan Starting Line, hehehe. Pero maradjaw kay an mga bag-o na running shorts nan Nike (DriFit) jaon nay bulsa sa lujo. I can safely put my cellphone camera and some cash for the after-run taho.

Globe also used the Champion Running Chips. Ihayuthot mo ra sa sapatos, nan mu-activate na dajon inig giud nimo sa rubber mat. Jari an results sa www.runpix.com. Try looking at stats of Anthony Pangilinan (5256) who ran 21K.

I am a Timex user since 1997. After reviewing Garmin and Polar watches, I think I will buy the Timex Ironman sports watches below. Running the Globe Run entitles me to a 15% discount (YEHEY). Timex is MADE IN THE PHILIPPINES, so definitely it deserves our support. Besides, even my friends and classmates abroad wear Timex. A british classmate at the London School wears exactly the same Timex Atlantis I have. Unlike the Nike Sportsband, I can use Timex Ironman during my runs at night because of its Indiglo function (visible at dark).

Expensive yet worth having since it is GPS-based. See specs and prizes here.

At the finish line - 1hr 13 minutes. Check Runner 3804 at www.runpix.com. Its a poor performance at more than 7 mins per kilometer. Well, no training man gud. I had 5-6 minutes last year. I should train religiously again.

The shoes is a one the key factor in running. I used a pair of basketball shoes (high cut) during first race. Tsk! Tsk. Tsk! Now I learned. So far, my Nike Zoom (Nike +) has the best cushioning. But since it's lifetime (kuno) is just 300 kilometers, I need to get one that combines comfort and durability. I am eyeing for a new AdiZero pair from Adidas. Running the Globe Run is automatic 20% discount in Adidas stores (YEHEY again). While waiting for a budget on that, I can still use my older Mizuno, And1, Reebok, and World Balance running shoes.

Arang ka busy an photo canvass sa 10k, so tag-gakos ko rakan inin 21k, hehehe,


An manininyut, si Pandesal Totskie Mosende.

Glad to hear that at least one Pidjanga is now into running. Actually, I have convinced two more souls who will embrace running. It's never too late to run. A friend of a friend of a friend ran HER first marathon at the age of 50. See her profile here.

Hala, manyagan kita!
