Im Officially Registered

Yey! I am officially registered for my first half marathon (21km) race in the upcoming RUNRIO Trilogy 2011 Leg 2: Run United 2 at the Global City on 21 August.

This race will be my early birthday gift, its 9 days before my big day. I am looking forward to the culmination of a 5 month training program which I adhered to the letter and with a lot of heart.
I will not expect anything spectacular from my end, just to finish with a smile, strong, and injury free and will be just fine.

I still have about a month to go and yet I am so excited. Finishing the race will be the end of a training program and a start of another wonderful chapter of my love for running. Wish me luck my friends. See you on the road!

I Must have done Something Right

I am absolutely happy.

With so much as a private message, a facebook search and an sms exchange - I am now in contact with three important people in my life. Who would imagine that I would be given this chance to catch up with them and rekindle lost friendships. I am so thankful that I am given this wonderful opportunity to build friendship blocks with each of them again. Not everyone is given this favor and since we are not getting any younger, I hope all of us are "in" this together.

Each friend is different from each other. I am again learning how to adjust to each of them...though I know it wont post so much difficulty since I know we can all pick up where we all left off.

To sum up how I feel now, here is a friendship quote I got from the internet.

'I dont regret the things I have done or the things I have chosen not to do because whatever I've done, I must have done something right because I ended up with you.'

Officially Registered

I am proud to share with everyone that I am now officially registered at the Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore 2011 , Half Marathon, 21.1km

For about 3 months now I have been training for my first half marathon event to be held on August 21 at the Global City. I have experienced different kinds of pain from minimal to worst - perceived and felt and have sacrificed a lot in terms of curbing my diet and thoughts on race day. I have become a better person, yes! I am now more determined, more focused more excited and more prepared to conquer those hills we runners call 'hells'.

Though I won't deny that I still have this doubt if I could really do and stretch myself to run for almost 3 hours. A bit of doubt won't hurt, I guess :)

So for the SCMS 2011 which will be held on December 4th, I will have the time of my life as I tread their beautiful country with so much vivacity and confidence that I will cross the finish line strong and clamoring for more.

Flower Collection Now Available

Flowers signify a lot of meaning, mostly it is always to convey what we feel. Each flower color has also a meaningful story behind its color. It is this reason why each individual is very particular with the flower and color they choose for a bouquet, for floral arrangements and for flower jewelries.

But whatever the color is, the real meaning still lies on what you feel towards the person who gave the flowers to you. The color may add to the beauty of the arrangement, but at the end of the day, only your heart will know what the true meaning of the color of flower you received is.

So come and browse the Collection and choose the best flower color that suits you or your love ones!

2 Days to Go

Two days to go. Two days before TBR Dream Marathon. Two more days of anticipation, preparation, excitement, doubt and drama. Yes, the TBRDM will make every first time marathoner feel all of these sensations. These sensations are just like what my hubby is experiencing right now. Let me share with you what he has to say here.

Good luck Hanebe! You can do it! You have trained so hard for this. You have sacrificed many sleeping hours so that you could be on the road to train. This is it! In two more days it will be your time to shine. Think about your plan of making a PR of -5H. Well, PR or no PR just bring home that beautiful medal for me, okay!

Good luck to all TBR Dream Marathoners! Finish strong and injury free guys!

See you all at the finish line.

So Thankful For

Everyday we have a lot in mind to be thankful for. For one we are always always thankful that we are alive and is still making a difference in this world. No matter how big or small they are...still we are part of that difference.

I am so deeply thankful to two people I call friends. I have been touched by their generous heart and open mindedness. One I met a few years back through a friend who scrapbooks and the other I met only about two years ago through my husband. I do not see them often or communicate with them that much, but when we do correspond, we always feel love and understanding.

Maybe that is how true friendship is. I do not know much about it since I have very very few friends and more of acquaintances. But I am so glad that in this lifetime, I have felt love from these women.

So to Alby and Kate, may we continue to be friends and learn from each other until forever. May both of you be showered with love, happiness and joy throughout your lifetime. May both of you overcome the obstacles in your lives with flying colors. May both of you receive the desires of your heart always. God bless dear friends!

Congratulations Finishers

Last night our very good friend Atty. Julius Cervantes (Life is a Highway) finished one very memorable and historic race, the 3rd Bataan Death March Ulta Marathon. A 102km road race with very few participants (less than 200) and with only 112 of them finishing the 18H cut-off time. Firmly holding the spot of finisher #108, congratulations again Atty J!

The race is not for the faint of heart, only very few people dare to join in since it will definitely challenge not only the physical body but the mind as well. I guess for someone to decide to run that long stretch, he/she must definitely have a sound mind.

To those who finished the recently concluded BDM 102K Ultra Marathon and the BDM 160K the week before, hats off to you guys and gals! You are making history!

First 16KM

Sharing my first 16km journey and the people who inspired me.

My "test of endurance run" was successful. I am now into my second week of the Jeff Galloway
half marathon training for runners and walkers. I have added a few minutes in the weekday runs and added a few kilometers during the long runs. So far so good. I will be celebrating my first 21km race on 12 June 2011.

Condura Run 2011

This coming Sunday, February 6, I will be one of the many Pinoy runners who is given a chance to run and enjoy the Condura Skyway Marathon 2011 . Every runner joining this event will be donating to help the Dolphins of Baclayon, Bohol. How ironic is this since I had a one day trip to Bohol last month and was not able to see the magnificent dolphins. Bad timing, bad me. Any which way, I will have my chance to enjoy the sea beauties when I get back to Cebu and Bohol by next year. I will be running my first 16k which I consider my "test of endurance run" since I plan to graduate running 10k and start preparing for 21k. I hope to cross the finish line injury free and clamoring for more.

I will be sharing full story and details of my 16km journey at The Running Duo the soonest.

To all runners, good luck, have fun and enjoy the Skyway!
