Pinoy Fitness SUB-1 10K Challenge on September 22, 2013

Pinoy Fitness Run for Change, Dec 16, 2012

Hi guys!

As an obvious fan of Pinoy Fitness, I am already registered for their upcoming event on September 22, 2013,  the Pinoy Fitness Sub1 10K Challenge!

I see myself as more of an endurance or distance runner as I have done several full marathons and ultra marathons but doing 10K in below 1hr time is still a challenge.

I remember to have done two (2) 10K's with under 1hr finish time, first was last November 2012 at the 2nd Michelle Estuar Fund Racing and then during the Pinoy Fitnes Run for Change last December 16, 2012.

My finish time for both event was 58mins and 56mins respectively.

See you on the road and on September 22!!

~Below are more details of the event from Pinoy Fitness website.

Here it is guys! Details for the Pinoy Fitness SUB-1 Challenge is out! Are you fit enough to finish a 10K under 1 hour? Join us on September 22, 2013 in BGC!

Hyundai Run for a Cause - FREE Fun Run on April 29, 2012

Hi everyone!

Hyundai will be again making HISTORY for the second time around. Last year they offered the only FREE Fun Run in the country with race singlets and timing chips, with a lot of photographers!

It is good that they scheduled this year's run on a Sunday compared to last year which was on a Saturday. This time I registered for the 10K category with the chosen beneficiary of Environmental Sustainability.

And hola! In just two days time, it seems they already hit their runners quota, but a lot of runners are still asking for the extension of registration. This year the organizers are expecting more than 25,000 runners, higher than the turn-around last year of more than 24,000 runners!

See you on the road guys!

Michelle Estuar's FUNd Racing @ ULTRA - Race Day Pics

This morning, November 30, 2011, some 1,000 runners gathered for the Michelle Estuar's FUNd Racing held at ULTRA, Pasig. It was a new route for me running at Ortigas Center and the 2 loops of Meralco Flyover. And the challenge ended with another elevation at the St. Paul Road and another last hike inside the ULTRA compound few meters before the finish line at the oval.

But despite of the route elevations, I managed to set a new PR for 10K, unofficially my finish time is 58 minutes which is my first sub 60 finish! Thanks to my pacermate from ARC (I forgot to get his name - next time at ARC will surely get his name :-)

It was also great to meet a lot of new Pinoy Fitness.com peeps like Goldy, Pissed off Chick, BratinELLA, Kukai, Joy_c, Elvin, JC, Allan and of course for the second time I got to meet and have longer time to chat with Roxanne and the always present Ms_Mars.

See you on the road guys! And Happy Birthday to Michelle Estuar!

Michelle Estuar's FUNd Racing @ ULTRA - My Race Bib

Last Thursday, November 24, 2011, I registered for the Michelle Estuar's FUNd Racing at the ARC store before the usual Thursday Fun Run.

The race will be on November 30th, it is a regular holiday in the Philippines so I will be free to join this event. I signed up for 10K run, actually this is just my third official 10K run as I have done more 21K's than shorter distance events.

My first 10K was at the QCIM2 last December 2010 and my second 10K was at the Nike We Run Manila last October 2011. After my first 10K last year, I jumped into 21K (half marathon) last February 2011 at the Condura Skyway Marathon and have done seven official 21K's excluding LSD's and my 32K last November 13 at the Run United 3.

Officially, this 10K run will be my last run prior to my first full marathon on December 4 at the Quezon City International Marathon.

Nike We Run Manila 10K Race Night Pics

Yesterday at 5PM, the Nike We Run Manila 10K was held at the Fort Bonifacio Global City. The activity venue was transferred at the 34th Street, well BGC is already becoming congested of new buildings and a lot of construction on-going.

The area was full of reddish orange due to the strict implementation of wearing the provided Nike Running tee. It was a nice race in general with a lot of hydration and music,(free concert at the post-race event) but there are also negative feedback such as the congested race route, unlighted route, nightmare at the baggage counter (it was great that we did not leave our things there) and the failed promise of the finishers award upon crossing the line among others.

In a positive note, I am happy to meet a fellow Pinoy Fitness runner and a frequent chat mate at the PF forum, Roxanne, you can visit her blog by clicking HERE. Thank you for the NB voucher! At last I will be having an NB shoes :-)

Lastly, here are some of our pics during the race. More pics in my FB account or click HERE.
