Hooray to 2 years of Fun!

As mentioned in some previous posts, I started running in Feb of 2010. I started running along the hard pavements of Fort Bonifacio in Taguig City, PH. My first race was a 3k fun run and from then on, after numerous 5ks and 10ks, a handful pikermis, 3 marathons and 4 ultramarathons, I am still chasing pavements. Well, there were months of being sidelined like when I was in Angola for two months and days when I just felt so lazy to get up and go for a run. But since this year started, there hasn't been any week when I haven't done any run. I bet my groove has come back now. For good. 

To keep up with the momentum, I have some races lined up in some of the best places on earth. Lol. 

As there was no event that interested me here in Malaysia, I joined a group of runners in Singapore called I.M.D. Running headed by Ben Swee for their training for Bali Marathon. We ran in MacRitchie Reservoir Park. I can say running by the dam is a wonderful experience. We did 22kms and I finished it in around 2:30. Can't really tell exactly since I forgot to charge my Garmin. I had a great time running with some of Singapore's best and looking forward to running SG"s roads again. 

Cheers to two years of running!
