my Condura run that never was

it all started with “my next long one would be the condura run.” even had a press release among friends that i was thinking whether to run the full or the half.  since i was still riding the high of the Singapore full, i decided to just run the half.  but this one-year running veteran forgot to register.  in fact, i totally forgot when the run was going to be until a friend asked me if i’m running.  so i decided to do the next best thing: run bandit! never thought i’d ever do it but there’s always a first time.

and so saturday night, like always, i prepared my gear.  i had everything ready:  shorts, singlet, socks, shoes, garmin, gatorade.  went to bed with a smile on my lips anticipating another one helluva run when i wake up.  i did wake up with the sunshine filtering through the venetian blinds on my window.  nice… i forgot to set my alarm and so i woke up at 8am.  wonderful… so much for being ready.

i wonder if the dolphins missed me?

long time no run

it’s been a long time.  i ran the singapore marathon in december and it’s been downhill from there. from 42K to zero.  well, not really zero, if you count running from creditors and credit card collectors.

but it’s all in the past. i have started running again. pa-10K 10K muna around the village.  baka mabigla eh.  maybe i’ll do this 10K phase for a couple of weeks and then sabak na ulit sa half marathons like before.

i also promised myself i’ll start blogging again.  knowing me, though, i don’t know which one will go the distance:  the running or the blogging.
