My new passion: RUNNING
>> Monday, May 7
Hey hey! Today is Monday and I’ve
got no work load to resist. Last week was too eventful and demanding - had to
get a design done (MAIBARARA GEOTHERMAL) you know, Engineering stuffs; prepared
for TINTIN's departure, a life changing moment and a lot more definitions of
my life.
When she left, I was left with unfilled
calendars and I find that depressing –
No more dinner dates, no movies,
no journeys. JUST WORK.
Providentially, I’m an Engineer educated
to calculate conclusions. I had my PRIMAVERA class last January that taught me
my planning ability, utilizing this gave me something to fill into my porous
time.
I PLANNED to RUN!
My appetite for running was given
by my 1st RUN last April. That was my company’s (EEI CORPORATION)
ANNIV FUN RUN held at Makati. I registered for 10K but completed only 5K with a
lot of walk contamination..and slow pacing. Being behind the race got me
determined to excel in running.
I then googled for FUN RUNS and most links
directed me to WWW.TAKBO.PH. There I found a
list of RUNS with corresponding dates, forums and running tips. Suddenly I
found myself engaging to comment threads and finally registered to one of the
run listed – 1st AmCham Run for Scholar. Their purpose is to raise funds for 50
scholars for 2012. I joined the 3K run for P500.
In preparation for this, last
Wednesday night (May 2, 2012) I ran around UP oval and roughly completed almost 5K
(with a running buddy PAUL BAUDIN).. We don’t know exactly about 6 rounds. HAHA. I’m
thinking of training tomorrow alone, unless somebody’s willing to join me.
I’m still eyeing for other run
events, these are those;
May
19 - MEDIRun
2012 100m/3/5/10K (BGC) Get
FREE check-up vouchers and a 4GB USB Drive. Register Now.
The best things you get from
joining runs are the fact that most of them are for a good cause AND you get to have
and collect singlets and race kits AND that’s healthy J
Just in case someone out there wishes for a running buddy, I’m willing to be one. Just email me at geloagi@yahoo.com or text me: 09166928808
