Our China Special Administrative Region (SAR) tour would of course not be complete if we didn’t visit the other SAR, Hong Kong. For our third day, we were up early to temporarily say goodbye to Macau, and say hello to Hong Kong.

First glimpse of Hong Kong
I can remember the times when a runner such as myself can only afford a pedometer as my gadget for running, but these days even heart rate monitor (HRM) watches have gone considerably affordable! To those runners who want to take their training a notch higher without breaking the bank, you may want to look at this HRM watch by Everlast.
I’m not just making this up or saying this figuratively, really did ran with Mr. Piolo Pascual and Coach Rio dela Cruz, literally! This was during this weekend’s Timex Run 2012 which was one of my most memorable and fun races of all time. And oh, the official race results are also out.

A sea of red: at the Time Run 2012 finish line
Do you already have the latest issue of Runner’s World Magazine Philippines? The latest one is a “Marathon Special” and aside from getting the magazine, you also get an arm band to place your gadget when you run—for still the same regular price of ₱150. But I’m actually more interested in that special feature about “Top Running Bloggers.” 
The long wait is over! Global athletic brand, Saucony, is finally here in the Philippines to power up the running experience of Filipino athletes and runners with its latest line of innovative footgear.
The Guam Visitors Bureau (GVB) is inviting professional and amateur triathletes in the Philippines to join in the 2012 XTERRA Guam Championship Off-Road Triathlon. The annual XTERRA Guam race is set for March 10, 2012 and it promises to be the biggest triathlete sporting event in Guam.
Cebu City Marathon 2011 holds my record for my fastest marathon so breaking my course record would also mean a new personal best—what a pressure! On a lighter note, merely completing CCM will finally take me across my first 3,000 kilometers. Will I be able to break my previous record, or will I just break a leg? That’s what went through my mind, and this was what went on with the race.
All set for the race
After running a full marathon you’d expect that we’d just stay in our rooms to rest, but no way! We’re in Macau in some very cool, nice weather so rest will have to wait! Here’s where our feet took us some time after our races.

Kinvara 2
One of my most eagerly awaited event to jumpstart my year has arrived, the Cebu City Marathon. Flying in on a Saturday afternoon gave me just enough time to claim my kit, do my last grocery shopping, and eat all I can—wait, uhm, yeah, eat all I can!
Departing from NAIA Terminal 3: We used the sky bridge which led us down to a bus: “Riding a bus. More fun in the Philippines.”
Thank you for visiting!
