_finish_line_burst



i really get a sudden rush of energy (what's actually left of it) when i'm within 200m from the finish line of a race. i even shout to the other walkers "push na! push!" considering that they would have to run just a wee bit more.

i gasp for air with less than 50m while keeping my crazy pace.


it's like i don't give a damn if i lose my breath or collapse once i reach the checkered flag saying to myself, "never mind if there's no water or anything after the finish, somebody will eventually help you when you collapse & lose your consciousness." :P

_motorists_should_avoid_the_fort_on_saturday

as a fellow Filipino motorist, i understand how drivers would want to avoid heavy traffic during the morning & evening rush hours. yes, yes, it's traffic everywhere but this one is going to be extra special.

this saturday evening, please avoid plowing through the fort. i don't know how the organizers managed to close these roads for runners participating in the urbanite run, but they did a hell of a job with the routes. i was expecting loops within the fort near bhs, but nooooo...they decided to take over bayani road & mckinley park. :)


this is the 10k map that i'm running...my 2nd 10k and i'm ambitiously aiming for a sub-60 despite lack of training. hey, they say it's better to undertrain than overtrain...we'll see.

like i said, please avoid driving through the fort on saturday unless you're a glutton for heavy traffic. :P

good luck to all the racers! :)
