- I am a Bicolano by birth and choice. By any standards, I am a slow runner but I like it that way. I look at running as a healthy and exciting way to make a difference. Together with my fellow runners from our family, school, office, and the community, we use running to give back.
WHAT BRAND OF RUNNING SHOES WILL I BUY FOR MY NEW PAIR?
For one year now, I have exclusively been using Asics running shoes, the Cumulus to be specific, for my running. To my mind, Asics provides the best in cushioning. And for long distances beyond 42 kms, a generous amount of cushioning is an ultra runner’s best friend.
DO I NEED A NEW PAIR OF RUNNING SHOES?
For the past 12 months, the Bicolano Penguin has purchased or been given 4 new pairs of running shoes : a pair of Asics Cumulus 12 (purchased from A Runner’s Circle), two pairs of Asics Cumulus 13 (gifted by my sister for my birthday and by my wife as a X’mas present), and a pair of Asics GT 2160 (pasalubong from my sister-in-law).
2nd INTEGRITY RUN: Running For Integrity Towards a New Philippines
Thousands of runners of various shapes, sizes, color and age, joined the 2nd Integrity Run this May 6, 2012 at the Bonifacio Global City. This fun run against corruption is an annual endeavor of the Makati Business Club (MBC) and the European Chamber of Commerce of Philippines (ECCP). It is part of the Integrity Initiative which is a private sector-led campaign that aims to promote common ethical standards among various sectors of society. It operates on the principle of inclusion and collective action.
Father and Son at the Village Pool
In the midst of
these hot days of summer (the scientific folks at PAGASA would not yet call it
“heat wave”), what should the Bicolano Penguin do? Answer:
Go back to where he came from.
But Bicol is hot and more humid while Antartica is many many many miles
and dollars away. Stupid me.
