As everyone else in the world seems to be joining the blogging bandwagon, we thought ... hmmm ... so why shoudn't we? Just because we're not "techie" people and we have the attention span of a hyperactive squirrel who just discovered a cave-ful of walnuts ... plus I have to admit it was a struggle to even get going with this page since we're a bit resistant to electronic change.

But on the positive side, our collective experiences in life could actually be entertaining, helpful and perhaps enlightening (?) to others. Although enlightenment might be too much to aim for - hahaha. So we hope you enjoy reading our blogs on various spontaneous topics as much as we enjoy putting them together. Watch out, world! :D

RUN UNITED 2 - The Fort (20 November 2010)

Went to the run at The Fort very early this morning.  The event was uber successful as there were so many runners who showed up.  We heard there were 10,000 registrants for today (3k, 10k and 21k) and another 10,000 for tomorrow (5k and 42k).


The event was impressive and well-organized.  The race per category started on time, complete with warm ups from Fitness First instructors, the route was seamless, the roads were closed and there were road marshalls on each stop to make sure that the runners kept to their route.  


There were plenty of booths and they even have an activity area for kids, a separate area for seniors, as well as a massage tent.   From the contents of the loot bag alone, the fee paid for registration was so well worth it already.  

Kudos to Unilab and Coach Rio dela Cruz for mounting such a hugely successful event.  Our rating?  Excellent!
