by Cheryl Villareal on Jan 4th, 2015
Yes, the title DOES say anti-gravity! When I was first invited to try out this new trend, I was both doubtful and excited. Doubtful ‘coz I really had no idea what to expect and was sort of thinking, “how can a treadmill be effective if there’s no gravity to work on?” and “seriously? anti-gravity? weh?” (haha) Then again, I was excited ‘coz of exactly that… ANTI-GRAVITY? This I gotta see! Last week, I visited Kinetics Advance Ph...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Run United HP Recovery Run for Run United 2014 Finishers this December 2014
by Cheryl Villareal on Nov 16th, 2014
When we think of running or working out in general, we often think of different ways we can go further and get stronger. We often think that all we need is a little push and strength of mind.

This year, Run United got runners to go longer, faster and stronger with the 3 RU installments. With every run, the organizers i...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

adidas Boost: What Boosts Your Run? (Video)
by Cheryl Villareal on Oct 16th, 2014
The adidas Boost was first release sometime last year, 2013. Back then, they only had 1 color to choose from. I was happy the shoes I had at that time and paid little attention to this new line. However, my fiancé Philippe had just gotten back into running and decided to give these shoes a try. He was so happy with the shoes that he would constantly tell me about his runs - how the shoes made his landing softer, how he felt lighter with them, et...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )
