Safeguard 2XU Run Race Results and Experiences
by Cheryl Villareal on Sep 9th, 2013
I first heard of the Safeguard 2XU Run early this year. It sounded very promising and the freebies were enticing. Some people thought that the registration fee was too high, but personally, I thought the fee was just right, given the amount of freebies. I mean, just the 2xu calf guards were already enough! Moreover, it’s a RunRio organized race. I no longer question Rio’s expertise in the field of running. If he organized it, it’s bound to ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

I Run for Life: A Run for Children with Leukemia
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 24th, 2013
It’s always fun to run for a cause, especially when it’s for those who need our help the most. They say we should use whatever gifts we have to help others. Well, God gave me legs to walk and run, I think I should use them. What about you?

Avon Kiss Goodbye to Breast Cancer (KGBC) Manila Run: Do Something Beautiful Today
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 12th, 2013
They say that 1 out of 8 women in the world today suffer from breast cancer as if it were as easy to get it as the common cold. Sadly, it still remains the top killer for Filipino women up to this very day, what’s worse is that several of our public hospitals are not yet 100% ready to battle the condition. Simply knowing these facts won’t really change anything, but concrete action towards better prevention, treatment and support in whatever...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Tevasphere Speed Conquers the Muddy Terrain of Eartheaven San Mateo Rizal
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 9th, 2013
Trail running is very different from running on pavement. Trails can range from easy, which refer to those flat trails that are solid like pavement to extremely difficult like the one we experienced at the Teva Trail Challenge. More on that HERE. Selecting the right pair of shoes for each surface is another challenge athletes need to take. It’s important to wear the right shoes not only to ease the race for you but also to ensure s...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Teva Trail Challenge: Surviving a 5k Run, Hike and Swim with my TevaSphere Shoes
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 9th, 2013
I’ve been getting invites to join trail runs for the longest time but I never really joined any mainly for 2 reasons: One, I didn’t have any trail shoes and two, I didn’t have any transportation. The only trail run I joined was a short trail run in Filinvest Alabang. Blog on that HERE. Last July 28, while most runners prepared for the historical Milo run, I was preparing for my first trail run in San Mateo Rizal. Everything was set...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )
