Run United Goes Regional!
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 9th, 2011
Most of famous and good runs are set at the Fort or in MOA, there are only very few that are set in other places or out of town and the RunRio team decided to change all that! Now, our friends from the different provinces no longer need to drive to Manila to join a run, it's our turn to drive out for a vacation! The main objective of this event is to promote running to Filipinos and to allow each one to experience RunRio events in Re...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Barefoot Running, Running in the Rain… Let’s get it ON!
by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 25th, 2011
I love to run though I didn't always. In fact, I just joined fun runs because I felt that it would at least give me a little exercise and help me stay healthy. But just this summer, I began making it a habit and tried running at least 3 times every week! It's a lot of fun when you have friends to join you, and I thank my friend Ivica Say for always running with me regardless of our busy work schedules! - They say running shoes are meant to ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

Register for your Next Run Hassle Free with Runners’ Runner
by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 19th, 2011
Every week there's a fun run somewhere in the Philippines. Almost every other week, there's a big event or big marathon that all runners look forward to. Every runner wants to register for a race or two every month, but not every runner lives near Fort Bonifacio or other registration outlets. I remember having to pass by a mall or R.O.X. almost every other week because I wanted to register for a good run. It was out of my way, but I had to go bef...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 18th, 2011
RunRio organized races are always something to look forward to! The runs are always well organized with maybe just a few forgivable mistakes that can easily be overlooked.

Run on the Rugged Side at the Merrel Adventure Run
by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 8th, 2011
REGISTRATION EXTENDED!!! REGISTRATION EXTENDED!!! - Are you man I've been running for a while and one thing I look forward to when joining fun runs is the venue. Just like a lot of my friends, we are curious to try new running venues just for the thrill of it. However, regardless if the run is set in Bonifacio Global City, Mall of Asia, Luneta or the like, they're all still the same. The view and route varies but the running conditions a...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

My first REAL 10km run at AKTV Fun Run
by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 6th, 2011
A lot of the runners or followers I meet automatically assume that since I'm a blogger, I must also run half or full marathons. I am often greeted with shocked reactions when I tell them the farthest distance I've gone is only 10km. What's worse is that I've only done the 10km twice and never again because I was afraid to fail! It's true that I've been running for a LONG time, but I never found the courage to step out of my comfort zone until rec...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

End Hunger: Walk the World (My Barefoot Experience!)
by Cheryl Villareal on May 29th, 2011
Around June last year, the first ever Walk the World Philippines was held at MOA. I enjoyed the event because it was clear with its goal to just walk 1 km or run a short distance and be part in helping to put an end to world hunger. Last year there was a band playing near the starting/finish line, there were several people wearing costumes and body paint as representatives from different provinces, there were mascots, and so much more! It really ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

by Cheryl Villareal on May 22nd, 2011
What IS Phiten anyway? Last week, I was invited to the Phiten product launch for media and bloggers. Unfortunately, it was scheduled on the same date as another event and I was unable to catch up. Either way, I have heard a lot of good things about the brand and would like to share it with the readers as well... especially my fellow runners. - What is Phiten?
