Run to Read: Results of my first 10km run
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 17th, 2010
Last Aug. 15, I ran my first 10k marathon! I originally wanted to sign up for the 5k run (as I always do) but unfortunately, I was told that there were no more slots! Hence, my fiancè took it a challenge and registered us both for the 10k run! My initial reaction: "OMG?! WTF! I'm gonna die!" And of course, he had to slap me back to sanity!.... but seriously, I was nervous. . The PRE-RUN Philippe (my fiancè) and I registered for the run...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Run for a Cause this August!
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 1st, 2010
There are several fun runs to look forward to this month of August! As for me, I try to make it a habit of joining at least 2 fun runs every month! I would join more but I don't have enough money to spend too much! I'll try to upload a list of races per month as soon as I can, for the meantime however, you can also try checking out takbo.ph This August, I decided to join 2 fun runs.

Miles for Smiles: Running for a Difference
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 24th, 2010
Just a few weeks ago, I was surfing the net looking for a run for this coming August. There were two fun runs that I was eying. Unsure though which I wanted to join. 2 weeks ago during the Robinson's Fit and Fun Buddy Run, I was handed a flier for the Miles for Smiles fun run. I started reading and slowly it gained my interest. I spotted a category for groups. I never tried running in a group, but this run made me want to try it!

Robinson’s Fit and Fun Buddy Run
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 13th, 2010
Last July 11, I ran in the 3rd Fit and Fun Buddy Run sponsored by Robinsons. I was really really sleepy and actually woke up an hour after my alarm cluck rung! So I tried to take a shower in the quickest way possible and took a cab to the fort, arriving only 5minutes before gun start! haha The thing that makes the BUDDY RUN different from the others is that you have to start with your buddy and end with your buddy. My buddy being of course my ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

On the Run…
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 11th, 2010
I started running around 1 year ago because of my fiance. His office mates run in particular events just for the fun of it. One Sunday, he invited me to join them. That Sunday, I ran 5 kilometers for more than an hour! Oh wait, let me rephrase... I ran 1 km and walked 4 km for more than an hour! ha! Here's the thing with running, you have to set goals. On my first run, I ran for more than an hour. I promised myself I'd be faster on my next run. ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )
