Soleus Run for the Aspins: A Fund Raising Awareness Against Dog Cruelty and Abuse
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 28th, 2015
I’m an animal lover, I’ve always love all kinds of animas since I was young. If only I had enough funds, I would want to put up a no-kill shelter and save our animals from being hurt or abused. It just pains me to see how heartless some people can be that they choose to hurt and abuse helpless little animals. This October, Soleus is putting together a run to help raise awareness and funds to victims of animal abuse. The Soleus Run for t...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Greenfield City Run: Run for Generations 2015
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 16th, 2015
My first 5km run was back in 2009 in the Greenfield City Clean Air Run! I remember thinking to myself, “why on earth did I agree to run?!” Despite my constant complaints to my partner, I was really happy with the route. More than just the feel of nature surrounding me, it was really nice to run in a place with so little cars. Little did I know that this was the start of my love for running. On its 9th year, Greenfield once again brings run...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

8th Robinson’s Fit & Fun Wellness Buddy Run: Getting Healthy in Pairs
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 8th, 2015
I’ve been joining the Robinsons’s Fit & Fun Wellness Buddy Run for quite some time now. I’ve always enjoyed this run mostly because of the idea that you have to start and finish with your partner. The idea is pretty simple, but makes everything all the more fun. Last July 5, thousands, including CEOs and celebrities ran in pairs for the 8th Robinson’s Supermarket Fit & Fun Wellness Buddy Run held in Bonifacio Global City Taguig....Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Primal Ape Crossfit: Big Box for Big Results
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 2nd, 2015
A couple months ago, I started hearing about this cool new crossfit gym in Makati. My friend had just started working out there and highly recommended it. However, since I never tried crossfit, I was hesitant to try it out. I’m sure glad I changed my mind. Primal Ape Crossfit is located along Chino Roces Ave. in Makati. Outside, it still looks very small as construction around it is still ongoing. However, upon stepping in, you’d be amazed...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Since it started with the Battle of the Sexes last 2012, the Sofitel Manila runs had quickly become a race most people would look forward to. It is not only fun and organized, but it’s a race for a cause too – one factor I feel is very important when choosing races. Last year, Sofitel Philippine Plaza held its first half marathon.

Exploring Phuket with the 7-Eleven Run 1500 Champions
by Cheryl Villareal on Jun 11th, 2015
When companies or groups award someone with an all expense paid trip to a certain place, I always just assumed that they’d just hand over the cash or certificates and their role was done. Boy was I wrong… well, at least for the case of 7-eleven. As mentioned in my previous entry, 7-eleven has had a total of 3 runs in the past years where they award the top 3 males/females from the 21k and 42k categories with a slot to an upcoming internati...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )
