Run, Choose and Survive at the Most Exciting Outbreak Yet
by Cheryl Villareal on Oct 9th, 2013
Last October 4, 2013, Outbreak Missions gave 1,200 participants an experience they will never forget. For that evening, Filinvest City was transformed into a zombie-infested maze of challenges, special characters, and clues that looked like scenes out of a horror movie. This time, survival is not just about running— it’s about making choices. Participants walked, ran, and screamed with a goal in sight: to find a rumored cure to the zombie out...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

by Cheryl Villareal on Sep 11th, 2013
A few weeks before race date, our school directress informed me of an upcoming run called I Run for Life which as organized for the benefit of children with Leukemia. I’m a sucker for runs especially if it’s for a good cause so I immediately searched the internet for more information on the run.

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 )

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 )

Indoor Duathlon Experience at Fitness and Athletics
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 4th, 2013
About a month ago, I was walking by the Fort to claim a race kit for an upcoming run when I ran into Ms. Arleen Lindo of Chris Sports right outside Fitness and Athletics. She invited me in to check out a participant who was in the middle of his indoor duathlon. She then invited me to give it a try myself. I was very curious and definitely interested but at the same time I was telling myself, “You don’t bike! How would you do this!” ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (11 )

by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 21st, 2013
I remember back when I was just in my beginning years of running, my boyfriend told me of this cool run where runners would be given a chance to personalize their singlets. Apparently, this run was organized by a website called Takbo.ph. Registrations started and ended as early as May for a run that was happening in July. I was amongst the lucky ones who found out about it in time. Little did I know, I was becoming part of history! Takbo.ph Runf...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

Run Against Cancer Results and Discussions
by Cheryl Villareal on Apr 27th, 2013
I love running and I most especially love running for a cause. About a month ago, a friend informed me about a fun run called “Run against Cancer” which was being organized for the benefit of indigent cancer patients. I knew I couldn’t miss out on this opportunity. Amidst security jitters following the Boston Marathon bombing, Run Against Cancer charity run successfully pushed through as planned on April 20, 2013 at the Bonifac...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )
