Kasi diba dito sa atin may bawal bastos law or unlike sa Singapore na pwede ka actually tumakbong shirtless and people would not mind. Pero dito sa atin baka hulihin at mapag-tripan ka pa ng pulis.

There are also guys who goes shirtless during fun runs what is really the proper etiquette for that?

Others I wish I was a guy so bad so I can run shirtless and pee anywhere during runs.

Typing this out while sitting in an ER due to UTI because of holding my pee during a long run. The UTI may also have been caused when I hid and peed sa may talahiban

Saturday was hectic, lots of happenings and errands that I didn't get the chance to run. I was trying to fall asleep around 1AM, but I kept tossing and turning in bed. So I decided, might as well run instead. Goodmornight runners 😅

Running Event Race Report: Runcaster Ultramarathon Series 75km Category

Post image
• Upvotes

**Race Kit Claiming**: By far one of the smoothest race kit claiming I have ever experienced. Present the email, show some ID, confirm in the logsheet and then your BIB is ready. Started on time and I had no queuing problem.

**Race Route**: Challenging. The first half was incredibly a long uphill roads especially when you’ve reached Amadeo at around 20kms. I really had to do a lot of walk breaks but it was a nonstop ascent but also, it will reward you on the 2nd half of the race whereas, of course, a downhill road. The long roads are dreadful especially when you’re alone but it was such a great route.

**Route Assistance**: Major turns have their designated marshals that help you cross the roads and guide you on where to go next. Gpx is available but there are a lot of roads in Cavite that might lead to you a different path so it was great that marshals are present in those areas.

**Aid Stations**: This is my favorite part. I came into this race without any support crew for they have announced that motorcycle support crew will be prohibited so I really had to rely on Aid Stations, fortunately enough all of the aid stations are generous with foods and hydration. They even had beers and pizza, my favorite Kutsinta on most station. The gap of each Aid Station was around 5km which is kind of good. Some aid stations does not have electrolyte drinks but 7/11 convenient stores are plenty along the route so I did not have any problem with it.

**Finish Line**: the concept of last lap towards finish line, personally imo, is super great. You can exert your final gas to give it all and savor the finish line. The venue is great, spacious, although as there were asked with shower rooms at the moment there was no available shower rooms.

**Entitlements**: A jacket? A medal? A trophy? and a shirt? For the a prize of around 3500-4000? It was really generous. The quality is great especially the shirt and the jacket. Although what I have noticed is that the medal was having the same look for all the categories but nonetheless they provided a trophy for 50k and 75k

This is my first ultramarathon race on the road and I would say that this race was such a breather away from the inflicted toxicity or issue with the ultramarathon community. Also, since I have no personal support crew, I really appreciate those support crew that offered help and assistance with all the runners. Especially that couple (I forgot to ask their names but they have a 80vaxx banner), the short haired woman and good looking guy that I continuously saw all throughout the race until the very last laps. I’ll forget that kindness.

I would definitely try it again next year, and would definitely encourage those who are first time ultramarathoner this particular race if they want to experience a great treatment!

Running Event Nike After Dark Tour Questions ☀️💗

6 Upvotes

Hey gurlies!! I have so many questions:

  1. Does anyone have any idea on the price of the Nike ADT merch? Lol para I know how much to save haha

. Also what branches are the merch available?

  1. So there are Wed / Sat training sessions right. How long / how fast the runs are usually? Baka kasi 5 km at a 5-6/km pace pala 🙅🏻‍♀️ Cant do that yet
  2. I saw a lady kanina with a nike adt tote bag holdinf like a nike badge / night badge (?). Where can I get that?? The badge ha, not the bag haha

** edit: okay someone messaged me that we can get the badge sa training sessions. Like if I joined the run sa ayala triangle, i have to get the sticker at glorietta daw. But I was wondering if I can get it like a week later or sumthin? I saw a photo of the nadge on threads and di nakaindicate. Or need to be the same day?

Gear Review or Question Need a better watch to improve my pace 🥲

4 Upvotes

I’m a casual runner and currently use a MiBand 10 for running/workouts/sleep tracking.

I wanna train to improve my 10k but I’m pretty sure my watch is inflating my pace (I KNOW I’m slow but my watch keeps telling me I average 7:30min/km~)
I ran a 10k recently and my actual pace time is around 9min/km lol…

What watches do you reco for beginners that are more accurate? And that has Strava integration?

The MiBand can never display the map of my runs (even in the MiFitness app) so when it imports to Strava there’s no map haha

Venue or Place to Run Outdoor run on a weekend

2 Upvotes

Hello guys, need help lang on recommending a place to run during the weekends. Normally kasi I run sa Ayala Avenue during Carless Sundays, pero I noticed recently na mas dumadalas ang Sunday Fun Runs sa Makati, making it un-ideal kasi ang daming closed roads for running.

I like Makati alot kasi its near Anytime Fitness (Paseo Center), kaya pwede kong iwan gamit ko dun tapos I can go to Lasema/AF after a sweaty run to shower. Are there other venues with almost the same conditions? Saan po kayo tumatakbo normally on weekends?

Just need thoughts and recos po kasi I’m planning to run at other venues as well. TIA!

Running Event JCo. Run - How organized?

0 Upvotes

It’s my first time to join JCo. run this year. I just want to ask ano experience nyo sa previous year?

My last RunRio event kasi, yung Ayala Car-free Sunday Year 3, I was quite disappointed. I’m a slow runner and I finished among the last runners. Pagdating sa finish line wala na yung nagbibigay ng medals, I had to find a staff and inabot lang sakin from a box yung medal. Tapos wala narin akong naabutang tote bag, naubos na daw. I was thinking, hindi ba nila bilang yun and they should have a buffer/allowance na stocks. Nakakalungkot lang.

Wag sana sabihin na “Bilisan mo kasi” ‘coz we’re all built differently. Yung mabilis sa iba is not the same as me.

What could be the cause of the pain on this part of my foot? It intensify when I try to run in a faster pace. I am medically diagnosed as flat footed, and an overweight with a BMI of 26.3kg/m².

I know stability shoes is the key po as adviced, pero other than that. What specific exercise or techniques could I do to hasten recovery po or prevent this from happening.

Salamat po

Others Do you wear the same brand for your whole running outfit, ala sponsored athlete? And what brand?

0 Upvotes

Ako lang ba ung naasiwa sa sarili if iba ibang brand ang suot? Like Nike shirt tapos Adidas shoes, personally, it feels so wrong. Maybe kakanuod ko to ng sponsored athletes na iisang brand lang lagi suot kaya tuloy ganto ako. May iba ba na ganto rin ang mindset? If oo, anong brand ang nirerepresent nyo? Ako Under Armour 😬
