Whirlwind Weekend Part 2: White Rock Tri

I woke up at 3 to make sure I made it before the swim start of the White Rock Triathlon in Zambales.  David, Tyrone, and Paolo had been training for this race and needed moral support.  My friends and former teammates George and Noel were topseeds too.  I was confident that they would do well but I guess I was too excited for them not to be there and see it for myself.

Patricia, Honey, and Ginny along with Aldrin, Sophia, Eric, Tupe, Rex, and Aris completed the support crew.  As expected they were amazing (whew!) and happy smiles were exchanged as they crossed the finish lines with PBs.

George and Noel were 1st and 2nd in the men’s race and Amanda, Fiona, and Laarni were the podium placers in the women’s race.

Congratulations everyone!!!

Whirlwind Weekend Part 1: Kulay at Kislap 3 Exhibit, LIKHA DIWA

My sister Sinag and my niece Raya opened their third Mother-Daughter Exhibit entitled KULAY AT KISLAP 3 on Nov 6, Friday at Likha Diwa Cafe in U.P. Diliman Quezon City. It is a good collection of mixed media work…I bought a couple of pieces myself! Exhibit will be ongoing till the end of the month.

My brother and his musical group, MAKILING, performed and delivered the goods as always.  I’m very happy to be part of such an artistic family 🙂

TIMEX RUN 2009 UPDATE

Hello Timex Runners! With the holidays fast approaching, more and more events are being scheduled in Bonifacio Global City. Based on our recent meeting with Fort Bonifacio Development Corporation, we have been advised that fun run events scheduled in the next coming months will have to be slightly relocated in order to accommodate other events. In line with this, we would like to inform everyone that there will be some minor changes with regards to the location of the start/finish area and the 3km race route of the 2009 Timex Run. Please take note that the start/finish area has been moved from 8th Avenue to 28th Avenue. This is the same set up as the Adidas King of the Road held last October 25. Rest assured that although there will be some rerouting with regards to the 3km race route, this minor adjustment will not greatly affect that of the other distances. To view the updated route maps for 3km, 5km, 10km, and 21km, please visit http://www.runrio.com. Our apologies for any inconvenience this might cause. Thank you for your kind understanding. Sincerely, Coach Rio
