our 33rd Milo Marathon experience

yesterday was a different Sunday for us, it’s our debut to the biggest running event happening nationwide – the 33rd Milo Marathon. we were already awake few more minutes before 4:00am and were already driving to km zero by 4:30am. our 5k dash will officially starts by 5:30am so we need to be at the queuing area at least 15mins. we arrived earlier and were amazed on the big crowd of runners joining this event. people from all walks of life patiently wait --professionals, families, students, kids and dogs. so all the while we thought it would only be our Bea who would be joining the race, we were off beam.

3K and 10K runners

5K runners, the most numbered!

the running event by the way started at 4:30am for the 42km runners so at 5:30am the 10k batch goes first followed by the 3k all kiddies batch, then the 5k batch that made the big number of runners. Oliver run ahead of us with his team from P&G while Bea & i shortly followed with our jog and walk rhythm. most of the participants of the 5k run does the same rhythm we did basically because we are not after the medal or the cash or the fame – it’s all because of the fun walking with lotsa people, let me recall that this is a Fun Run so no big competition fellas! If anyone wants to compete, then join the 42k :)

Oliver finished the race within the 1hour time frame so he got his certificate while Bea and i half finished the race. Bea was such a crowd favorite, and lots of people took photo of her and some even pose with hers. she loves to be in limelight and her instant star status yesterday. i hope she will make it this year to the Great Dog Dash happening sometime in September.

Bea and Dadi after the race

posers as usual :)

we were about to go home when we bumped to this black lab we earlier seen at the race, seems he likes my girl...wink** wink**

flirting!

after battling with traffic for one and half hour we dined at Burger's King in MOA, and our Bea had a whooper sandwich and a scoop of ice cream. it was a weekend blast!

teaching her how eat ice cream


we are now looking forward in doing this running activity every Sunday, hopefully join the Globe Run for Home on July 19.




friday eat out

friday night was over some chinese cooking at our fave eating place, North Park of course! instead of dining at P. Guevarra St. or at the nearby Makati Ave branch we drive all the way to Fort Bonifacio, that's how picky we are :)

the set we have was the usual hotpot dish, spring rolls and double pork rib (which is new to our set). the double pork rib did not disappointment me except that i would prefer pairing it with a red vinegar instead of the thick sauce which was served to us. personally, i like the Market Market branch because of the ambiance and service. the crew would even greet you "ni hao" and say "xie xie" (pronounced as sheh sheh) after your savory dining experience.

i love the "push button to call server" stuff they put on table top

we thought of coffee after dinner so we walk towards Boni High but decided not to have one and decided to call the night and drive home. i took this photo because i felt serenity inspite of the city life we chose.

lovin' this life!

Happy Birthday Inday!

wella, wella, Inday is not anybody's househelper or errand girl. she is my Tita Bebot and Kuya Romy's unica hija --the prettiest of them all (of course!). and was named after a bath soap by her dear mama, remember Irish Spring? her name is Irish less the Spring...hehehe. and she is one of my maternal cousins whom I am close to up to this very day! Inday, ang kape namin sa katapusan :)

happy 25th birthday! and may you find happiness of the heart ... collect and select!

head turner yan! spinning pa :)

countdown (???)

5 days to go na lang!

day trip...

normally we drive south during late nights or early mornings but since we have plenty of errands last Saturday morning we have no choice but (again..) to drive around 3pm when traffic was all over the stretch of Aguinaldo Highway. it sucks to be stucked in traffic for at least an hour so another 2 hours is deadly. waaah! so i got my cam and shoot anything that captured my attention, did some online reading (thanks to smartbro) too and log in to facebook and stalked LL!

well, Bea and Dadi looks flat and hungry at this time.

Bea on Dad: i'm sleepy & hungry na...

the way out to my boredom is the pleasure of getting online while on the road and making quick chitchats with friends and do some online shopping too :)

facebook ni Bea?
