May himala!


Ladies and gentlemen, there's a miracle! May himala!

The jogging session my padmate Harry had been planning for weeks has finally started. He was actually waiting for me to be ready, and today was D-day.

Miracle #1: I woke up at 5:30! Well, Harry actually roused me from my restful slumber. I groggily searched for my worn-out rubber shoes and got ready while Harry eyed me by the doorway. Excited? hehe

Miracle #2: We're jogging! I would have preferred brisk walking for starters but there we were. I did a combination of brisk walking and jogging. We circled the block, then moved to the rooftop of the condo for more rounds.

Miracle #3: We're going to the office at 8! We won't be late!

On the downside, I'm not really a morning person so I still feel a bit sleepy as I type this entry on the way to the office. I wonder if this newfound activity will make drastic changes to my morning habits. Yeah, waking up early for one things is really drastic for me. It's a good thing, though. So let's see!
Sunrise, is that you?

  2. i've only tried jogging (voluntarily) less than ten times my entire life. i've done mountain biking a few times only also. I swim laps nowadays although I don't do that many laps. I guess I'm not much of a cardio guy. hehe. I hit the weights though.

  6. Meowok: second day and still going istrong!

    Wil: This is my first time to do this in Manila. But the last time I did jogging in Manila was in high school! But I walk a lot, and I get my exercise mostly from that.

    Biyahengpinoy: Uy Marikina! Sige ha! Contact kita one time. I'd love to see Marikina with my wife. Drop by ako sa Marikeno blog mo one time.

    rho: inaantok naman ako... hehehe

    Airwind: Oo nga eh... tinahulan kami ng aso. Buti na lang nakatali. Kaya hayun, for this second day, we jogged na lang sa rooftop ng condo.

  10. Jogging is overrated. Stick with the brisk walks. Your knees will thank you someday...
