Running, Photography, Family. June 27, 2014. 36 Days To Go. As Coach Ige said – This is it! I knew my June training would be heavy and difficult. Tiring. Long. But my attitude changed while training for the Cebu IM70.3 event. Tiring means fulfillment. Long means miles in the bank. Heavy and difficult mean gaining strength and endurance. As I write this blog entry, I am envisioning flashbacks of what have transpired during my last few months of training – a small smile is on my lips. Here comes June. ...

Running, Photography, Family. Road to IM70.3. January 3, 2014. Why hello there blog. I haven’t seen or written on you for a while now. How about we start our on and off relationship again? Yes, good for me too. So what have you missed? So enough of him. Let’s now focus on my favorite topic – me. What have I been up to lately, you say? Well, I ditched drinking beer and moved to whiskey and single malt, been craving for dayap cake from Chocolate kiss…oh so good. What’s what? Oh how limiting… Fine. I am now...

My Cobra IronMan 70.3 Experience Part 1 | Gailcons's Blog
https://gailcons.wordpress.com/2014/08/06/my-cobra-ironman-70-3-experience-part-1
Running, Photography, Family. My Cobra IronMan 70.3 Experience Part 1. August 6, 2014. Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure. How did I get here? So from someone who didn’t know how to float on his back he actually survived and finished 1.9k swim, 90k bike and a 21k run. Amazing! So as soon as registration opened I found myself signing up for the race. That will change our lives forever. When we got to Terminal 3, the place was packed! Off to the airport we go! Anthon...

The Husband Pacer Challenge | Gailcons's Blog
https://gailcons.wordpress.com/2010/03/26/the-husband-pacer-challenge
Running, Photography, Family. Globe run for home. The Husband Pacer Challenge. March 26, 2010. As part of our program, we needed to do long runs every weekend. The only way we can do this is if we join races as we tend to procrastinate. At least if we joined weekend races, we would be obligated to do the long run training. Globe R4H would be my 3. What was up with me! We rushed to Makati and had an easy time finding parking. Ahhh…the benefits of being early. I waited for him only to be left behind? Befor...

Resolutions | Gailcons's Blog
https://gailcons.wordpress.com/2015/01/03/resolutions
Running, Photography, Family. January 3, 2015. I’ve been meaning to write my 2015 resolutions on Facebook but I realized that it is more appropriate to do it on this blog. Why? Because it’s freaking long that’s why. Haha! Each has its own explanation of sorts to remind me why I am doing it. I hope to God that I am able to stick to it the whole year round. 1 Be more patient. Slow to anger. I find peace in reading the bible and praying the rosary. I should do this more often. Noy: where are you? Training c...

Finally at 4am, I decided to give up and start preparing for my long day. I opened my bible and started to reflect on the day’s readings which I already knew having heard anticipated mass the day before. Before heading out to face our demons. Gulp! A few minutes before 5am and the place was already packed. We were thankful that t...

Post-Race Blues | Gailcons's Blog
https://gailcons.wordpress.com/2014/08/27/post-race-blues
Running, Photography, Family. August 27, 2014. It’s been more than 3 weeks after my IM70.3 debut and I must admit that during the first few weeks after my big event, I felt down, discontented and disappointed. It’s an odd feeling as I have never felt like this not even after my first full marathon. How does one deal with post-race blues? I am not an expert but what worked for me may also work for you. 1 Allow yourself to recover. 2 Indulge in other activities during your free time. 5 Set a new goal.
