He recommended to use Strava or Twin Peaks as part of the training. I was inpired to make an impossible goal. From couch potato to marathoner in 100 days. I missed it because there were no marathons on Thursdays. So I ran my first marathon with 103 days training, 31 years after I stopped running. I initially thought it was

In my early days of running in 2016, I used races to train. For example, I joined a 10km race to train for a 16k; I

In less than 12 hours, I will begin my last Unreasonable Mental Challenge for 2023. It is the 50 km ultra from Calamba to Sta. Cruz, Laguna. This annual ultramarathon race derives its inspiration from our national hero, Jose P. Rizal, which is why it starts in his birthtown. The race ends in Sta.
