10, 10, 10 on 10/10

I will be joining three 10K races in October 2010.

First 10K. This will be on the 10.10.10 Run For the Pasig River on 10/10/10. I wanted to join this because it is for a good cause - the clean up of the Pasig River; it is attempting to break the world record for the biggest number of participants in a road race (I think the target is 120,000) - I want to be part of that; and the route for the 10K is different - Ayala Ave. to the SM Mall of Asia.

Second 10K. The Fort Running Festival on 10/17/10. This is my wife's goal first 10K race and I want to run with her. This race also features a personalized bib which is cool.

Third 10K. Adidas King of the Road (KOTR) 2010 on 10/24/2010. This was one of the biggest and most talked about race last year, which was before I started running. It is also one of the most anticipated race this year. So, I joined this to experience the hype (and get the Adidas singlet).

I did a total of 14 races this year: 1 5K, 1 6K, 4 10Ks, 1 16K, 5 21Ks, 1 32K, and 1 42K I helped my wife finish a half marathon - something she said she would never do. I ended last year at 186 lbs. It didn't change this year. My waistline didn't change too. I thought that after training for and finishing a marathon, I would at least have a normal BMI. Oh well. I still have plantar fasciitis and for the first time I have a dead toenail (on my big toe; from my marathon). About my running gear: I retired my Mizuno Wave Elixir and Nike LunarGlide, and replaced them with the New Balance 870 and Nike LunarGlide 2. I bought 2 new Nike running shorts, 2 New Balance c...

Brand Diversity

When I got back from a run this evening, I noticed I was wearing an Adidas cap, an Apple Nike watch, a Reebok shirt, New Balance shorts, Saucony socks, and Hoka shoes. Brands were well represented.
