1,000 KM
Got this idea from Banana Running and Bald Runner. Since I got passionate about running again to reduce some pounds last April, I decided to join the 1,000km Club. I’ve been running 3x a week at Ayala. I would wake up between 5:00am or 5:30 am (usually its the latter) to start running. After some stretching and warm ups, I would run from our boarding house at Dian, turning to Buendia and have a few rounds at the Ayala Triangle. I lost 2 inches in my tummy already after 1 month. 
I just use Goggle Earth to measure the distance. It’s about 3kms from our boarding house to the Ayala Triangle and about 1.2 kms around the triangle. Getting a Polar RS200sd to monitor my heart rate, distance, and pace is in my wish list.
Quoting from Banana Running: “The goal is to run 1,000km and to reward yourself every 100km.”
So here’s my log…

So what will I get for myself after reaching my first 100km? A pint of Häagen-Dazs ice cream perhaps. I can’t wait to get one. Magkano nga ba yun? Sige kahit Selecta na lg. 
UPDATES
Jun 13 - Just reached my first 100km. Quennie and I will be having a date tonight to celebrate. Except that she will do all the eating.
Jul 11 - 200km and still counting. Just a simple reward now. I’ll have a large KFC Hotshots and an ice cream float.
Aug 5 - 300km. Bought a rain jacket. Now I can face the rain.
Aug 21 - 400km. I’ll be having a weekend getaway at Baguio to celebrate.
Sept 14 - 500km. Half way there. :D:D:D but how am I gonna treat myself without my wallet, credit card or atm card.

Hi bards, that’s the plan. 26km this sunday. But my back hurts right now after running last thurs morning. may mali yata akong ginawa. I hope to recover by sunday to continue my long run. But most probably my back needs to rest.
