Wall balls (not sure if that’s the correct name 😄) 3 x 15 (at ZEUS GYM)

Running during summer can be challenging especially when the 7am temp is already in the low 30s (high 80s) that's why I usually hit the road when it's still dark. But it's summer, kids don't have school and morning chores are a-plenty. You just have to grin and bear it...and take selfies. 😁 (at St. Scholastica's Academy of Marikina)

Back on the road for the first time this summer and after a 2-week break. Good to know that the early morning temp outdoors is still cold. (at Rancho Estate, Marikina city)

I had dessert for breakfast. 😉 Happy to have found Tealia dessert tea yesterday. There are lots of exciting flavors in their dessert tea collection. The first one I tried is Dark Chocolate Almond and it's so good! Will buy Raspberry Truffle next time. #tealia #tea #desserttea #artisantea

A short run is better than no run and I always start my Mondays with one. #run #runner #running #momswhorun #motherrunner #morningrunner #marathontraining #marathondreams (at Rancho Estate, Marikina city)

First time to try planking with skateboard. Need to improve on the form. Strength training to reach that marathon dream. :) #planking #workout #gym #gymlife #run #runner #running #strengthtraining #marathondreams #marathontraining #momswhorun #motherrunner #momswhoworkout

Spot the runner whose focus is not taken by gadgets and is therefore ready to fly. One day I hope to run gadget-free and just enjoy it without thinking of my pace and the distance because it surely looks more fun that way. Thank you @iamchadderz for letting me use your photo. 😊 #711run2016 #run #runner #marathon #marathondreams #justrun #takbo

Ran the 21k of 7-eleven Run 2016 this morning. It was dark when it started and it was still dark when I crossed the finish line. 😉 Will do this again in three weeks, same venue and distance, for the Condura Skyway Marathon. #711run2016 #7elevenrun #run #runner #halfmarathon #morningrunner

Who runs in the dark? Those who are afraid of the sun like me! 😝 Glad that 6am is still this dark and that the 7am sun is not harsh on the skin yet. It's another story when summer's here. #runner #run #morningrunner #marathontraining #marathondreams #roadto50

I'm turning 50 in 2017 and I have just one item in my bucket list -- to run a marathon. To my non-running friends, a marathon is 42.195km. I may have run a lot of races but until I run a marathon, I cannot call myself a marathoner and I want the label. 😉 This I can achieve by being the best me fitness-wise. I have 13 months to prepare and on the days I'm too lazy to train, this post will remind me of my commitment. Oh, this will be my Facebook cover pic so I will see this everyday. 😂 #run #runner #marathon #marathontraining #marathondreams #bucketlist
