Getting in Shape

Thanks to an iPod, I finally got the much-needed encouragement to start running (again) and hopefully lose some weight. Running around the neighborhood is not that bad. My parents used to run in the early morning but eventually got disgusted by loads of shit plastered on the pavement. Lucky for me I haven't encountered any.

I got my running route from a fun run organized by the local parish some years back. The 5km route, which starts at Bagumbayan, covers Biyaya, Mag. Jose Abad Santos, Mag. Arellano, Mag. Mapa, Bataan, Lubiran, Dalisay, Bacood, Bagumbayan and Dangal. For a relaxed pace, that distance should be enough for a 30-minute jog.
