I was on call in the office from 9 pm up till 530 am the next day. There was some hustle problems the first half of the night but everything was OK after that. I was happy that nothing really major came up.

This is a product of my time in the office. Had to keep myself busy or else my imagination will go wild with all kinds of ghosts and apparitions.

Last week, Monday, I got home pretty early from work. I went down my car as soon as I parked it in from of my house. As soon as I got in my house, I changed into my running clothes. I donned my newly claimed Smart SIM singlet just for kicks. The fit was excellent. The fabric was soft and the singlet felt very airy. I love it. It’s what singlets are supposed to be; light, soft, airy, and easy to move in. Went down to put on my shoes. My NB758′s were sidelined because they were still wet from the previous AAV LSD that I did. I had to settle with my supposed to be retired NB 769′s. I shouldn’t be running much in those kicks anymore. They were stability shoes that I didn’t really need because I was an under pronator.

I set out to do a nice easy 10 kilometer run that night but I ended up stopping at around kilometer 3. The run started out pretty good and like how most easy runs are supposed to, easy. There was a slight breeze that kept me cool. The net like fabric of the SIM singlet not only felt light but felt cool as well. The wind blowing away at my face and at my back made me feel like I was as swift as a gazelle running for dear life because a big grizzly saber tooth lion was right at it tail. I was half way into my first kilometer when I saw other runner going around the village. With that added confidence that I was a swift gazelle, I upped my pace so as not be pawned by the other runners. They were pacing quite fast and I didn’t want them to think I was a slouch that was all show with his SIM singlet and hydration belt and no game. That could very well be that cockiest deed I have ever done in my running career. It was just a casual jog, I had nothing to lose but I still wanted to up my pace. I wasn’t in a race where the fast pace was needed. I just wanted to show off my running speed to those casual joggers.

If I had a Garmin, my guesstimated speed of 5:30 minutes per kilometer would not have been far off from the GPS’s reading. It was a pace way beyond my capabilities but I still tried to maintain it. I ran the pace for about 3 kilometers. I ran the 3 kilometers at a fast pace with the wrong shoes. I landed a lot more on the outside part of my feet which was practically wrong. I was running and landing on the outside part of my feet for 3 kilometers at a fast pace that was really beyond my capacity. I was pushing my legs over their limit. I stopped when as soon as I finished kilometer 3.

The outer sides of my feet felt like they were burning because of all the impact they absorbed. Feet aren’t built to land on their sides. My shins felt like they were going to snap. I had to stop. I had to rest.

Ever since Monday, I haven’t been able to run properly. I attempted to run the next day but stopped after 2 kilometers. I attempted to run again on Wednesday but my shin splints were still there. I rested Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. I ran yesterday with a slight hint of pain on my shins. The pain was still there but it wasn’t as bad as the previous runs. My legs are getting better but they are still injured. I ran this morning but the pain was still there.

I need to rest. I need to ice my shins. Maybe taping them will help? Any tips? I must get back in to training if I want to finish good in Smart SIM.

August 4, 2008.

As many would have thought and have grown accustomed to, August 4, 2008 was, just like any other day, a day of life changing moments filled with life long lessons that we will remember and cherish for the rest of our lives. August 4, 2008, just like any other day of the year, is a day of surprises, good times, bubble town, mouse hunt, and pack rat. August 4, 2008, just like any other day, is a Monday.

August 4, 2008 could have been all those things. August 4, 2008 could have been filled with life changing moments and bubble town. But with the recent Return of the Comeback, Augst 4, 2008 was never the day everyone hoped it would be.

Oh Hai Gais! Peth is back! do you remember me!

I bring you the return of the Comeback

GP muna!

GP? Group Pic?

Katz: Yah! PG! Di ka kasi nag foforums kaya di mo alam yung abbreviation na yun!

Peth: Yah know gais? I am so glad I’m back home, bwiset yang Utrech, pinapalaki balakang ko. :((

Uy! Piso!

One good indicator that August 4, 2008 was not the same as every other day. Nahuli sila Ken at Katz!

Ken: August 4, 2008 is just like anyother day! Kitams kami pa din nauna!

Do yah think it is wise to order the iskargu?

I cannot say it is wise because I myself ordered it last time.

And I was a tad bit disappointed.

May I suggest you order the grilled tinapa in iskargu sauce. It is cooked to perfection under the searing hot heat of the sun!

ok.

Yah know gais!? I have so much chizzmax from Utrech! As in!

What?

Ya really want to know?

yi. YI.

I tried it there!?!?!? *wink wink*

ZOMGGGGGG ZOMGGGG ZZZOMMGGMGGGGG!!!???!!

No kidding!?! And it was a fun experience if I may add. The only thing that was lacking was an aircon.

Can I have your ID? Ang ganda mo kasi dyan eh. :)

GP ulit!

I have another chizzmaxx!

Did you know that Marian Rivera is really a man! She is a post op tran-sexual!!!! Yah know! word goes around especially with TFC!

ZZZOOMMMGGG!!?!?!?!

Jack: What a banch of weirdos posing in the middle of the road.

Peth: “Welcome back Peth!!! We missed you!!!”
