SIXTY NINE: What a number!† But before imaginations get any dirtier, thatís the number of minutes it took me to complete the 10K Run in this yearís Adidas King of the Road (KOTR) held at Bonifacio Global City last Sunday, Oct. 24, 2009.

It was a measly 3-minute improvement from my previous Sundayís 72 minutes during the Quezon City International Marathon (QCIM).† An improvement, nevertheless.† Two Sundays ago, during the Milo Marathon, I did 78 minutes.† So thatís nine minutes shaved in two weeks.† Not quite bad.More on Adidas KOTR… †The organizers claim that this Adidas pulled off the biggest gathering of runners ever in the Philippines. †Just in the 10K event which I participated in, there were almost 8,000 of us. †It must have looked great if viewed from the top! †A flowing river of yellow shirts — it may well be a belated tribute to Tita Cory.

Globeís wireless broadband service is really a pain in the a** for several weeks now.† I noticed that after just about an hour it drops.† I can hardly get some serious work done.† WTF!

I recently spent some time working at Tsoko.Nut at the ground floor of The Eastwood Excelsior in Eastwood City Cyberpark (Libis).† Tsokolate Ah Batirol does live up to its superb reputation.† This particular Tsoko.Nut store in Eastwood is just small, space wise, but quite cozy.† Very courteous crew, too.† It also has some power outlets for mobile workers like me.† They donít have wi-fi (yet), though, which is quite okay with me because I always bring my Globe Visibility.† Except that Globe Visibility is in the habit of turning invisible these days as noted above.
