Run Run Ironman!

If the ultradramatic viral videos aren't enough, it's that time of the year again when men and women of fiery passion for sports would converge to join the biggest event in all of triathlon (hyperboles aside, it's really big!!) This year, Shangri-La Mactan Resort in Cebu hosted over 2000 triathletes in the bout of the fittest at the Cobra Ironman Philippines 70.3.

And in occasions like this, the Timex family (whom I did an interview not so long ago) is always raring to show support. Starstudded as it was, the Ironman event in Cebu had a great turnout. Of course with the mix of personalities. Piolo Pascual, Tessa Prieto Valdes, Coach Ani de Leon-Brown and the Pangilinan family (headed by couple Anthony and Maricel).

This makes me excited to know where the next meet would be! If its in Palawan (I highly suggest!), then count me in!
