Sir Jovie!

I’ll be donating another pair of shoes… I was talking to Lemuel the other day. I’ll make it a point, or try my best at least to be able to donate shoes in every race. I’ve already told my friends and other people I know who might be willing to donate. Hopefully, they all respond

I was waiting for a post on where you would be running so that I’d could donate them. Well, your recent comment says Fort on the 13th! See you there sir! And hopefully, I got to get a snapshot

bards, i had to change my wet running attire to include my socks & shoes & had a plane to catch back to capiz after eating hot beef mami at causeway. so i am sorry, i was not able to meet you at the “booth”. i’ll see you at the next race & i’ll see to it that we’ll have picture-taking. thanks for supporting the “project”..and extend my regards and thanks to your friend, mesh.

mark, thanks for supporting the “project”. i am sure your other shoe will be taken by a less fortunate runner in the next road race. Don Fernando Zobel is younger by almost 8 years from my age and I hope we can run with him side by side in the next road races in the future and that would be a nice goal. thanks for the comments and insights.

Hey that’s my Adidas Torsion on the last pic! Glad somebody picked it up. Those pair has a lot of sentimental value. For starters, it was my official run shoe for years. It was also the pair my wife (gf at that time) picked up for me during our first year together. The sole is the original design of torsion. That particular model was actually suited in running during the cold season in germany. (Thats the info I got when I googled it years back) : )

Buti pa yung CC cushion na binigay ko, nakatabi iyong asics ni Don Jaime. Eh ako, nadaanan lang nya ako sa bilis ng pace nya last Sunday. He finished at 1:13:04 even beating the time of my super fast friend Lala Calma. Aside from Bald Runner, Don Jaime is now one of the real runners I admire. My goal is to be as fit as you guys when I add more years to my age. (That’s a very nice way to deliver it instead of saying when I grow older. hehehe)

Sayang! When my friend and I got to the booth you were gone. I did get to to see the some of shoes traded in for those donated last sunday. I admired these runners even more. I am known to whine about cushioning of a shoe etc but some of these runners are using really worn out shoes na. More power to your project Baldrunner! and next time we will have pix with you na rin. hehehe
