Hi BR,
I noticed you were wearing a nike pro shirt during this race. Just wondering if you really felt good wearing it. I was thinking of rewarding myself one, but I’m not sure if its really worth its price of 1500K?
Thanks.

taki, i am fond of wearing nice clothes and the nike pro shirt appears/feels to be your second skin. it feels that you are running naked!..hehehe..i am recommending it to you. i think I got my Nikes with 10% discount. try them and you have to reward yourself for improving your finish time consistently!

Thanks for the advice about the Nike Pro. I bought mine yesterday using a part of the Electronic Gift Certificate that I’ve won during last sunday’s Alleycat race. I couldn’t resist trying it on so I ran with it just this morning for 12K. I must say, it felt great, and it looked great. I’m happy I got it. Thanks again. 🙂

Yeah, the nike pro’s are great! I got one a month ago (blue, sleeveless), haven’t worn it in any race though. Siguro sa DocFit…
