Kilograms to Kilometers - Men's Health Philippines Sept. 2009 Issue

My Unceasing Journey to Solstice
Vol. I - The "Lean" Revelation

Chapter III of IV
Kilograms to Kilometers

First was at the 2008 Takbo.ph yearbook, and now this...I could not ask for more. I must admit, I'm proud [not just of getting my photos (yes, including the "before" LOL) published, although I find it rather exciting..haha) to realize that everything I went through finally paid off. :D

As much as I want to put the entire article here, I don't think it's proper, I mean.... that's what having it printed in a magazine is all about. :) Anyway, here are a couple of quotes from the article (wait...does it even make sense to "quote" myself ?.... hahaha) .

"From walking to running, Viray also started pacing his intervals. He gave up an active nightlife(?..thought I said "night/evening job..anyway...) just to run in the morning with regular joggers in his neighborhood. He also adjusted his diet, shunning pigging out except on Sundays - his cheat day."

"Viray's love for running has transcended the pavement, eventually leading him to Takbo.ph, an online community of runners."

I'm glad it was my fellow runner and good friend Migs Castro who did the photographs. I'm not used to that thing :D,,, and man!!! the shoot was in UP, around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. I saw a lot of runners doing their thing, which I think is quite a usual sight at that time of the day. I almost freaked out, making me wanna stay inside the car haha.
