Last Wednesday (Jan. 9), the Cebu Executive Runners Club organized a press-conference for the upcoming Mizuno-Shell Sinulog Half-Marathon slated on Jan. 19. Here’s the article (found below) written by Norvi Misa of Sun.Star Cebu yesterday (Jan. 10) and below are some photos.

Once every week or two, my wife and I sit on La-Z-Boy chairs, recline the seats, perch our legs on stools, close our eyes for 60 minutes and quiet our bodies as therapists stroke our toes. Don’t you love a good massage? I do. After our weekly dinner-date, Jasmin and I visit a spa—a habit that we’ve started two years ago.

Why a massage? First, it feels good. No, make that… it feels really, really good. When you sit on that chair for a foot relax or lie on that bed with face rested, you feel good. Your muscles whisper to your heart, “Ahhhh.” But more than feeling good—and since this is a sports and not a Lifestyle Section article—having a massage is good for the body.

I received the following e-mail yesterday from Noel Flowers, the captain of the Cebu City Rugby Football Club (CCRFC):

Hello John….. I thought you might be interested to know that this Saturday will be the 2nd Visayas Ladies Touch Rugby Championship from 10 AM to 4 PM at Camp Lapu Lapu parade ground in Lahug.

As I said, you never know. But maybe she did. You see, cocaine isn’t like steroids. No, I’ve never taken it—and never will—but based on what I’ve researched, cocaine “increases self-confidence and creates a type of euphoria” while steroids, well, we know, builds muscles as big as, say, Barry Bonds.

He is the world No.3 tennis player. He reached the finals of the U.S. Open last month and had a shot at beating the almost-unbeatable Roger Federer. But apart from all his seriousness on-court, he’s funny. Maybe one of the funniest players to appear on the tour in a long time.

Having breached 1.3 million YouTube hits, you’ve got to watch this video clip of Novak Djokovic… (if you can’t watch it below, click on this.)

Guess who…

Finally, we won. After losing the first two games against Manny Pacquiao and his team, we won the third one, 95-91.

Our Los Jefes de Cebu badminton team stood proud as champions. Meeting stiff resistance from other badminton-fanatic cities, we emerged champions. Thanks to Jordan Tanco, Jomi Tan, Benny Que, Chris Que, Arman Bolo, Ruel Dihiansan, Louie Moro, and (women) Cheiko Saito, Cathy O, Arlene Yu, Jeselle Laranas, Noeme Orellosa and team captain Gina Juan.
