RUNNING, PHOTOGRAPHY, BLOGGING & VLOGGING help me DEVELOP a LOVE for my LIFE.
Over the course
of my life as I grew up and matured (lols), I’ve contained a number of run-of-the-mill
interests like ball games, video games, art, just to name a few. But none of
them have changed or defined my life or brought me as much satisfaction as blogging/vlogging,
running and photography. In almost too many ways to count, these 3 passions
have changed me and the way I live my life aside from my work.
Any of these 3
has become a passion that I can put in good word to others. I started
blogging as a personal tool to journal some parts of my life and express what’s
in my mind and my emotions that I cannot voice out directly to other people. Before
I started vlogging, running and photography are my stress relievers. Running
makes me feel healthy and gives me mental fortitude while photography becomes a
creative outlet for me to see the beauty in every captured memory that I can
have forever. But somewhere along the
line, it becomes less about me writing the story in blog when I discovered vlogging
in which I can tell a story in video format. I begin to love it because I’ve
always loved to share things, and making videos has become
an extension for my love of writings.
And while there are many articles
written about these hobbies, for me, if
you combine running, writing blog, filming vlogs and photography or even doing only
one of this passions, it’ll surely DEVELOP
A LOVE FOR your LIFE with its all beauty, good health, joy,
love, connection, adventures, thoughts, emotions, and awesomeness that makes up
life. So, let’s wrap it up here, how could you not try even one or two or all
of these and experience it now?? And maybe can change your life and become you happier.
But, anyway, if
you’re any of these: blogger, vlogger, runner, photographer or not, hopefully
you can relate to at least a little of it.

This thoughts.... Milo Marathon
We understand cut-off’s of 2:30 requirements to be a proud Finisher for Milo Half-Marathon. We get it of course and it sends message to us to train and push harder for our goals. But if you finish the distance then you completed the distance. I would and will never take away from someone’s accomplishments due to how long it took them to finish. Different things happen along the way. If you go out and run 21k in a race last Sunday but miss the cut off, I do not things that means that you did not just run a half mary. I would consider that you are a Milo Marathon Finisher. You finish 21k and while you do not have an official time for your effort – you are still very much a part of the Milo Marathon history. While other people spend so much time cutting each other down while some runners miss the cut off times, please don't make them down rather motivate them. I just remind you that you did something that very few ever will do. Put your body through 21k and keep on going to beat that damn cut off time, and finish the JOURNEY.

The reasons we do this sport are as personal as our goals for given races. A sub 2 hour half marathon or sub 2:30 21k is a huge achievement for some and a -poor-WTF-happened race failure for others. If people are doing this for a title…. a new PR or to be a Qualifier….then they are doing it for a different reason that we are. We can certainly applaud each other's accomplishments in the sport and encourage each other, but let’s "thrive" on setting and achieving our own goals. Just keep running and think about why you started.
