The Little Running Teacher in Runner’s World Philippines
by Cheryl Golangco on Feb 19th, 2012
October 19, 2011…As part of my daily routine, I checked my email and was surprised to see a message from an unfamiliar person with the subject “Feature for Runners’ World Philippines”. I quickly opened it and almost fell out of my seat with excitement after reading the message.
In case you couldn’t read the small font, the message says,
“Hi Cheryl, I’m working on a story for Runner’s World Philippines that ...

Discovery Channel’s Vertical 10k Run
by Cheryl Golangco on Jan 25th, 2012
I started hearing about vertical runs late 2010.I was curious what it was and soon learned that vertical runs were runs that required runners to literally run in a vertical manner, or put simply – TO CLIMB STAIRS! The first thing that came to mind was, “who in his right mind would run up several flights of stairs?!” Well, apparently A LOT of people, both long time runners and new runners were eager to take the challenge. But hey, if you mis...

Race for the Orphans
by Cheryl Golangco on Jan 23rd, 2012
As a teacher, I know how important education is for the young children. Though several only think it is the latter years that are important, studies have shown that it is the early years of education that mold the child to the person he or she will grow up to be.
For most of you reading this post, you have been blessed with a strong foundation and good education that will help get you through the rest of your lives. For several others however,...

My First Marshal Experience at Greentennial’s Rescue Run!
by Cheryl Golangco on Dec 31st, 2011
Just 2 weeks ago, Cagayan de Oro and Iligan was hit with a huge typhoon that destroyed several homes and took away thousands of lives. Typhoon Sendong was one of the strongest to ever hit the two places, and they sure weren’t ready for it. In the spirit of bayanihan, everyone else tried to help out by sending donations in cash and kind. Others even experienced going to Mindanao and seeing the damage first hand.

by Cheryl Golangco on Dec 24th, 2011

Typhoon Sendong left at least 3,000 dead and thousands others homeless in...
