Rush to my late afternoon speedwork
After a long and tiring night (getting home at around 1am) I failed to get out of bed for my morning training at ULTRA. I looked out the window and saw it was drizzling then went back to bed. Class was still at 6pm so I decided to head to ULTRA for an afternoon speed work session.
RUSH to Ultra
On my way to ULTRA, I got a call from Coach Rio. Apparently, he had picked up from the warehouse the 50 cases of Rush Fitness Water Vince (brand manager of Rush Fitness Water) gave to me, Jaymie aka The Bull Runner, Ben aka The Photographer on the Run, Sir Jovie aka Bald Runner, and of course, Coach Rio
The week prior, I was teasing Vince, “O pare, tingnan mo naman header ng site ko… Rush colors tapos nakasuot pa ako ng Rush to Infinity singlet… dapat maging endorser na ako para may iinumin ako pang-training”. True enough, Vince sends me a text message, “Pare, nakahanda na 10 cases ng Rush para sa ‘yo” Thanks Vince! Love you! Hehe
Go Rush!
