Sitting on the plane from Sapporo to Bangkok, I read an interesting article in the Bangkok Post about Ed Whitlock, an 85 year old marathoner who ran the Toronto Waterfront Marathon in 3:56:34. It’s inspirational. He doesn’t do any specific training, doesn’t adhere to any strict diet or use any gadgets to monitor his heart…

This morning, I went running. It’s been awhile, actually a couple of months since I’ve been running regularly. The past few weeks its been difficult to just squeeze in twice a week of running.

I feel like I’ve somewhat passed a strenuous physical exam after recovering from a super strong strain of flu that had my brain dizzy, muscles sore and made me just collapse into a sleeping beauty every night. My immune system is now super charged and ready to take on what come. Now it’s time to get…

This morning while running, I thought about the upcoming Bangkok Marathon. I have to get a little more serious in my running. In 53 days, the Bangkok Marathon will be held as it has been for the past few years. On November 20, 2011 tens of thousands of people will be out running in the wee…

I’m always looking for something healthy to eat and drink, but when you are on a weightloss program things get a lot tougher. I love drinking Yakult. If you don’t know what it is, it is probiotic drink made by fermenting skimmed milk with a special strain of Lactobacillus. This is supposedly a very healthy…
