Trained by Cobra Ironman Filipino Elite Defending Champion Noy Jopson, We (Team Reborn) are heading to Camarines Sur for the 2010 Cobra 70.3 Ironman Philippines. We endured. We are determined. We are ready.
We wake-up very early almost everyday to train. We ran under almost all weather conditions. We rode our bikes to distances we never thought we can reach.
Coach pushed us. He made us bike 90 Km then run 8 Km with fast-slow intervals immediately after. He made us swim 2 Km an hour after running 18 Km. He made us do track workouts almost to the point of exhaustion. He made us swim really hard until we drink pool water more than we can breath air. And he made us do it almost everyday. Rest days meant swimming in the pool for 30 minutes and doing core and strengthening exercises in the gym. Easy days meant running in the treadmill for 90 minutes with increasing pace and elevation or trail running for 21 Km at the "Hills" of Budlaan. Coach was never good with using adjectives like Easy, Moderate or Hard.
The Pay-off?
CITIUS. ALTIUS. FORTIUS.
Faster. Higher. Stronger.
The Result?
(Dr. Reel - 1st Place Doctors' Category 5th CDU Run)
(MOVE with AIR Run: Rochelle Tan - 4th Place 4K Open, Tyrone Tan - 8th Place 8K Open, Joseph Miller - 4th Place 8K Open and Reel - 5th Place 8K Open)
(Jung and Tenggoy finished strong at Matabungkay Tri-King with Coach Noy)
Team Reborn is now ready for the Cobra 70.3 Ironman Philippines.
