Sunday Morning Run: Manila Haze

I went on an easy 8 km run yesterday morning. I was planning to run farther but since I woke up late, I had to cut it short.

When I got up to my room, I looked outside the window and I was greeted by this sight… it sure made me shiver…

This brown, murky haze that hangs over the metropolis justs shows how polluted the air is… and this is the air we breathe in! There’s this article in Men’s Health Philippines (to read, click here), showing how much of a risk factor this smog is, especially to us runners and other fitness enthusiasts.

So hopefully we’ll all do our part in helping minimize air, and other forms of pollution. It’s not only good for the environment, it’s also good for our health :D
