koopahl Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 The brochure says that the only official registration center is at ground floor of the Vazquez-Madrigal building in Annapolis Greenhills. The contact person is Babes Carasco. But I suggest you try visiting Adidas stores because I remember in past races they also accept registration for the run. It's Php250 and a race singlet will be given to you upon payment. Not only that, sponsor freebies are also given to successful running participants, that is, those who are able to finish the run within the time limit. I think it's 3hrs for the 10K. 3 hrs for 10k? maski siguro gumapang ka di ka siguro abutin ng 3 hrs...unless mag-snack ka muna bago ka gumapang uli... haven't registered yet...try to go to the adidas store at gateway kung pwede kuha ng application duon...greenhills is out of the way from my route going home...

koopahl Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 going there mamaya to register with half the runners in my club... see you september 17...find us dragging the rear of the pack Quote Link to comment
Dr_PepPeR Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 fort bonifacio nagiging runners haven.. ayos kasi marami pang open area at closed roads. ideal sa mga nag jo-jogging.. at mukang medyo safe dito I agree Ft Boni is one of the safest places in MM. Where do you guys park there? I've been wanting to do a two hour run during a weekend but it gets boring to just keep going around and around the memorial park I usually use for this.

Dr_PepPeR Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 A few comments: Finally a running club thread! I used to do all the road races around 10 years ago, my favorites were the Executive 10K at UP where they have age groupings so its quite possible to medal in this race, the Yakult 10-miler which had a lot of participants, the Coke-Arrow 10K, and the Milo Half Marathon. After a while sponsorship of road races started to wane and even PAL stopped sponsoring the very popular PAL Marathon. Its great to find out that there are still road races sponsored by the biggies. Kudos to daDJ for posting the info on the upcoming events. Maybe we should organize this as an MTC running club like what a previous poster suggested. My idea is to register as a club if the event permits this and we could have MTC singlets made if people here are so inclined. I would think that this may be better than going to some of the MTC EBs I've been invited to but never attended. Thank you again daDJ for the info. Quote Link to comment

koopahl Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 for php250.00 you get an adidas kotr singlet (white) in medium or large and your bib number... the race is 10k, has 5 age categories... and the starting gun is 6a.m. SO BE THERE! :cool: Quote Link to comment
vaportrail Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 What is included in the reg sa Adidas run may shirt ba? I got a white singlet, which looks nice. may price tag pang nakalagay haha! (para isipin siguro ng mga sumali na sulit yung 250php na reg fee). Dalwa lang available na sizes either medium or large. Mukhang may finisher shirt pang iaabot (may tshirt stub sa race #). About the MTC running club, sounds interesting :cool: Quote Link to comment
