RED2018 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 @Artedpro.... Just visited MSC today made 4km run in 22mins and 30 secs then I went to Krun Thai Resto... Ang sarap ng food lalo na fried chicken with bagoong rice... and tom yum soup tooAyus! (talo ang bonchon chicken sa sarap... and talo rin ang max's) feeling ko nga sumasama lang daughter ko in anticipation of the Krung Thai Resto tsibug... Quote Link to comment

dungeonbaby Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Apart from the BDO run on March 25, meron ding Fox International Channel run sa Fort by RunRio. Penshoppe-brand shirts are given away upon registration, each race category has its own shirt design. Quote Link to comment
Droidz1979 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) Registered in BDO since i like the singlet design but am not sure if am gonna run on race day since i don't like the venue : MOA. The terrain/elevation is not as challenging as Global city or near ULTRA in Pasig and i hate the short turns. The fact also that it's way farther for me to commute or ride the taxi does not help its case. But am definitely gonna claim my singlet tomorrow in Makati Mukhang drawing lang yong group sa FB, baka mas realistic pa kung dito cguro pag-usapan.

dungeonbaby Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 just checked out the natgeo run link. these races are getting expensive! and the race routes at the fort and moa are becoming a bit humdrum. any feedback on lesser-known running events would be nice. has anyone raced in marikina? seems there are events there every weekend when i check takbo.ph Quote Link to comment

Fugosian run and Philippine Water run 350 and 200 entry fee respectively.... nice run but both without hydration on 3k and 5k run...no loot bag... but the fugosian have singlet Quote Link to comment

Ran in Marikina thrice already a couple of years ago and i personally don't like it (venue are twice in the city proper and the other one at Marikina riverbanks). Yes the registration was cheap, but the singlet sucks, barely had hydration corner/s, not much freebies (guess it ain't free with the fee you need to shell out) and the terrain is not challenging enough. I guess run's in UP Diliman or the one sponsored by Pasig City would qualify into this category better, not so expensive registration fee, challenging terrain and you could get lucky at times if it had a decent sponsor then you could get a good singlet out of it (sa Pasig run ay wag ka nang umasa for it though) . You could also try the Mt. Makiling run in UPLB or Subic which i haven't tried myself yet but i've been here before so I know the race route will be challenging. So far a run in Ayala techno-park in Cebu pa lang "technically" nasamahan ko. Quote Link to comment

So far a run in Ayala techno-park in Cebu pa lang "technically" nasamahan ko. thanks, that's real helpful. i might not try the marikina races then. i've tried running races in up and ateneo, some were pretty good, almost always well-organized and you can't complain about the terrain which is always refreshing compared to moa or the fort. the nice thing about the fort is that runners abound, and there's safety and a feeling of community in that. i've run in subic in the dead of summer and the heat is just oppressive even at 6am, but the subic track oval is nice. i've run in colder climes and it hurt my lungs to take in the brisk air, but the sights were always worth it. you're right, just depends on what you want out of a run.
