3) Annual Christmas Gift giving and Medical Mission for the children of the Camillian Sisters at Cainta, Rizal

It will be an intimate event with a maximum of 1,000 participants. This fun run is recommended for those who are relatively new to the running community. There will be a 3k and 5k run for beginners inside McKinley Hill and a more challenging 10k route that goes through Lawton Ave and Bayani Road that brings you to Heritage Park.

You can expect more than enough drinks at our hydration stations, compliments of Wilkin’s Mineral Water and Powerade. Keep yourself safe from harmful UV-rays with giveaways from Coppertone! After the race, enjoy treats from Kellogs cereals or grab a breakfast meal from Jollibee.

.

This event is for those who wish to enjoy a family-oriented running event. There will be special loot bags for children, as well as a children’s activity area with a giant inflatable castle and slide. A photo booth will also be made available for all participants. A motorized bike and 2 underwater cameras are also up for grabs in the children’s raffle. Adults on the other hand have a chance to win a one of six pairs of Reebok shoes.

    Hi, would like to ask for a soft copy of the fun run route map. I went to All Terra, Libis to register but the map wasn’t included in the kit. I’m not so familiar with the place and the map would be helpful.

    Thanks!

  6. masterbaruri Said,

    thank you passion runnner for the quick update. i ran in the 5k category but during the last u-turn towards the finish line i asked the marshall if i was gonna go straight or make the u-turn. she told me to go straight but when i was about 200m from that point she and other marshalls called my attention ( i heard them because they were shouting) telling me to go back. what?! that gave me additional 2-3 minutes to my running time. what a hassle. that made me kinda frustrated as i was trying to beat my personal best record. oh well, i didn’t bother to complain right after because i was so exhausted. but just the same, i wanna air out my feelings regarding that matter. my bib number is 0651. maybe you could email me my time. thanks. there were some glitches, but then again, it was okay over-all.

  7. Passion Runner Said,

    Thank you sir for your feedback. It will help us when we do our race assessment. Rest assured that I will mention this error. We try our best to properly train our marshals to provide our runners adequate support and information all throughout the race.

    I apologize in behalf of our marshals and of run4change. I do know the frustration of going in the wrong direction, especially if you are trying to beat a PR. As for your time, we will post the results as soon as they are complete. As a policy, we do not give out individual times, until the masterlist has been generated. I hope you understand.

    I do hope you join us again in your future races.

    NOTE: For other individuals who wish to give their comments or other feedback, you may email us at feedback@run4change.com. We would love to hear from you.

  9. masterbaruri Said,

    Hi. I have another comment regarding the run. It’s about the categories. In the registration form, aside from running the distance of either 3k, 5k, or 10k, a male or female participant is classifed as either PAA Member, MD (non-alumni), Allied Medical Professionals, Pharma or OPEN. How come only the top 5 finishers for male and female for each distance covered were announced? Is there gonna be a different announcement for the other categories (PAA, MD, Allied medical professionals, Pharma or OPEN)? Or was it inadvertently missed? I hope not. I hope that in the final and official results there would be winners in the other category. Thanks and more power.

  10. Passion Runner Said,

    Dear Sir, this matter was already brought up to the Steering committee of the event, headed by Dr. Sandy Teodoro. It will be their decision whether they will give out special prizes for the top finishers in the aforementioned categories.
