Outrun yourself at Rexona Run Thursday, September 6, 2012
Manila Standard Get ready to outrun yourself at the Rexona Run 2012 happening on Sept. 23 at the SM Mall of Asia grounds.
A part of the Runrio Series, this year’s edition is bigger, with a new category, more prizes and exciting features that will bring running to a higher level.
Registration is ongoing until Sept. 16 or until slots last at Riovana stores in Bonifacio Global City and Katipunan, and Toby’s branches in Trinoma and SM Mall of Asia. Online registrations are also accepted at www.runrio.com from now until 12 midnight of Sept. 9.
Runners can choose to take part in the 5K, 21K Solo or, for the first time ever, the 21K Relay race category. The top 3 finishers in the 21K Solo take home P7,000, 5,500, and 4,000; while P5,000, 4,000, and 3,000 will be awarded to each member of the top finishers in the 21K Relay division. Finally, the top three finishers in the 5K category bring home P4,000 for first, 3,000 for second and 2,000 for third.
Adding excitement to the event is Rexona’s challenge for runners to beat the “industry standard,” wherein commemorative key chains will be given to finishers who end the race on or before the recommended finishing time. To qualify, 5K runners must cross the finish line on or before 6:20 a.m., 30 minutes from gun start and all 21K runners need to finish on or before 7 a.m., 2 hours after gun start.
