Coach Rio is once again raising the bar by introducing fresh new innovations and approach in organizing a running marathon event starting with this years’ Rexona Run 2010.
Here are the Innovations to Look forward to:
1. The use of the D-TAG
The D-TAG is a brand new disposable RFID that was used in the New York Marathon last year, it’s designed to be lighter, easier to use and more accurate than most timing chips.
Here’s a video on how to use and attached the D-TAG properly.
2. iPad powered Registration
Talk about being eco-friendly, all upcoming race registration will be powered by an iPad eliminating the need for paper printouts. Having everything electronic backend system will also enable people who join Run Rio races to track their past achievements and personal time records.
3. Runrio Membership Card
They are also introducing the Runrio membership card which will entitle card holders to discounts at retail stores and to earn points.
4. Portable and Convenient Water Bottle
No more scattered plastic cups on the race route, SM Bonus will launch its new water bottle at Rexon Run water stations, can be poked, drink and carried by the runner during the race litter free.
So be sure to sign up for this event and let’s all see how this new innovation can change the Pinoy running fever.

just signed up for 21k at ROX. iPad registration is cool. but the app isn’t. took at least 3 seconds after clicking NEXT before the next page showed up. but with this, runrio will be keeping our records so it’ll be faster for us to sign-up for future races *thumbs up*
as for the D-tag, i still need to figure it out because my shoes doesn’t have any laces. i guess i’ll just have to be creative then
i’d be looking forward to the race map. coach rio said there wouldn’t be any loop for the 21k distance. yey!
