Globe Run for Home 2011 – Online Registration Now OPEN!

ang mahal!

Quite expensive reg fees.
What are the race+kit features aside from a recycled singlet?
What is meant by ‘reusable timing chip’ as well? Do we get to use it for Globe Run next year?

please post the race route and sample singlet….

Where can we get the copy of reg’n form if we opt to register at Glorietta 3?

Please advise,

TNX!

medyo naging interesado ako doon sa reusable timing chip. saan kaya pwede gamitin ulit yan?

tama ang mahal., and please post
sample ng singlet design?,,

eeeeewwwww! super mahal! The Condura run was expensive because they made the Skyway available for us to run, but this one is crazy! what’s in it for us Runners?

pakiusap po ilahad ang kumpleto detalye ng karera. Anu-ano po bagay at serbisyo ang matatanggap namin sa halagang ibabayad po namin. Takbung-takbo na ko!:)

over sa kamahalan ha, nevermind na lang ang daming matatakbuhan, I paid P1,050 for 16k at Condura pero ok lang kasi Skyway experience yun e, pero ito crazy! I am running 21K at the same place on March 6 for P750 na dami pang freebies and siguradong well organized bcoz it’s Runrio. I actually don’t care about singlets, kasi I don’t wear naman their singlets. plus, I’ve read a lot of negative feedback regarding their event last year, i guess it’s not worth it.

hmmm…mahal… pero interesting ang reusable timing chip…

may finishers medal ba? condura kc may medal kaya ok n din kahit meho mahal…

i really dont see the point of using a reusable timing chip. not unless it will be sanctioned by all event organizers. if they’ve used a disposable one, bababa kaya ung cost ng regs fee? hmmm….

singlet is predominantly white with blue on the side (and shoulder) and the R4H logo in the front

measurements:
S – 24(length) 18.5(chest)
M – 24.5(length) 21(chest)
L – 25.5(length) 22.5(chest)
XL – 26(length) 23.75(chest)
XXL – 26.5(length) 25(chest)

@beastboy, only the 21k runners will be getting finishers medal

natawa ko kay Tekla… kasi ganun din reaction ko… eeewwwwwwwww ang mahal! .. haha

thanks barefoot… sana man lang meron din yung 15k

SO SO Quite expensive reg fees.
what are the thing we get..
will there be a finisher medal….

I can understand the expensive registration fee IF a greater percentage will go to the beneficiaries. How much will they give to GK, Habitat, etc? Baka naman P50.00 lang din?

Hehe sobrang mahal nga parang Condura, Ano ba mga freebies nito? Dapat may discount mga globe subscribers .

ang mahal ha…baka gawin na itong standard na fees sa ibang mga running events…wow baka wala na tatakbo!

basta ako, ok ako dito….. tagal ko nang inaabangan toh. R4H hir aY kam.

finishers medal pls….maganda na yung malinaw kasi may ibang event na first 100 lang ang may medal….pano naman yung iba..dapat lahat ng 21k finishers may medal….di naman natin magagamit yang reusable d tag kung reusable yan…like other d tag…either keychain o collection ang labas nyan sa akin…sabihin nila lahat ng laman ng race kit para masabing worth it ang presyo nila sa registration….their company is globe…kumikita ng milyon everyday yan….dapat expected ng mga runners na alaga sila ng globe like runrio did to runners

Kaya mahal kasi mahal na ang mga materials pangpagawa ng bahay…..;)

In fairness naman with Condura, its quite expensive kasi aside from we are allowed to run in Skyway and everybody has the Medal, Allrunners in the event were insured..

Race Kit
– Singlet (sizes will be subject to availability)
– D-tag
– Race Bib Number
– Runpix analysis
– Downloadable Photos
– Finishers medal for 21km

P50 lang po ang mapupunta sa chosen beneficiary

sa Condura, lahat ng finishers me medal. Unique ang route kase dumaan sa skyway. Ang tanong eh bakit ang mahal ng singil ng Globe? Bakit si Unilab P750 lang ang regs fee sa 21k?

at maidagdag ko lang, sa unilab eh ang ganda ng post-race activities at meron pa silang activehealth village na kung saan me malaking tent na pwede ka mag-chillax

sigurado pa din ako, dudumugin pa din yan ng tao. at ito na ang magiging standard regs fee sa susunod na takbuhan. hays …

san na yung singlet design?

masyadong mahal….condura worth it kasi sa skyway ang route.

ang mahal!!! tapos recycled pa ung mga gamit..i expected alot from globe..is this run for a cause?

Grabe na NEGOSYO n ginagawa nila s mga runners! inquirer run ok kc mganda ang singlet at affordable price, run unilab nd ko gusto tela ng singlet negosyo din… Kadugo run in mandaluyong n lng kmi! 100 lng :-)

baka mag-react na naman yung ayaw ng mga angal.

sa kabilang site, may nagsabi na meron daw patakbo ang yakult (Yakult 10 Miler (16K) sa March 27). pwedeng alternative yun.

yikes!!! ang mahal!!! no thanks! baka may balak silang magpalit ng line of business from being a telco to organizing fun runs hehe

@Oscar: natawa ako dun ah.

off topic:
Yung patakbo ng Yakult, para ding sa Botak.
Malulupit mga sumasali diyan.
Di glamorous, walang fireworks, walang di naman kailangan sa race.

Kumbaga: “Takbuhan na, nang magkaalaman na!”

@pinoy fitness: thanks for your concern. we appreciate your gesture.

dapat kasama na ang delivery charge sa bayad….lupet…negosyo na toh…sa ibang running event libre na yung delivery of race kit…grabe ang globe

Hay kung ang selling point ng takbo na to ay tumulong sa community sana nilakihan nila yung contribution sa charities…

Sa Ayala naman yung ruta ng takbo e kumpanya din naman nila ang Globe sana binabaan na nila yung reg fee tutal makikinabang naman ang Ayalas.

guys, try to consider this alternative race on the same day which will be held at FIlinvest Corporate City in Alabang for the the benefit of the Isko Cleans UP, a project to implement solid waste management in the University of the Philippines – Diliman.

and until now, globe hasn’t made any comment regarding high regs fee. i guess at the back of their minds, “sasali naman din kayo eh”. and i believe they are right

lets admit it, reklamo tayo ng mahal pero lalabas pa din tayo sa feb 28 para magpa-register

who could resist globe fun run? not unless me big time na takbuhan na sasabayan ito. at sa murang halaga

i think it goes without saying na there’s a tendency to “brag” that we joined this and that fun run. at kapag small time ung sinalihan mo eh hindi ka IN

ay naku! no choice…gusto ko tumakbo eh!

pag natuloy ang yakult 10 miler, i’ll run in this event instead.

In my opinion, runners will join this race at their own disposition.

Globe’s run last year is my debut race for running. I joined and I was happy after finishing a 10K. Up to now, I am still wearing the black baller ID I’ve got from “Habitat for Humanity”. The registration fee that time is not more than Php700 and I enjoyed the same race features as to what they are offering now.

At this point, registration increased by more than 50% with a change in location and additional medal for 21K finishers (last year they gave a finisher singlet for 21K). With this increase in their registrations as compared to other local well-organized, quality-driven races, what the organizers should anticipate is a massive expectation of an international standard race. A good comparison I could give from a personal experience is Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon last December. The registration for 21K in this international event is only 36SGP (~Php1300.00), with high quality singlets from ASICS, a glamorous medal for all finishers in all categories, lootbags, pre and post race activities, personalized race certificates, dignified beneficiaries, well-organized registration service and a lifetime experience of a wonderful race.

In the end, it is up to the organizers of Globe R4H 2011 to be at par with the expectations of their runners. I still think they do this because they want to help, and not to mock a business with the entire running community (fingers crossed!) :)

GO YAKULT…OK K BA TYAN???:)

Go YAKULT 10miler run!!!

next week daw ang details sa Yakult…

read again, guys & gals.
it says clearly

“get a singlet made from 100% recycled
PET bottles & reusable timing chips”

i think it’s pathetic to brag of expensive or big times races that you’ve joined… people who do this are “porma” runners; not real runners. it’s not the cost that counts… it’s the fun, safety and quality of the race that matters.

I joined last year but I swear not to join this year or possibly future Globe races. I feel cheated when they did not give medals for 21K finishers, while the finisher’s singlet in lieu of the medals are just mere low quality fabric. Yung ibibigay nila sa Gawad Kalinga, pera ng runners yun, di nila pera. Sila nag-organize lang sila, pero ang mga gastusin ng races, sa fees din ng runners nanggaling. Kung talagang tutulong sila sa GK, dapat sa mismong pondo ng Globe manggagaling.

in terms of the race kit offered by this “business” run, wag na sana tayo mgpauto. if you are a smart runner, you will not join this event. if you join this without even reconsidering, i think you are the opposite. sakto tlga ang name na globe, nambibilog lang ng ulo. sana i-improve na nila ang quality ng internet service nila with the profit they’ll be making in this event kasi kahit dun puro negative feedbacks din. “less commercials, improve quality”

No thanks! Next running event please.

maganda ang timing para sa onsite registration. sakto sa araw ng sweldo

@Pinoyfitness. In a democratic country like ours, we have the freedom to speak our minds as long as it is factual and everything doesn’t appear as false accusations or derogatory, so to speak. Kung babasahin mo yung mga experiences ng mga runners, factual lahat yun. Yung opinions, it is the product of our minds based on experiences. Everything is part of check and balance. Kung walang pupuna sa mga di magagandang pangyayari sa komunidad ng mga run enthusiasts, magtutuloy-tuloy lang ang pansasamantala. Eventually, yung mga pansasamantala at mga pagkakamali ng mga organizers, yun ang posibleng pumatay sa sport ng running. Running should be affordable to everybody, down to the grassroots up to the well-to-do runners. Pagnauso ang matataas ng entry fees, running will lose its attractiveness, until mabawasan ang tatangkilik sa sport na ito. Sayang lang yung pinaghirapan ng ibang organizers na nagpasimula ng mga murang entry fees, abot-kaya maging ng mga average joe’s sa lipunan.

@ROTECH: Are you so annoyed & irritated with the moderators of pinoyfitness??? I have been reading a lot of your posts in every events posted here and the attitude i am getting of you is one of an arrogant,presumptious and over self-righteous person. Who do you think you are to berate pinoyfitness huh? if you don’t like the moderators’reminding bloggers to slow down on the bashing, dont join the discussion. May i remind you that they have the right to do it because THEY ARE MODERATORS IN THE FIRST PLACE! They can remove or totally restrict anyone from further posting comments if the situation warrants it, just like in your case when you and another blogger were given a warning in the QCIM discussion to refrain from posting unsavvy comments. To borrow you own words “we have the freedom to speak our minds as long as it is factual and everything doesn’t appear as false accusations or derogatory, so to speak.” You forgot that you’ve once bordered on bastos and ungentlemanly comment. Good thing that pinoyfitness removed those comments.

So stop being self righteous when some comments do not appeal to your own definition of what’s ok and not since i am in doubt of your credibility and integrity.

Reminder: I am exercising my right to free expression ;}

Pakiramdam ko po kaya ganyan kataas yan kasi may incentive lagi ang mga Ayala-affiliated companies (Globe, BPI, Glorietta, Trinoma etc) na sumali sa ganyang events kasi 50% off sila..pero off the record yun

Please post the race route,sample singlet and finisher’s medal… Takbo lang ng takbo… Peace!

Enough with the discussion on race fees. I was subtly reminded in another forum that forums like these should focus more on the run and related activities (e.g. training, groups, gears/gadgets). And I agree, even though I seethe a bit on the fees (too!). We choose where we race after all. It’s free will.

So, ako? I will run elsewhere. My choice, my race, my fun. Takbo na lang tayo!!!

Peace & world peace :)

@vbm, singlet design (and sizing) is already out. i believe pinoyfitness will be posting it here soon

as for the race map and medal, no details yet has been provided by globe. though i expect them to be out by monday

yup they said that but actually we have no
idea how much they will go to benefit run..

i know the fact they put on their pocket so, I Were them lets be picky on choosing which run to compete.. beware those so called advocacy run…. ant those too much registration fees…

@Cecille. Pls read your own post again, then compare it to my post. Mine is opinion based on facts, based on what I experienced last year and what I opined this Globe organizer is doing. Then compare my post to your post. Yung post ko opinion on what high entry fees could do to the sport of running, walang emosyon doon, nagpapahayag lang po ng isang opinyon na base sa totoong facts. Kausap ko doon si Mr. Pinoyfitness dahil nagreact din siya doon sa iba kong post na sa tingin ko ang understanding niya hinihikayat ko yung iba na huwag sumali sa race na tinutukoy ko. But try to think a bit more, may punto ba ako kung pagdudahan ko na kalokohan na P50 lang ang mapupunta sa dolphins habang P1,350 ang fees tapos advocacy mo “care for the dolphins”? Mali ba ako kung sabihin kong contrary sa advocacy ng Condura ang pagkakalat ng plastic cups at pagbibigay ng plastic bags na mabubulok lang after 50 to 75 years? Tama ba na sumingil ang Globe last year ng P700 sa P21K pero wala naman palang finisher’s medal (contrary doon sa sinabi ng staff nila na meron)? At sapat ba sa iyo ang paglalagay ng mga aroganteng bouncers sa isang race event na alam mo namang may mga pinag-aralan,executives, young professionals, istudyante, run enthusiasts at mga fitness-conscious na mga tao yung participants? Bakit may tatakbo bang lasing o kaya maghahamon ng away sa Globe Run for Home last year?

Ms. Cecille, sabi ko nga, Check and Balance ang lahat. Pagwalang pumupuna sa mga kalokohan at kamalian, pati yung kalokohan at kamalian balang araw parang tama na sa paningin ng mga bata. Ms. Cecil, di ko inaaway si Mr. Pinoyfitness, sa mga matured na tao ang tawag doon ay healthy exchanges of ideas. O huwag mo na akong awayin ha, Ms. Cecil. Ikaw rin, baka pagtawanan ka ng mga makakabasa pa ng post mo. Peace tayo.

@barefootdaves, thanks for the update. :)

@pinoyfitness: race maps/route pls? ty in advance… @cecille and rotech: peace be with the both of you :) … basta walang bashing, expletives, obscenities, libelous or derogatory remarks para sa kin pwede na… kaya lang kuminsan yung definition nung mga yun ang mejo blurred… :))

ang mahal naman nito. sasali na lang kami sa ibang race. hindi naman kami uhaw magkamedal. =)peace.

P50 goes to the selected beneficiary. to those looking for race maps, no word yet from the organizers. lets expect it to come out on monday, in time for the onsite registration

@cecille & rotech :

I think you both have points. Just go on with the exchange of ideas. just no attacks. Healthy debate is good.

@whip : totally agree with you.

Peace! Let’s run! Be selective if you want. FREE WILL!!!

Hi Cecille, peace be with you. Opinion lang po ang post ko at nung iba sa amin. Kung may reaction ako doon sa ibang reply din ni Pinoyfitness, it’s between us, di ka na dapat nanghimasok. Walang maanghang na salitang ibinato namin sa forum na ito, I respect him and as I perceived,he respects the opinion also of everyone here. Healthy exchanges of ideas lang, mam. Ramdam ko po ang galit at taray linya-por-linya ng post ninyo. Peace mam, takbo lang tayo lahat, then malayang mag-opinion. Peace to all! Hallelujah!

waw! sobrang mahal! hmmmmm.. dapat may breakdown ng expenses.. hehe.. dibale may mga ibang run naman kasabay niyan.. will not run this race..

basta ako paregister na ako mamaya sa greenbelt! see yah guys on d-day!

kasabay pala nito yung yakult 10-mile run sa CCP…P300.00 reg. fee. Alin kaya sa dalawa ang dudumugin.

I have registered online last week, yet race kit has not yet been delivered after 1 week. No contact details are provided in the web for followup.

Any feedback on the registration on the Globe Run? Anyone registered already? Parang minimum effort from Globe for information dissemination. Wala naman masyadong nakalagay sa website considering nag start na ang onsite registration. Seriously considering to skip this one…

just registered yesterday for a 21K run at greenbelt and know what…you’ll gonna love the singlet i tell you!

@fresh, if the singlet is the same as last years then it’ll be uber soft. only problem before was the length was kinda bitin. hope globe rectified that already

@barefootdaves, actually last year hindi ako nakajoin so hindi ko alam at di ko macompare. but comparing the quality to my collection of singlets, around 12 of them, i would dare say that this is so far the best!

pa post ng singlet… sorry pero wala na akong tiwala kung d rin lang runrio ang nag oorganized.. me iba pa pang freebies?.. considering na ang mahal ng registration fee..

is the singlet better than the Adidas KOTR? So far kasi ayun lang ang branded na singlet sa mga runs. Baka kaya mahal..para ka nang bumili ng good quality shirt..Im torn!

Singlet ba? Mkkabli kna ng mgandang klase sa hlgang 1050..

Pass.. Yakult ako hehe.

Kala ko Run for a Cause.
Run for a Cost pla.
Haha peace!

Bakit po expensive? mayaman naman ang Globe? Puro made in recycled matrials na nga po ang gagamitin tas mahal pa rin? Naalala ko tuloy ang bad experience ko Adidas king of the Road..Pagkatapos mo tumakbo ang pinagmamalaki nilang buffet style ay pandesal na tig do dos, isang hotdog na giniginaw sa lamig at isang pirasong saging at tubig…un lang… Bakit parang pareho kayo ng modus? Sana pag aralan nyo po maigi yung price…mahal na pamasahe eh..We love to run.. to stay fit… and stay away from drugs? pero bakit ganun?sa pera pera nauuwi…wag naman po natin gawin bizness masyado ang running kasi baka mawalan kami ng tiwala sa Globe….yan ang naging bad effect sakin ng adidas king of the road last year..1st time ko join KOTR pero yun ang worst experience ko sa adidas.Bakit sa runrio maganda system? hayyy…mag pa advice po kaya kayo sa runrio? ordinaryong runner din po ako.madAmi napo ako nasalihan running events…d ko pinagmamalaki ang runrio or not run rio fan also, pero sila lang yung nakita kong maganda mag organize from runners to sponsors, also yung MILO marathon…sa condura mahal din pero worth it dahil may magandang medal ka makukuha after the run plus nice freebies….Globe pag aralan nyo po mabuti sayang naman ang reputation ng name kung dito lang kayo masisira…tsk..tsk..

yakult nalang 16k miler…kahit wala kang communication healthy naman ang tyan =)

actually may mga points kayo…kung kaya go kung hindi naman wag na pilitin masakit talaga sa bulsa!

Actually the singlet of this run is one of the best i have last year…sobrang lambot though bitin lng ng konti dhl medyo maliit size nkuha ko…I ran 10K last year and i paid 850 pesos also but meron akong nakuha na Globe tattoo USB for internet..not bad. Cguro pass muna ako this year. doon muna ako sa mas mura.

@astrorunner, maiksi talaga ung singlet. i got XL naman last year and bitin din ung length

go yakult 300 lang me finishers shirt pa ok ka ba tyan

@pinoyfitness, i’ll do it…i’ll email you tomorrow.

kasama pala don sa mga freebies ay isang maliit na alcohol at isang sachet ng alaska nakalagay sa isang small bag na may tatak na globe.

plus finisher’s certificate….

to those runners who really want to join pero having 2nd thoughts dahil sa registration fee, i suggest you gather up your running buddies and register as a group. sayang din ung kaunting matitipid. kung namamahalan pa din, me alternatives naman po :)

@pinoyfitness, please check your email.

done with registration… sa Yakult nga lang.
Happy na ang tiyan, happy pa ang wallet ko.
Sorry Globe, I have turn you down this time. Better luck next time.

can you post the 21k route map? i already received my race pack but it did not contain any map. thanks.

JUST DID A ONLINE REGISTRATION FOR TWO PEOPLE LAST WEEK.WHY,TILL NOW WE HAVENT GOT AN EMAIL CONFIRMATION FOR OUR REGISTRATION. THANKS AND MORE POWER.

grabe naman ang mahal… almost twice from last year. Unless this is a Rio event or an out of town event plus plus a whole lot of new experience why not?~?~? but the thing is each year it’s gettin’ expensive… and maybe kahit gusto ng mga tumakbo baka they won’t join na din.

I have lots of friends who want to join pero ayaw na nila kasi nga hanggang 300-500 lang abot kaya. imagine weekly takbo ka- 1K each week… thats 4K a month… tsk tsk… not to mention other gastos like energy gels and eat out… tsk tsk… sana those organizers hindi itake advantage ang sport na running… baka marame na madiscourage…

Join na lang kayo sa Baguio 21K… 600 lang pero 21K na… at least whole new experience… don’t see the point of running sa super mahal… Yeah i agree with Hops about KOTR parang binayaran mo lang ang singlet na may tatak na adidas… pwedeng isama ang QC IM sa worst organized running event???

@Hops: i think this year, Rio will organize KOTR – kaya I might join…

join run for light balanga bataan… bataan known kay baldrunner,kay medyo takot yata ang di nagmamarathon sa bataan.haha this time balanga naman offering a fun run very affordable price and attractive prize. from 250-350, you have singlet and bib and prize is up to 7k! i think they will have a free bus ride ROUDTRIP from pasay, cubao, avenida, trinoma, pampanga, sm sanfernando, baguio etc. they will announce it daw.

Will be joining Yakult 10 Miler instead of Globe Run for Home on March 27th.

Yakult registration at Mizuno Megamall, Trinoma and Bonifacio High Street until March 21- all categories @ Php 300.00.

Run wisely guys :-)

me too. yakult then out town naman. either baguio or bataan!

ang mahal naman.. di naman gaano ka organize…. well i will not run and im not excited… runf for fun ginawang business.. ano ba yan! wag naman..do some marketing collect less to globe subscriber, di ba!and less to old Globe runners…. think of something that can generate participants w less payments and think of something that can create more subscription to ur network… wag niyong ibuhos lahat ng babayaran sa runners….

sa bataan ako. maiba naman. affordable and new environment. malapit pa sa subic. ayos!

Too commercialized.

Ang mahal.

I encourage my fellow runners to boycott this event. Mahal ng fees, same race route.

Nakakasawa na sa BGC ok?

@pinoyfitness – any further explaination about the reusable timing chip. thank you!

Sana next time if you do such project na ganito.. take all the responsible donation since its your project and let the runner run for a healthy life.. so u support two causes.. for the charity which you handled it and for the individual who is willing to run for a healthy life… di ba ang ganda….wag ibigay ang cost sa runners….:) dahil ba maraming gusto mag run….
