EYE RUN 2012: Light from Darkness – March 11, 2012

12K at Php800. As much as I wanted to join its too expensive for me. If you could lower it to 500 or 600 Im sure maraming sasali even without a finishers shirt. Look at Discovery Channels vertical run. They over priced themselves at P1,000 for a 10k run now they are selling it as a register one free one. Sayang ang cause St. Lukes. You have to remember there are a lot of good hearted runners out there but P800 may just be too much for them

nakakatuwa, kung ano ung nakasulat sa poster yun din ang naka sulat sa singlet, kumpleto detalye,,,

nice siglet!

If you charge 800, people will expect medals and shirts from you guys. Since this is an advocacy run, you’re gonna say no. tubong lugaw naman ata yun pag 800 tapos walang makukuha, even for “charity” halos lahat naman ng runs may cause.

my finishers medal b ung 12k, kasi subrang mahal ng registration fee, kung meron sasali kami,tnx

Sorry, sobrang mahal. 12 km eh 800? Remember, mas mura, mas maraming tatakbo, mas maraming funds. =)

Baka lahat magtinginan pagsuot natin yan.

I like the singlet. Nice :) as an Optometrist that’s really cute. Will join the run. Count me in.
But, what are the squares for at the back of the singlet?

I don’t know if St. Lukes knows but Asian Hospital’s 21K run on the 26th costs only P750 and for that amount runners will get:

1. The usual Race bib & Singlet
2. Finishers medal
3. Finishers shirt
4. Bus ride to the event.

Oh, and of course, its also for charity.

hehe.

grabe nmn ang st lukes. mahal na nga fees nila sa hospital. pati ba nmn sa fun run.

harrr.

Seriously P800 for a 12K run??? Tapos singlet lang?

Run United 1’s 21K race costs P900 yet madaming runners nagreklamo for the price increase of P100 vs. 2011. Its one of the much awaited run of the year yet some are thinking whether to join or not because of the steep fees.

Btw, for Run United’s 900 registration fee, 21k runners will get a medal, a finishers shirt and a finishers bag and since its a Unilab and Run Rio event, expect lots of goodies in the loot bag.

Good luck to that!

sayang..we would like to join but 800. is too expensive for a 12k run… sa Takbu’to na lang ako join..

Let’s activate our gesture of assistance, mga friends…

Acdg to Organizers, may Free RUNNR racing/ running belt for first 200 registrants!

the organizers must have a reason for setting their registration fees. if it is too high then go elsewhere. madami pa naman fun run as some of you have already pointed out

Mahal naman P800 ang 12K singlet lang ang inclusion. Pass ako dito hanap ng mas mura and mas sulit na run.

Lahat naman tayo eh hindi pinipilit na tumakbo sa mga race events na mahal. Ang point lang dito, di na makatakbo yung mga low budgeted na runners. Nagco- compare din naman tayo syempre. Kung for a cause, eh di mas maganda. Pero sana makapag donate din sa charity yung mahihirap na runners… =)

TO ALL Runner/Readers

Good day!

After reading, we will respect all your comments, accept, deliberate and analyze :) Our apology if the declared registration fees, might or truly disappoint you all. We can guarantee all who will participate that the registration fees will be fully used for the eye operation of pediatric patients in Mt Province (suffers from the so-called “blue eyes”).

Please wait for our further announcements and changes. As much as possible we also wanted to return a favor and blessing to all the good deeds that this event may gather.

Thank you and God bless us all. Again our deepest apology.

PS Please be reminded that runner’s belt will be for raffle prizes. Thank you “)

wow bait nmn ng eye run organizer, reply agad agad…..buti p cla di tulad ng s BDO bank nabingi n yata, ehhehehehe. sna po nxt tym ear run nmn pra s mga bingi t ngbibingibingihan….mukhang may medal all categories ahh, hehhehehe…abusado aq…wait q lng ung further announcement then we will register….godbless

babaan nyo na lang po registration fee tapos hanap kau more sponsors… konting effort naman in finding sponsors. thanks.

Buti pa kayo Eye Run organizer – nag response ka agad, Saludo ako sa inyo…

From what I heard, this event is organized by the doctors and the fund will go directly to their social development group (yun ba tawag dun?).

Hi to everyone here. I must admit kami rin namahalan sa reg fees but it was necessary kasi ang hirap kumuha ngayon ng sponsor who’s willing to give out cash. But we hear you so we’ve decided to lower the reg fees for 6k to P600 and 12k to P700(3k remains the same).
Thank you so much for all your comments and suggestions:) We will post updates soon.
Hi cyanide09,
Yes the funds will go to our service (charity) patients. This is managed by the Social Service (SS) Office of St.Luke’s:)

@dr.jing

marami po talagang gustong tumulong at mkitakbo in this event. thank you po for lowering the reg fees for the 6K and 12K categs.

Binaba na nila yung price range, okay na yun. Wag naman tayong magreklamo fellow runners. =) Ang bait masyado ng organizer no, pinapakinggan tayo…

12K? aba iba yan ah (good)!
Wow! ang ganda ng singlet!
I also prefer BGC as a location for race and I like the cause of SLMC
kaso
Please, keep the registration at P500 or lower, marami siguradong tatakbo rito, basta lower registration.

para sa mga minamahal kong tga- Mt Province, tatakbo ko. :-)

@Dr Jing, thanks! I will definitely be joining this race together with my gf who is an optha-OR nurse from your hospital.

Thank you for all the comments
we are really trying very hard to make this Run a success
It’s so hard to look for sponsors who will give us cash but most of them are ex deals!!!
we can assure you that it’s not a waste of your time and money to join this event!
The final singlet will be posted.
See you all on march 11

mahal

Guys, the prices might be high but 100% of the reg fees will go to the eye surgeries of the beneficiaries. Sigurado kayo walang makikinabang dito kung hindi yung mga pasyenteng kailangang igamot.

grabe naman ang st. lukes…. dapat dyan re organize nyo po kung hindi wala pong sasali dyan at mababaliwala ang advocacy nyo… so think about it organizer…. thank you.

Sali ako dyan!

I think the current price of the reg fee are as follows:

3k – 500
6k – 600
12k – 700

Di lang updated ung sa taas.

To ALL Runners/Readers

3K – P500
6K – P600
12K – P700

Group Promo – 5 + 1 (Bib only)

For other surprises and promo; TBA

Thank you and God bless us all

tingin ko medyo mahal compare with the dzmm run.

the well organized fund-raising event last year for the “Run for Japan” (earthquake victims) was reasonably priced at Php 350.00 with singlet. And this event was well attended by runners and non-runners to support the cause. I believed that St Luke’s can do the same so more runners can join and generate more funds by doing so.

nu po prizes sa race n ito??

for the group rate, should everyone run the same distance? sana pwedeng mixed categories as long as the free bib is of the lowest category.

Sino pong pwedeng makontak sa event na ito? email address, mobile or any will do. Thanks

You can call/text dr jing Jimenez – 09175277172
Or imman -09278756671
Thanks

@Inquiry
regarding what matter po?

The registration fees are reasonable. Eye operation and treatments are costly. So lets help our brothers and sisters in Mt. Province to see better in order to be productive citizens in the future.

Asian Hospital’s 21K run on the 26th costs only P750 and for that amount runners will get:

1. The usual Race bib & Singlet
2. Finishers medal
3. Finishers shirt
4. Bus ride to the event.

Oh, and of course, its also for charity.

Eye Run
NEW Registration Fees
3K – P500
6K – P600
12K –P700

look nyo comparison nitong dalawa

Thanks for the comparison @CitizenWatch.
At this point, we just need to let everyone choose na lang kung anong event ang sasalihan ng mga tao – lalo na pag may usaping registration fee. Running for charity is out of the question kasi halos lahat naman ng events may kadikit na cause or bene.

In any case, may PF Monthly LSD din naman na libre – walang singlets, bring yer own tubig. Fun din naman yun. FOr sure meron ulit lulutuing LSD ang PF sa March – abang abang na lang.

We’re cooking up something big for all runners..watch out for it..

Lucky to have a complimentary race kit from a previous contest in one of the Running store! Thanks i will have a chance to run in this event! I chose the 12k Category! See you there peeps!

ewan ko na lng kung may masabi pa po kayo sa dami ng give aways for 500 reg. thanks po eyerun

Kelan deadline ng submission ng entry?

nice nmn nito hnggang kelan reg?

bat wala pong timing device ung bib number? ask lng.

kakaregister ko lng e

@Heimon Ambac

perhaps it is to trim down cost to the organizers. i suspect they will use a manual approach which is fairly acceptable. accuracy is usually within 30 seconds (+/-)

hmm ok tnx!

Sana lahat ng race organizers, ganito. Pinapakinggan mga comments and suggestions ng runners. Kahit si coach Rio, di sumasagot sa trend eh. I hope this run will be very successful because of the great organizing committee…

tama ka po dyan… :-)

vertical runner: Sana lahat ng race organizers, ganito. Pinapakinggan mga comments and suggestions ng runners. Kahit si coach Rio, di sumasagot sa trend eh. I hope this run will be very successful because of the great organizing committee

agree po ako sa iyo brow… sana nga lang din yung ibang organizer is pinapakinggan yung hiling ng karamihan… hindi katulad ng iba porke’t alam nilang maraming sumasali sa event nila kahit napakamahal ay pinipilit pa rin…

I just hope that race organization the doctors hired will execute the race well. Sana sufficient ang hydration stations at may mga marshalls along the route. Hirap kasi baka mamaya masisi ang doctors, kahit nagcave-in na sila sa demand ng mga runners, dahil may pumalpak sa race nila. Personally, I don’t want this to happen kasi my gf tells me how hard the doctors are working to make this event work.

My wife and I are looking forward to this run. It’s for charity so we really don’t mind the registration fee. We do hope though that there will be ample water/hydration stations, lots of marshals to keep the route safe for runners and a clearly marked out route with traffic cones to prevent cars from straying into the race route.
