The race date for the upcoming Rexona Run 2012 has finally been released! Time to save the date guys! Outdo Yourself at the upcoming Rexona Run 2012 on August 12, 2012 to be held at SM Mall of Asia!

Rexona Run 2012- Outdo Yourself!
August 12, 2012 postponed to September 23, 2012
SM Mall of Asia!
5K/21K/21K Relay

[UPDATE as of 8-8-2012]

Dear Runners,

Due to the heavy rains, we will be postponing the REXONA RUN 2012 event to SEPTEMBER 23, Sunday still at the Mall of Asia grounds. We feel that due to the current calamity, it would be inappropriate to still push through with the event. We have taken into consideration that a lot of the runners may be living in affected areas, and that our route marshals are part of the AFP so they will be busy with relief operations.

Instead, we will be focusing our efforts on relief operations this weekend, particularly in Marikina. You are very much welcome to participate or help out in any way. More details will be posted soon.

Thank you for understanding. Please stay safe and dry!

Coach Rio

  1. @quicksilver

    yakult was supposedly ‘supervised’ by patafa but ended up with a distance not equivalent to what was advertised. this is one example of ‘you get what you pay for’. venue isn’t the major contribution of cost

  2. May isang tao nagsabi na bakit hindi daw magpa-run sa mrt or lrt line. Saan tatakbo ang mga runners? Sa riles?. Hahahaha. Sige nga.

    Maluwag kasi ang mga kalsada na pinipiling venue ng mga organizers. Kung marami lang kalsada dito na maluwag at accessible sa mga runners eh madami ring venues.

    Next time sa SLEX or NLEX naman para maiba. Hahahaha :D

  3. Sasali na rin ako sa kabaklaan! ;)

    Ang mahalaga sa’kin ay well-organized at masaya!

    Kahit ano mangyari, mahal pa rin ako ng misis at anak ko. =)

  4. P900 ang 21K individual. Therefore, expensive ang run na ‘to. Pero Runrio race ‘to, so most probably you’ll get your money’s worth.

  5. @Basuraboy, @Barefootdaves:

    So since ito ang first official run ko nun Aug 2010, myembro na rin pala ako ng federasyon? Tama ba kami @jayzjorge? Btw.. sasali pa rin ako d2 dahil runniversary run ko ‘to… :)

  6. Good day co-runners
    Maghanda na ng pang-register, 900 @ 21K, ganda ng singlet same din ng finisher’s shirt at medal.
    Runanniversary ko ito kaya 21K ako dito… Kita kita tayo sa July 12.
    @ jayzjorge
    pangbakla ba? Sana lang… Hehehe
    Yeeesss…

  7. Paano yan, isa akong closet na bading. pag sumali ako dito “confirmed” na ako. Pero okay lang sasali pa rin ako kahit pang kabaklaan lang ang run na ito. No disrespect to all ladlad sisterettes.

  8. BKIT WALANG 10K WAHHHHHH
    dami pa namn kaming tatakbo sa 10k tas tinanggal namn, go REGENT nalng ako tatakbo….
    ito sana ang reg namin sa Rexona
    -3k 3person -5k 2person
    -10k 16person -21k 0person

    dissapointing run event….. tsk tsk tsk

  9. @oiRunner: wala pong 10K kasi merong 21K 2-man relay. Meaning 2 people po yung kasali and they will both run 10.5K each. So parang 10K na rin. If you have 16 runners for 10K, you will have 8 pairs sa 21K Relay. Hehehe. Diba? Ganun din naman po. :)

  10. @monds
    masyadong mahaba ang time kung relay bka umabot 2:30 to 3 hours ang 21, i’m still thinking. thanks for the suggestion

    sana may 10 or 16 :D

  11. @ben

    Next time sa SLEX or NLEX naman para maiba. Hahahaha :D

    Tama! tpos dadaan ka toll gate at kukuha ng ticket to serve as your km marker. sana mas mura kapag dito sa lugar na ito tatakbo.

  12. 5k ang price 700 @ 21k ang price 900 individual po i2. Ung 21k relay 1600 po ung 2 persons. Mgkaiba ung bib design ng individual dun s relay n 21k. My display n s site ng runrio about s run n i2. Tlga disappointing cya kc sobrang mhal @ d mkamasa ung presyo. Bket d nla gayahin ung Milo Marathon mura ung price pangmasa p? Mgisip kau qng sasali p po kau bsta aq PASS muna d2 can afford d price eh. Gudluck n lng po.

  13. @todopasa: oo nga eh. mukha tuloy taga benta ng Rexona yung magsusuot ng Finishers Shirt. Hahahaha. :D Sana medyo i-tweek ng organizers na pwedeng i-pang casual attire yung mga finisher’s shirt. Inaalikabok lang sa cabinet yung akin eh. Pambahay lang din kapag mainit. Hayyyyss. Sayang lang.

  14. mas maganda kung sa lower part ng finisher shirt nkalagay marking “21K Finisher” para di na mabago location nung Runrio at Powerade sa upper portion. suggestion lang naman…thanks

  15. @boybuhok:

    madrigal business district as a race venue is free? i hope you are right because this is highly doubtful considering the traffic, garbage and police assistance that a race will require.

    @ jayzjorge:

    stop name calling just to make a dull comment. to say the runrio runners are bakla is uncalled for. runrio runners deserve finisher items considering the registration fees.

  16. agree ako sau iamnoel. basta kmi tatakbo kami dito. pera namin pinambabayad namin kaya kung maghanap man kami finisher shirt, medal o ano pa man yan eh dahil kasama sa binayaran. di naman sya pinipilit kung ayaw nya sumali dito. cguro mas maganda kung umpisahan na nya i-organize naisip nya patakbo sa lrt o mrt wala naman cguro pipigil sa kanya.

  17. @mariner:

    exactly! logic dictates that runners deserve the best finisher items considering the escalating registration fees.

    wala naman sigurong maghahanap ng finisher item kung libre ang patakbo.

  18. Can someone please answer my question! KUNG UNG 21K RELAY PO BA BOTH FINISHERS WILL RECEIVE A MEDAL O ONE LANG PO BA?

  19. @Aly: I think dalawa. Considering that you will pay Php800 for 10.5km eh mukhang lugi naman kung di ka makakareceive ng medal. Meron naman yata both pero mas maliit kesa sa 21k solo. :)

  20. My Reasons not to join Rexona Run 2012:

    – Based on the design of the singlet, medal, and finisher’s shirt, I will be a walking, talking, breathing, running endorser of Rexona Men. Ang masaklap pa is they called the shirt “Finisher’s Shirt”. They should have called it “Rexona Men Shirt”.

    – I am required to pay Php900 to run, sweat, get tired, and also endorse their product. Diba dapat they should pay us instead for endorsing Rexona?

    – By just looking at the medal and the so-called Finisher’s Shirt, no one will know that you finished a 21K run. Unless you will turn the medal 180degrees and see the engraved “21K Finisher” text. The finisher’s shirt will not show anything except “Rexona Men” and that it came from Runrio and Powerade.

    – No charitable cause. No advocacy. Magugulat ka na lang na kapag marami ng nakapansin eh bigla na lang “This Run is for the benefit of EK EK EK Charity..”

    – I expected more from Runrio. Habang tumatagal at nagdadaan ang panahon eh mas lalong nagiging commercialized and profit-focused ang mga patakbo nila.

    – This run is clearly for the benefit of Rexona and their endorsement of its products.

    These are just my opinions. I dont think I have offended anyone so please kindly respect it. If you want to run here, please do. Its a matter of choice and I chose not to.

    “I run for fitness, for a cause, for an advocacy, and for the benefit of those in need. You? Why do you run?” – Anonymous

  21. I agree. Please include the 21km distance in the finisher’s shirt. I’m planning to make this my HM debut. It will be a good souvenir to get a finisher’s shirt that says the distance. As for the price, I’d still probably sign up. Runrio is a quality organization so I think they’ll more likely cover everything.

  22. Absolutely right Runner. magmumukha tayong endorser ng rexona pag suot natin shirt. We will not join this run unless “21K Finisher” was imprinted at the back of the shirt. pahinga nlang muna cguro kami after 42K sa milo.

  23. @runner:

    i agree with most of your comments namely the finisher shirt without the text 21K finisher and the absence of event beneficiary. but we must accept that races are marketing events sponsored by interest groups who wants to promote their products/services. that is the plain truth and what we can do is just support those interest groups that we believe in.

    e.g. if you believe that nestle is a honest corporate citizen and a manufacturer of healthy products then join milo marathon.

  24. Baka ako lang siguro ang gusto na plain lang ang finisher shirt…

    Favorite finisher shirt ko eh yung timex 2009 ko, plain na run rio lang na tech shirt… hanggang ngayon sinusuot ko pa sya.
    Plain white na may logo lang ng run rio sa harap. Honestly, ayaw ko yung merong mga nakalagay na 42, 32, 21 finisher sa likod… obvious naman na natapos yung distance at kaya may shirt.

  25. haay… tipid mode na lang muna ngayon para maka ipon ng reg fee.

    eto lang ang 21k tempo run ng august bago mag tacloban.

    2 paid races for August, pwede na siguro ito.

  26. looking at the shirt, id prefer not having any text at the back. for runrio races, ung longest distance (typically half mary) lang naman ang meron finishers shirt

    “By just looking at the medal and the so-called Finisher’s Shirt, no one will know that you finished a 21K run. Unless you will turn the medal 180degrees and see the engraved “21K Finisher” text. The finisher’s shirt will not show anything except “Rexona Men” and that it came from Runrio and Powerade”

    ——————–

    i suggest one to review the races since 2010. not just coming from runrio but also from other organizers as well. rexona has been a staple event and drawn a lot of crowd. this is one of the many races that i look forward to every year

    “I expected more from Runrio. Habang tumatagal at nagdadaan ang panahon eh mas lalong nagiging commercialized and profit-focused ang mga patakbo nila. ”

    ——————–

    good point. last year runrio slated their so-called “run for love” which focuses on races with beneficiaries. i hope many of us supported that. i did. heck i already missing the bottle run launched in 2010. hindi na naulit

    to address the point, 2011 had Field of Dreams in Smokey Mountain and Gawad Kalinga as beneficiaries. i’m not aware if there’s any for this year. i will ask

    “No charitable cause. No advocacy. Magugulat ka na lang na kapag marami ng nakapansin eh bigla na lang “This Run is for the benefit of EK EK EK Charity”

    ——————–

    it is the main sponsor and which is why the event is dubbed as “Rexona Run” since its maiden launch in 2010

    “This run is clearly for the benefit of Rexona and their endorsement of its products”

    ——————–

    no one is being forced to sign up for this event

    “I am required to pay Php900 to run, sweat, get tired, and also endorse their product. Diba dapat they should pay us instead for endorsing Rexona? “

  27. kasi kaming dalawa ng wife ko sasali sa relay, kasi Couple run kami dito kung sakali.. kasi wala kaming natakbuhan nung july 1, 2012 anniversary namin kaya dito nalang kami sa Relay run ng Rexona tatakbo for our anniversary run.. hope na makasali kami.. pero tingin ko parehas kaming merong medal at finisher shirt diba…
    GOD BLESS US…

  28. The singlet is nice, the finisher’s shirt is also nice by the same time the medal also. Pero medyo mahal T_T baka pwedeng babaan ng 100-150 pesos in each race category.

  29. @ake12:

    well considering a difference of just P200 between rexona 21K (P900) versus regent 16K (700) the former has a competitive advantage against the latter such as a longer route and
    finisher shirt. for the finisher loot bag it depends on whether runners are looking for snacks or deodorant. :-)

    this is just a personal opinion and not meant to promote rexona run.

  30. ganda ng finisher shirt.

    ilan naman kaya ngayon ang mawawalan?
    or magkaubusan ng sizes?

    mga problemang di maayos ng runrio.

    sana di mangyari dito

  31. .,mukhang d2 aq unang tatakbo ng 21k.,this is what i’ve been waiting for.,nice singlet, nice finisher’s shirt at medal,.sulit ang paghihintay.,21k here i come!!

  32. .,bka pwede malagyang ng “21K FINISHER” ung likod ng finisher’s shirt para nman may ebidensya na talgang natapos ung 21k.,pls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  33. Rexona dapat finisher shirt and medal rin sa relay run ng 21km, or kahit isang finisher shirt race belt plus 2 finishers medal relay 21km, para mas oks diba mga co runners…

  34. opo nga, mas ok siguro kung may “21K Finisher” sa likod ng finisher’s shirt. :)

    sana po, mabigyan ng pansin yung mga suggestion namin.

    thanks and regards sa lahat. :)

  35. hmm.. dami reklamo sa presyo ng rexona ah.

    rexona 900Php, 21Km = 42.85Php /Km
    regent 700Php, 16Km = 43.75Php /Km

    kung sa kilometro lang ang paguusapan, obvious na mas mura ang rexona.

    Marami talaga nakafocus sa 700 vs 900 pero hindi naman na consider na mas malayo yung sa Rexona.

    Disclaimer though, I run for the Kms not for the finisher’s kit, freebies etc.

    Pero syempre, wala pa rin tatalo sa Milo (11 pesos per Km sa 42k), Earth Run 2012 (16 pesos) at yung abnormal na Hyundai (bawal division by zero wehehehe)

  36. @mark

    if you’re running for “KM” you don’t have to pay naman. you can go out and run anywhere gang makalayo ka ng takbo.

    and if you’re comparing price base sa KM, bat di mo din ipag compare ung price per KM ng lower distances hindi lang ung 21km na P900 vs 16km na P700. like ung 5km nito vs dun sa isa :)

    ang masasabi ko lang.. though “sulit” nga siguro ang run na to dahil sa mga matatanggap na freebies after the run.. still, hindi parin para sa lahat ang run na to kasi hindi maka masa ang presyo.

    most run events ngayon ay pricey na at hindi ito nakakatulong na ma-encourage ang mga baguhan sa sport ng pagtakbo :)

  37. torotooooot – I agree with you…we are running for fun with all the runners and not sa km run lng.. and its more fun na tumakbo kung alam mo n may marereceive kang souvenir from them n every time n mkikita mo eh msasabe mo uy ang saya ng takbo nmin jan. un tipong wow ntapos ko ung run n yan at e2 un proof ng paghihirap ko sa praktis pra matapos ko ung run event n yan…

  38. @mark:

    sa totoo lang mas mura ang rexona 21K dahil sa singlet, finisher shirt, finisher medal at complimentary deodorant.

    sa regent 16K kasi singlet at finisher medal lang. siya nga pala may comlimentary junk foods. :-)

  39. “most run events ngayon ay pricey na at hindi ito nakakatulong na ma-encourage ang mga baguhan sa sport ng pagtakbo :)”

    kaya naghahanap ako ng free kit or magpapatakbo ng bib nila due to unexpected circumstances (in short: Run For Hire ang tema lol) :) hahaha

  40. @ mark,

    Hi! Yun nga prob ko eh – wala ako buddy!

    Yung mga kasama ko may mga partners na or will run individually… =(

    First 16K ko ay sa Springboard. I need to train more for the half-mary. =)

  41. @iamnoel @mark I think you both got it wrong. Regent have Finisher shirt with 16K marking, a medal (ALL 5k,10k and 16k will get), a gift pack (after the run) and the free canister with not only snacks but also sponge cakes and coffee (upon registration).

    I’m from the marketing field and I can see how much are we gonna pay for the brand here instead of the run (we are actually paying to be their human promos/billboards unlike being proud that we’ve ran that long :p) and the souvenirs that we’ll be getting afterwards.

    Both of course want publicity for their brand but I can see that my payment (if ever for regent) will go to Philippine Red Cross. it’s rainy season now and expect disasters again. my money will be used for that.

    But at the end of the day, it’s our decision and preference that’ll prevail. :) run for the satisfaction that you’ve joined a runrio event or run for fun and freebies. :) think smart!

  42. .,check nyo din ung quality nung singlet o shirt.,potek yn ung singlet d2 compare mo sa regent parang low quality lng ung sa regent pangit p ng kulay.,eww.,

    .,sa organizer, BASA BASA DIN KC NG MGA COMMENTS PARA MALAMAN NYO UNG SIDE NG MGA RUNNERS!

  43. astig ang design ng shirt at medal. sana maaga mag-advice ang unilever if they will give a free registration for the employees……

  44. @jepoy – pano mo nalamang low quality yung singlet ng iba? hinawakan mo na ba and tinrace mo kung saan galing yung tela?

    again, we are not forced to join any run. pero it doesn’t mean na kelangan manira. I hope that gets into your system as well as to the future commentators.

    My issue naman is I’m kinda hesitant on the “Rexona Men” label sa singlet. Though yun yung brand na pinu-push nila. As they are general on the name “Rexona Run 2012”, I hope kahit “Rexona Run” na lang nakalagay. Or else change the run name as “Rexona Men Run”. But obviously, they can’t narrow that down, sayang ang exposure ng rexona as a whole.

    sana you consider that.

  45. @torotooooot

    yes sir, I run everywhere kahit bandit (bad bad). Naniniwala ako na running is and should be free.

    I treat paid 21k races as tempo runs… at least hindi ko na iisipin ang hydration / secure / safe na yung route. Hirap lang talaga ako bumilis kung hindi race… daming iniisip. Wala naman akong taga abot ng powerade.. hehehe kaya bayad na lang ng race pa minsan minsan.

    BTW, I do not join *ALL* races… magastos kaya. sumasali lang ako kung may kailangan lang pag ensayuhan… yung rexona, sakto para sa tacloban sa aug 18.

    kaya ko naman nasabi eh malaki kasi yung focus na mahal yung 900 para sa 21k. Pero syempre, mas mahal talaga ang rexona kung 5k ang tatakbuhin…

  46. @Ken comment 188

    kaso yung 21k ang kailangan kong itakbo eh. Kaso wala sa regent.

    BTW, hindi ako rin interested sa loot / shirt / medal etc… basta mabigyan lang ng magandang course na ang iisipin ko na lang eh tumakbo. wehehehe

    Hindi ako tumatakbo ng event dahil runrio… I also run small races / provincial races. Basta ang importante eh magkaprovide sila ng magandang at safe na run.

    Kaya ko napili ang rexona, eh dahil 21k sya at sakto pang ensayo para sa tacloban.

    Kung gusto ko naman tumakbo para sa cause o charity … hindi na lang ako mag reg… directly na lang i-donate sa charity of choice yung pera para walang bawas.

    Now walking billboards… that is if you wear the finisher shirt. I usually donate the unused singlets / finisher shirts to those in need. Buti na lang at merong box ng caritas sa lobby ng tinitigilan namin. Ayun doon ko nilagay lahat ng mga naipon ko shirts / singlets na hindi ko naman nagamit. Actually mas gusto ko nga kung pwedeng bib na lang ang bilhin… kahit less 50 o 100 sa reg fee. Yung medal baka makabawas din ng at least 50 pesos.

    May kanya kanya tayong rason para tumakbo. Sa akin, bonus lang ang finisher’s shirt o medal o loot bag… Hindi ito factor para piliin ko ang isang patakbo sa iba.

  47. As per kulit runner may special token para sa mga sub 2 hours sa 21k at sub 30 minutes sa 5k

    Ayos. incentive on not just finishing, but finishing quick!!!

    Will do my best to break a new PR. Theme nila ngayon outdo yourself. Sana mag align ang lahat ng planeta para maka 1:3x na.
