Run For Light – July 21, 2012

Mahal ang race na to! haha

tapos bring ur own gadgets pa.. panu nlng ung mga walang hydration equipment.. too bad..

@TrueLove: maganda naman ang adhikain nila eh. Suportahan na lang natin. Para din naman sa mga kababayan nating kapus-palad ang run na ito.

I do understand kung bakit no cups will be provided. Within their advocacy naman yung rule na yun. Di naman kailangan ng as in mamahaling hydration equipment. Mura lang naman ang isang 500ml na bote ng mineral water. Pwede naman siguro na yun na lang gamitin. One-time lang naman and up to 10k lang din naman ang longest distance. Hehehe.

ngek! cguradong pila to bgo k mkainom ng tubig..

@Brad
Sir, Research before you react.. Sa babayaran, Alamin kaya muna natin magkano mapupunta sa kapus palad compare sa mapupunta sa organizer.. :)

sa pagtulong GO tau dyan basta legitimate cause pero meron nmn ibang run dyan na makakatulong dhil may mga adhikain din nmn.. Sana lang ung tipong hindi dehado mga runners.. Opinyon lang po..

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

meron na po ba singlet design?

iba pala ‘to sa LITER OF LIGHT.. mas mahal kasi solar lamp ang ipro-provide sa mga underprivileged.

I agree with TrueLove, mahal nga ang race na ‘to at di lahat may hydration equipment! Good luck naman, tatakbo kang may dala-dalang 500 ml na water bottle. Tama si Zaldee, super HABAAAAAA nga ng pila bago ka siguro makapag-refill. Unless may mga drum na sasalok ka na lang ng tubig.. Eeeew nga lang! Haha! :))

10k and bring your own water? no problem. dapat naman talaga na di bini-baby mga runners sa mga hydration nila. pag nagpra-pratice/training ba kayo, nagse-set up kayo ng hydration niyo? hahaha… sasali ako dito.

10k and bring your own water? no problem. sasali ako dito. dapat naman talaga na di bini-baby mga runners sa mga hydration nila. pag nagpra-pratice/training ba kayo, nagse-set up kayo ng hydration stations niyo? tips naman kung paano niyo ginagawa. hahaha…

500ml na bottled water lng nmn dadalhin natin,, ok na un… mas mganda nga dalawang bottled water para balance

Yup.. I do agree with TrueLove.. The registration is TOO MUCH compare to other race with water hydrations.. Kung ang runners pa proproblema sa sa water anu nalang gagawin ni organizer..

sa tingin ko, para lang maka excuse si organizer mapuna.. para di sila maisisi kung nagkulang man sila sa tubig o sa cups kaya pinagdadala mga runners ng sarisariling water gears.. TSSK!

solar energy foundation is a holistic organization as documented by the motorcycle diaries shown at gmanews tv channel 11. but given the above average registration fees and hydration issues it is doubtful that this race will muster the needed number of registrants. let us hope that the organizers will tweak the race details to convince most runners to join.

Bring your own hydration … no problem … I’m in. For a good cause.

Hi. I think they’re just pushing for a green run and not merely for the organizers to have an excuse. A responsible runners know what he is ought to do. :)

Since this is a “green race”, please bring your own hydration equipment. No cups will be provided during the race, but there will be water stations where you can fill up your hydration equipment.

“this is a big mistake from the organizer pag ginawa nila ito… pwede namang hindi gumamit ng plastic cup sa ibang pagkakataon pero hindi sa long distance running… ilalagay nila sa alanganin ang buhay ng mga tatakbo dito… nawa’y magbago pa sila ng pag-iisip kung gusto nilang tangkilikin adbokasiya nila …

since 10k is the longest distance, hydration not a big issue here. unless you will finish it by more than 90 minutes.

@rod: you have a point because a seasoned runner can finish a 10K distance without hydration. how? load up a 500-ml sports drink before running and you can last the 10K distance. this is what i had been doing during weekends under the condition that the run is for fun and not for PR.

For me parang Pure business lang to.. Mahal na hindi pa complete amenities.
Regular run na lang ako.

hayy finally, isang race na kung saan walang kalat na plastic cups sa daan ng mga runners na walang pakialam sa environment.

And you’re wondering why they made an issue out of the litter in NatGeo Earth Day run? Dapat ganito na rin ginawa nila doon para di na napasama tayong mga runners sa media.

Yes to bringing (green) light to the dark corners of the country.

skycable runners will support this run…

just imagine the cost from the organizers if they provide a cup. this can be use instead as an additional money that can be given to our needy kababayans.

takbo lang ng takbo

dito malalaman kung runner ka

@boycanrun

“dito malalaman kung runner ka”

paano po malalaman?

dami talaga maarteng runner ngaun.. d na kelangan sa cups pa nakalagay.. tama dala kayo bottled water.. tsaka di naman talaga ganon kamahal ang hydration equipment pede pag ipunan. nakakabili nga kayo ng sapatos, shorts at nakakapagregister eh.

@onin

penge pambili ng hydration equipment! Sa amount ng registration.. mahal compare sa other run na complete amenities.. parehas lang sa takbo para kay tito bugoy run last weekend sa mechanics pero at least yun free..

@barefootdaves…d ba pag nagpractice run ka..ala naman water station?…may dala ka lang bottled water..parang ganun lang…he he he

sa totoo lang hindi naman kailangan ng water station. 10K lang ito mga tsong! relax lang kayo. :-D

baka nga ala din singlet to eh..he he he

Ung tutoong tumatakbo para makatulong di na maghahanap pa ng kung anu ano. Tama naman di ba sa mga practice runs ba o LSD nyo me hydration station ba kayo? Puntahan nyo muna ung site nila para malaman nyo anu-ano na ang nagawa nila. Sila din ung Bike for Light at sila rin ung Climb for Light. Yung maaarte di ito ang takbuhan para sa inyo. Dun kayo sa mas mahal pa dito na punong puno ng freebies at punong puno ng basura pagkatapos din ng takbuhan. Walang pilitan to… =)

Sasali ako!

ok lang if bring your own hydration gear…simpleng bottle lang will already do..its a good cause naman eh..ill be supporting this.

Gusto ko sana kaya lang wala reg sa Trinoma D nalang :D

mga kaibigan, 10Km lang naman yan. for me as an amateur runner, I can finish this without hydrating my self. a runner in GREAT CONDITION can finish this without hydrating him/her self unless you finish 10Km in 2 hours! LOL

Sir, Research before you react.. Sa babayaran, Alamin kaya muna natin magkano mapupunta sa kapus palad compare sa mapupunta sa organizer.. :)

@TrueLove – ngayon ko lang nabasa comment mo pre. Medyo nakaka-offend ka rin. “Research before you react”? May nakapagsabi na ba sayo na “Respect others’ opinions? Ikaw na matalino. Hahaha.

@Brad

i do respect your opinion.. and no question about that.

there is no wrong thing on what i said? yes it is.. research before you react.. what i just want to imply is that we must know how much would be given to the advocacy..

in milo run alone, if you are running for 10k or higher the registration is 500pesos for the advocacy of giving shoes to public school children. as for me, no problem with the advocacy..
but do you know that in that registration fee/ amount, only ten pesos goes to the advocacy, yes it is..Php10 from that of Php500.. now differentiate and balance which is have the edge- the advocacy as the frontline of the run or the business.

Just think, analyze and learn!

as you clearly implied “we are entitled to our own opinion”

truly I do respect your opinion and i expect you respect mine.. thanks.. have a safe running..

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Sa mga nagparegister na, may singlet ba? One week na lang kasi, di ko pa alam. Mahal kasi ang 600 para sa 10 km. Makabawi man lang sa quality ng singlet, hehehe… =)

@true love

what are the inclusion of my P600 if i run for 10k, considering we will bring our own hydration?

thank you.

anybody has a link to race maps?

@full metal runner

that the query i addressed to the organizer, but unluckily until now no response.

medyo mainit na usapan dito ah! sana may comment na ang organizers.. wla po kayo nkalagay if may singlet po ito?

For race maps and more info, check out http://www.solar.org.ph

\ Meron po bang on-site registration?
\
\Kuya Kim and Gilbert Remulla are putting their faces in this event which means their reputations are at stake here. If this goes badly, sila din ang badshot sa public. Erwan Heusaff is to draw the screaming teenage girl fans haha. I’m hoping for an appearance on Matanglawin hehe

But seriously that charity angle of every peso raised in registration meaning 1 day of clean solar power for a poor/remote family is interesting. Sana totoo ito.

Helping these people just might make the price worth it https://www.stiftung-solarenergie.org.ph/node/170

Meron po bang registrations sa venue mismo?

@bitoy

iba po itong organizer na ito na Solar Energy Foundation sa Isang Litrong Liwanag. I participated in their event na Bike for Light. Free shirt, water and lunch po kami dun! :)) Sila po yung nag-iinstall ng lights out of PET bottles.

Itong Solar Energy Foundation, tumutulong din naman sa mga underprivileged pero solar lamp ang gamit nila kaya mas mahal. Yung nasa poster sa taas na color yellow..

Bukas na yung run na to. Sana successful kahit di sumasagot mga race organizers dito.

Good luck sa mga tatakbo bukas and have fun! =)

Since this is a “green race” – sana mag provide kyo ng bike racks for participants who want to bike to/from venue.

just found their fb page. Medyo late nga lang lol https://www.facebook.com/pages/Run-for-Light/436129576406607
