nice run. nice route . hydration ‘s sufficient . lots of pictures taken with unique costume characters. lots of laughters
madilim haha and medyo mahirap ung route. Pero its very nice experience. Great effort coming from the organizers. Congrats
masaya! madami nanaman pocari na malamig! ang luphet ni iron man! nagmukha lang ako tambay sa costume ko. hahaha. yun oppurtunity to run sa edsa mismo sulit na ang bayad. thanks greentenial!
new route for me, sister and my wife.. but sadly mali yung direction from one of the race marshal kaya instead na 10k naging 5k lang takbo nya.. this route provided a couple of slight inclined and declined ground elevation..
here is my opinion regarding this run:
1. Run Start Time : Late Start, though nabored dahil 11pm pa lang warm up na.. then warm up pa ulet before 12am due to late start.
2. Route : love the new route, may part lang na madilim buti na lang may dala ako mini flashlight. medyo matrapik pa rin. walang distance marker at kulang marshals other than that maganda yung new experience sa new route, decline and incline ground elevation is a plus.
3. marshals : kulang ang marshals, specially sa ganun kabibilis na nagdadaanan na sasakyan.. may narinig pa ako sa likod ko na.. “delikado to.. ” tapos sabay sambit..”living dangerous pare”.. di ko matandaan yung exact word. nagwrong turn yung asawa ko kasi malabo yung instruction ng marshal… nagsplit yung road, then ang sabi.. “sa left sa left” so nagtaka sya na bakit pabalik na agad.. so lumingon sya at walang syang kasunod.. tinry nya bumalik kaso meron din isang runner na dun din ni-route.. so akala nila tama yun.. sa marshals.. make sure na malinaw yung message. though di naman talaga maiiwasan yung ganito..
4. program : nice program, keep us almost entertained.. pero parang medyo maarte yung naghohost(sorry for the word).. pero nung umakyat yung babae na tumutulo yung dugo sa bibig(costume).. parang naartihan lang ako.. kasi diba costume lang yun..saka ano expect mo sa midnight run.,.hhehehe
5. finishers : nice one.. very organized. naka indicate sa plastic yung bib number so impossible na magkaubusan.. saka pwede pa magpapalit.. kasi yung wife ko nagpapalit kasi sobrang laki nung jacket nya na medium. jacket is good quality.
6. baggage : late lang nag start, due to traffic daw.. ok lang naman na late magstart.. wag na lang sana nila sinabi na “natraffic yung staff” kasi maraming runner na malayo pa pinanggalingan.. though after nun.. organized naman yung baggage at wala naman yatang nawala na baggage.. so good na yun.. para sakin ok na late start kesa naman magkaron ng security issue.
7.hydration : very good and enough. meron lang isa na malapit sa lubak.. so yung runner specially barefoot runner(including me nung run).. kelangan pa mag curve papuntang daanan ng malalaking sasakyan then papunta dun sa hydration. isa lang naman yung misplaced hydration.
overall score : 9/10(-1 for latestart, and minor route issue,madilim and not enough marshal specially sa dark area.).
@pongscript galing ng analysis sir! most of the marshalls ata nilagay nila sa edsa. sobrang konti kasi dun sa 1st 5k w/c is weird for a greentenial run. imo, sa edsa sila nag concentrate pala walang sabit. 9/10 din rate ko kasi mahal ko na yun isang host dun. yung walang glasses. hehehe.
first time finisher’s jacket…
first time race route..
first time midnight run.
~medyo late nagpastart ng gunstart due to safety purposes. Kaya napagsabay na ang 10k and 5k.Buti nalang may tao na automatically mag-uupdate ng traffic advisory. Very Alert.
~Medyo nalate yung Baggage,nangyari pa ang liliit ng tent for that (pati din sa jacket distribution.) Buti nalang mabilis silang gumawa ng paraan para maayos yung problemang tulad ng ganyan. GALING.BILIS ALERT.Napansin ko din yung initiatives ng mga marshals,alam talaga nila gagawin nila.
~well organized yung distribution ng jackets.Naka-indicate already yung jacket size mo at yung iba (as I see it) ay nakapangalan na sa kanila..personalize huh.Pag magpapapalit,mabilis nila ito na-eentertain. Though humaba yung pila due to di maayos yung pagkalinya ng runners tapos may mga gusto nang mauna,nagagawan parin nila ng paraan and napaka pasensyoso nila huh kahit na nasisigawan na sila ng mga runners kakahintay sa mga jacket nila,well di naman kasalanan ng mga staff yun incident na ganun kasi may mga runners talagang bastos na din at sobrang short-tempered,still di sila nagpa crack under pressure at maayos sila nakikipag-usap sa mga runners. VERY IMPRESSIVE! The Jacket was nice and it varies in different sizes so lahat makakakuha ng desired sizes nila.
~The Raceroute is very challenging and first time may nagpatakbo sa area na yun…medyo madilim nga lang,but what do you expect?kaya nga Midnight Run eh! and di say nakakalito.
~Hauted house nila yung exciting dun sa run.Di sya pambata infairness. And nakakatakot indeed sya. May narinig na kong nagsisigawan eh…di ako lalong naexcite sa ataol…makatotohanan sya..pwede sana pumasok dun for pics!hehe
Overall,Midnight Run is one of the Excited Run that I’ll join…Sana may next!\ year pa!
i liked the “mananangal” ! he is like flying !
MASAYA! Para lang kameng bumalik sa pagkabata though ngayon ko lang naexpirience ang maki halloween party. :) Better late than never, hehehe, Thanks to Greentennial for making these kind of event, next year ulet! Though meron mang nga negative na nangyari kagabe, natabunan na yun dahil sa saya ng event na naganap, Kudos sainyo organizer! :D
hahahah! dami kong nakahakot na suppporters ko akala ko matutuwa sila kasi nag eefort talaga ako sa custume ko…. pero mas higit pala silang natuwa sa mga fellow runners na talaga nga namang nag eefort din.. sobrang saya! nagging friendly tuloy lahat ng runners dahil lahat gustong magpa picture sa isa’t isa… about naman sa gun start, hydration, route, marshalls,baggage and program… nocomment na ako doon kasi natabunan na ng saya ang nangyari… hahhaha! kahit mahirap tumakbo ng nakacostume ay ok lang nag enjoy naman ako ng sobra.. si Iron man di ko nakitang tumakbo pero nakita ko syang nag susumikap lumipad ngunit wala ata syang gasolina. hahahha! kudos! until next Midnight run!
The best yung kagabi, tamang tama at zombie costume namin coz baldado pa paa ko last sunday… naging walking dead kami ng mga kapatid ko! hehe
Katakot yung banda sa white planes banda ba yun? Muntik na ako araruhin ng isang car, lasing yata ang loko, nasa bandang side walk na nga kami eh!
Either way good event, saso yung ibang runners maaga umuwi, sana nakasali sila sa mga costume category.
thank you sa masayang run kagabi! hehehe!

masaya. parang mag kakakilala halos lahat ng mga participants dahil sa mga picture picturan. magaling dahil effort talaga sa mga costumes ang bawat isa. nice din ang finishers jacket.
mejo di ko lang naenjoy dun e ung “ala-taga-kantong” ingay from the host. sorry ah. di ko lang nagustuhan talaga.. and ung parang nag kakaraoke na nakanta as background music. hindi din clear ung pa finish line.. daming padaan daan lang.
but overall, it’s still a nice event. congrats greentennial!
Nice to hear maraming nag-enjoy sa first ever Midnight Run ng greentenial team. congrats! super fun effort talaga ang costume run. ang daming creative! at dahil sa inyong inspiring msgs, malaki ang chance for a Part 2 next year. Panalo ang finisher’s jacket dba?
hi Ms_Mars, bilib ako sa patience mo nung bigayan na ng finisher’s jacket sa mga volunteers… tapos wala pang ilaw sa tent nyo… (((CLAPS)))
It was my first Midnight Run and it was fun running along EDSA, the Busiest Road in the Metropolice,, sana next year may limited edition na medalyang pang halloween ang concept napakagandang idea siguro yung ganun kasi wala pang gumagawa ng medal na pang halloween something like creepy talaga talaga ang tema ng medalya……..
great run! we had a challenge keeping runners safe along EDSA, but seeing the runners having fun was a cool experience!
@Jullius
Challenge talaga ung walang ilaw sa tent. gud thing may headlights na baon,girl scout tau, hehe! Many thanks po sa nice words at claps! Nakakatuwa ^_^
Not a perfect event… pero ASTIG ang Halloween Run! featured pa tayo sa iba’t ibang TV stations :) congrats sa lahat ng nakilahok. para na naman reunion ng runners dressed in a very different attire
depende sayo yan kung pano ka mag eenjoy… kung puro negative sa takbuhan ang hahanapin ng bawat isa hindi nga mag eenjoy… Pero may solusyon diyan mag patakbo ka ng sarili mo.. hahaha peace..
additional experience ibang klase yung concept :) though wala akong costume masaya pa din sana next year bigger event na sya ibang klase din yung makikipagsabayan ka sa EDSA kasama ang mga harurot buses hehehe although hazardous yung usok nila masaya pa din I CONQUERED bit of EDSA hahahaha
congrats greentenial
See you ALL in the bigger, better and scarier …MIDNIGHT RUN 2013!
