ang bilis ah
Great weather! Great Running Atmosphere! After the singlet distribution mess up, the organizer obviously tried everything to make up.
Question what was the true distance of that 16.8Km. Based on my Nike+ it was almost 21Km..
It was 17.7k on my gps. Same with my other friends.
on my timex global trainer, it’s 16.9km. so i say the distance was almost spot on.
MY GPS (Runkeeper) states 18.2??
nikeplus gps says its 18.3km
Papa Piolo, maybe because you used a Nike product on an Adidas event that’s why your gps wasn’t accurate. Just my two cents. :-)
16.9 based on my Garmin watch
So does this mean that Garmin is the more accurate GPS watch?
yep, garmin gps watches are more accurate, ive used mine for all the runs and the accuracy rate is around 99%.
Were you running in circles?

No portalet anywhere along the 16.8 route. The bodycare was not included in the lootbag thus the long queue claiming the bodycare.
Hydration was enough. I rate this a so-so event for the amount I paid.
And the singlet quality was better last year.
Pwede pa rin kaya makipagpalit ng Medium size blue men sa any color small size na singlet ng men?
My observation:
The Good:
– cheerers, okay
– finisher’s medal, okay – maganda pagkakagawa
The Bad:
– last hydration to the finish line, i saw their staff placing ice cubes with bare hands (no gloves)
– did not claimed “Adidas Body Care” due to very long queue. Why not include this in Finisher’s Kit. Brand rin naman nila yan, bakit separate pa …
Anyone got a certificate in their loot bag? Or to be followed, s’send na lang nila through e-mail?
Run was great! Long lines are always to be expected for a popular event like this one so i understand the need to wait in line.
Top 3 reasons I run:
1. Healthy lifestyle
2. PR goals
3. Running women ;)
This event really helped with all these 3 reasons! LOL
Andaling makalimot at magpatawad. Kaya nagiging mayor ang ex-convict at nagiging congresswoman ang may reputasyon na nandaya sa eleksyon e
Kakaunti yung portalet nung event, tapos yung deodorant bakit dipa nila nilagay sa lootbag…ang tagal tuloy…
pero sa race route, hindi nagkulang ok na ok.
lots of oversized singlet -:)
Saan pa kaya may pictures? Haha

Still more to come…
Thank you! I found 1 photo for me!!!
I found three! Awesome!
thanks, seen a sequence of my photo.. hahaha.. thanks to that, I guess I have to up pace my workout a little bit.. cheers.
wla din kmi nreceive n 1k gc from LTimeStudio and 400 gc from adidas, sana nilagay n lhat s kit nung ngclaim ng singlet o finishers kit.. ang gulo ng event..:(
Pangit ng kuha ko sa pic dahil sa oversized na singlet. Hehe. But the race was great at nakiisa ang weather. And the most important thing is i beat my PR!! YAHOOO.. So feeling ko kaya ko na yung time limit ng 21k ng milo sa 28…
I love this fun run..the singlet is the BEST! This was the first time I got a medal from a 10k run.woot woot! yehey! i like the weather and the finisher’s bag.. thanks you adidas! next time ulit! :)
This was my first time to participate in this running event. I participated in the 10K distance.
I registered on the 1st week of registration and claimed my race kit on the 1st day of claiming, so needless to say, I did not encounter the problem most of the runners encountered. Although I wasn’t able to get the color I wanted, I was able to get the size I registered for.
The race for me went well. With just 2 distance categories, I was overwhelmed with the number of participants per distance. I noticed that about 5 minutes after the 16k gunstart, a lot of runners were still crossing the start line. 10 minutes on, 15 minutes on, still, runners were crossing the start line. For the 10K distance, I tried my best to position myself about 5 rows up front.
The route was OK, typical BGC. Just like in Race Against Raze 1/2, there were cheerers which I really appreciate. They kept me going.
The medal is quite unique. It was only when I got home when I realized the medals have the distance marked at the back. Good thing mine is correct.
Ample food and freebies, thanks to the sponsors.
I did encounter 1 runner at the CALCHEWS booth literally lost his “cool.” He was obviously upset with the way RUNNERS are treated in running events. He voiced out his opinion that getting our contact info at every booth is just too much, and at a loud voice at that. I do understand what he was saying. Perhaps organizers of future running events ought to distribute their master database to all the sponsors, to avoid the long lines. Or, perhaps they can utilize the stubs attached to the bibs fully without the need for us runners to write down our names one by one and so on, and so forth. In as much as I agree with what he was saying, the way he delivered it is just not my style. It was a sort of an AMALAYER moment. If only someone videotaped him go ballistic at the cute girls at the CALCHEWS booth! In fairness to the supervisor of CALCHEWS, she showed class by removing the sign-up forms and said to everyone signing-up isn’t necessary anymore. The line at that booth became swift after that. It was a win-win situation.
I was able to beat my record!!! Anyway, hope you guys enjoyed the run.
Congrats Chrissyrunner! :)
I hope ‘Amalayer’ runner, and all those planning to lose their cool over these freebies realize that these giveaways are not part of what they paid for. If he thinks he is too important to be lining up, then maybe he should go the nearest pharmacy and just pay for these Calchews. It’s frustrating, and frankly, embarrassing that there are runners like this.
Lots of PHOTOS here:

Thanks a lot! I found my picture.
Thanks po ….
overall nice run event even do i finished the race last due to severe hyper extended calf on both of my legs. thanks for the cheerers for making me go the extra mile even in pain making me push my self to the limit.
congrats dude, bad run is better than no run.. cheers!!!
Not really. Bad runs could actually kill.
KOTR very good race.
thank you

Pre race day:
Difficult online registration. Adidas server down.
Difficult onsite registration. Person assigned at Adidas BGC was on lunch break daw (at 3 pm like a boss!). Was able to register at Runnr BGC for 10k.
Had to go back for race kit pick up (why not give it during actual registration?).
Chaotic race kit pick up. Very unpleasant experience.
For Php 1,100 for 10k still expensive. Other runs can provide value for money. Or at least provide the least hassle for your runners and pamper them. They deserve it at the amount the organizers are charging.
Race day:
Ok lang parking. Medyo malayo na ako naka park.
Minimal number of protalets.
Started promptly at designated time. Ok hosting with warm up and video of route.
Route ok and marshals ok. Felt safe at the intersection crossings.
No hydration at the starting area at the start of the race. Hydration along route ok. Only one station had sports drink, all the rest only water. Loot bag at the end had water and sports drink.
Cheerers fantastic. Looks like they really had a heavy breakfast. Sana mey cheerers din at around 7-8km kasi duon na medyo mahirap ang takbo.
There was this one stupid kid along the route on in-line skates with a GoPro video cam on his chest going against the flow of runners right in the middle of the runners. This was somewhere sa school area road. Sapakin ko na sana. I hope no one crashed into him.
Long lines to claim various stuff. Hassle.
Medal, loot bag ok.
Sayang, mukhang konti lang schools/students ang nag-join for the relay.
Hello Sir. 3PM-3:30PM is the only breaktime for the registration personels. So yes, they are not around by that time. Thank you for joining KOTR 2013. Kudos!
Some photos here. Please like the page. Thanks, PF.

16.8k sa route, full marathon sa hotdog at deodorant at photobooth hahahaha
definitely i will join this run again next year.
sana masunod kung ano ang request mong size and color ng singlet
bakit puro vitamins lang laman ng lootbag? yung mga nauna may oracare pa at tuna at 100 plus. Ang mahal mahal ng binayad dito ha. tapos pati singlet parang daster na yung laki kahit yung pina register is XS nung may pa.
sobrang palpak kayo ngayon proactive… 2/10 rating ko sa inyo regardless sa iba pang tingin nyo tama o maganda.
mas nagfocus pa kayo sa singlets ng marshalls at mga cheerer, hindi dun sa mga nagbayad na runners.
palpak to the max! hindi na ako sasali next year kung proactive pa rin organizer
actually, pwede po kayo magpapalit ng singlet dun sa information booth, nagpunta ako early kasi medium binigay sakin, samantalang xs ang niregister ko, walang sabi sabi na pinalitan naman nila.. pero ginawa ko na lang small, para medyo maluwag ng onti.. so in end, nakuha ko yung tamang size at color(yellow). and problem ko sa parking is 35php, yep small amount, pero ang dala ko lang ay 50php.. hahaha..kaya ginawa ko inakyat ko yung motor at itinabi dun sa mga scooter na nakaparada malampit sa event site.. solve ang problem, nagdala din ako tinapay, pero isa lang nakain ko.. kasi dun ako tumambay sa century tuna babes, .,.. este booth.. papak lang ng papak, buti at walang pila.. naka anim na piraso lang ako.. solve na ako dun.. yung deodorant naman, kinuha ko na before the race, kasi iniisip ko na magiging mahaba pila if after the race ko pa kukunin.. pero pinalagay ko sa bag ng kaibigan ko.. at nakalimutan ko din kunin.. hahaha.. actually mas maganda yung last year.. less hassle(kasi online)..at madami laman yung loot. either way.. wala ako tyaga pumunta sa mga booths may pila man o wala.. so di sakin issue yung long lines sa booths. sa hydration naman wala din issue. kasi usually no hydration naman ako during 10k run.. saka kaya ko naman no hydration up to 17-18k.. thanks dun sa nagnakaw ng hydration bottle ko during my 21k training.. nadiskubre ko tuloy na kaya ko pala.. hahahaha… pero dun sa last hydration, pumick up na lang ako ng plus100, para may tutunggain right after the run.. pero meron din pala kasama sa finisher na tubig at plus100.. masaya yung mga cheerers.. kung nag training lang sana ako ng puspusan mas maganda ang time ko.. either way tumakbo ako dahil gusto ko tumakbo.. at dahil gusto ko nung sando ng adidas. plus na lang yung organisadong ruta at event. cheers.
Hindi kami interesado sa life story mo.
mag train ka muna nang mabuti nang mauna ka naman sisihin mo sarili mo bat ang hinga at ang bagal mo at naubusan na nang loot bag!
When will the race result be posted?
enjoy life! rather than “endyourlife” with your frustrations. LOL
grabe ung dalawang century tuna babes.. nakakapang-hina ng tuhod.. daig ko pa ung tumakbo hahaha
Where do I find the race results?
infairness nakakatuwa ung mga group of cheerers. boost ur run tlga ang peg. :)))
over-all, the race was excellent…EXCEPT the long queue for the adidas deo which they could have included in the loot back. We’ll look forward to joining the race again by next year…

no portalets along the race..
just got the same distance in my Nike+ but i think i just didn’t stop it correctly. However, it’s not really 16.8km… right more of 17k++..
just sayin! :)
Nice race…

Frustrating lang yung singlet distribution, i registered for an xs size pero medium na napunta sa akin. sana naman sa mismong registration booth eh puede ng makuha ang singlet… PLEASE sa KOTR 2014, make it possible na ibigay agad ang desired singlet size… nagmukang duster yung singlet sa akin eh!
Tsaka nga pala, bakit my mga turns na race route na me dumadaan pa rin mga sasakyan, kakainis lang kasi pang-alis momentum sa pagtakbo…
Ayos lang po organizers ng sitema sa pagtratraffic at singlet distribution…
yun lng po!
meron na bang race results? anong website ng proactive?
thanks! =)
Why did Adidas need to separate the distribution of the body care products? It does not make any sense to subject runners to two lines. for what? I patiently waited in line for more than half an hour to get mine, while some runners, particularly this fat dark guy, nagalit pa nuong di ko pinasingit. Napakaselective ng integrity ng ibang runners. Yung iba sisingit, kakausapin ang kakilala tapos maya maya nainsert na ang sarili nila sa pila. tsk
aw..isa na ako dun bro…pasensya na kasi dapat ung adidas body care sinama na lang dun sa loot bag para hindi humaba ng ganun ang pila hays..

Hi, thanks so much for the pics!
Salamat sa picture sir : )
Thanks we got some pix, nice shot…
Ang tagal naman lumabas ng race result. 48hrs na nakalipas wala pa rin.
It’s always a pleasure running at KOTR as the events is so festive and always fun running alongside thousands of runners. Sharing my kotr race post. https://francramon.com/?p=6084
@JP: Stand corrected, Calchews is not for freebies this has a claiming stub and can be seen in a runners BIB. So everyone should be expecting that this could be given in a proper manner. Expecting that it is not needed to sign up anything on a form/paper that infact, we’re already sacrificed to fall in a long line… Thanks to that man because of him we lessen our burden to claim our CALCHEW STUB… Congrats to all runners and let us just enjoy the run next time :)
mukhang nag eencode pa sila ng mga names ng runners.. kung maalala nyo na kaya tumagal yung claiming ng race kit.. dahil dun pa lang sila magbibigay ng race bib number.. meaning di pa nila naeencode yung mga form during claiming ng race kit. tnx
malamang ganyan nga nangyari kaya un iba nagkapali palit ng pangalan haha
Have a glimpse of the goings on before, during and after the Adidas KOTR Cheer competition from a fab divas perspective.

adidas King of the Road is one race I look forward to every year and I cannot wait for next year! As of now, it is the best race of the 2013 running season.

sa start ng race, FINISH ang makikita sa ark, pag finish mo START ang makikita. but overall masaya.
Kapag start kasi, ang pwesto ng photographers ay sa nasa harap ng starting line kaya start ‘yung nasa harap
I think it will take time to post the results as I look at the 2012 results they are tagging also our photos based on our BIB No. But hoping it will come out soon as I am still having a run hangover. :)
Results are out. Here’s the link: https://race.proactive.ph/Adidas-King-of-the-Road-2013-kotrph2013
GUN TIME LANG ANDITO WALANG CHIP TIME BKIT NAMAN GANUN
the site is out. server error daw.
hayyy… bakit iba pangalan ko sa results? sino si paolo esteban? tumakbo ako at nagbayad 1.1k para sa ibang tao.. sa mga experienced runner dyan.. me magagawa pa ba ko sa case na to?
Try to send them an email with a screenshot of your BIB No. just to prove the you are the real owner of the BIB.
may naka post din na thumbnail pic ko sa result page ng bib no. ko.. iba lang talaga pangalan.. ang sama sa loob ng di ko mahanap pangalan ko.. tingin ko fault ito ng nag encode nung nag register ako .. email ko sila.. salamat po
there is something seriously wrong with the race results. my 16.8k time was not 02:38. i could finish a half marathon in 2:23.
ouch.. somethings really wrong
sabi ko na papalpak un race result nito ehh hehe
gaa ng sabi ko malamang nag eencode pa lang sila ng nagrelease sila ng race kit ng nagkaroon ng problema sa race kit distribution and resulta affected din yung encoding nila.. di ko pa din nakikta ang results huhuhuhu
Internal Server Error every time we click on ‘Race Result” link…
i think there’s something wrong sa official race result. base on my gps, i completed the race in 1:58:28 pero sa official result eh 2:21:17. parang tumakbo n ko ng 21K nyan ah. lol. ang laki ng discrepancy! To ProActive, pki verify po ulet un result nyo. Thanks!
Result website down??
Sana post din nila by chip time unfair naman sa ibang nasa hulihan.
Hi Proactive!
Please also post results in gender per category. You result in gender is a combination of all categories and is somehow misleading.
Thanks!
Tinamad mag post ng chip time! Ang tagal ko sa dulo ng unang wave tapos ung time ko ganun pa din. 1:49:55 ni walang tawad.
My race result is also off by almost 8 to 10 minutes.
mukhang ok naman yun result,,,, pasok sa oras ng watch ko… kung malalagyan ng CHIP TIME mas maganda sana…
hindi ma click yung picture sa proactive race result! waAaHhHhh!! yun pa naman yung pic ko na nag barefoot ako wahehe :) sana maayos nila :)
Ako rin, hindi ko ma-click pictures ko. Sana nga, maayos nila.=)
Sana rin ipaghiwalay ang results in gender ng 16.8km and 10km.=)
Pang profile picture ko pa naman sana hahahaha!
just go to Photo-ops in facebook, andun lahat ng mga pictures, thats what i did
yup nakita ko na lahat ng pictures ko dun hehe :)
Thanks, Willie! Dami kong nakitang pics.
PROACTIVE bakit RAFAEL MAESTRO ang nakalagay na pangalan ko

Ang bilis nagclose yung mga photo booth, nasaraduhan ako , kainis , sana extended yung oras until 9am
My race and singlet review!
https://runningfatboy.blogspot.com/2013/07/race-and-singlet-review-adidas-kotr.html
bakit SUSAN JEMUTAI ang pangalan ko? niño bagacina po dapat.. 18803 bib no. ko… MALI!!!
sana pwede icopy yung pix sa proactive gallery.. bakit kasi naka thumbnail sobrang liit tuloy huhuhuhuhu
Right click mo ung thumbnail tapos “save link as”
Maraming salamat at malaking tulong po ito… sasakit na naman ang ulo ni msis sa pagpapa print ng pix at paggawan ng scrapbook hehehehe
1ST TIME KO MAG KOTR INEEXPECT KO MAGANDA YUNG RESULT NILA ANG PANGIT NG RACE RESULT NITO YUNG IBANG CATEGORY MAY SPLIT TIME YUNG IBA WALA TPOS GUN TIME LNG E NUNG NAG START YUNG 16.8K NAKAPILA PA KAMI SA PORTALET DAHIL NAPAKA KONTI.

Maganda na sana kaso sablay ang results!
Chip Time please!! :D
The only thing I would want is a hydration station at the beginning of the race.
who is the top filipino finisher in 10k?
Based on the results at Proactive it’s Rodolfo Galima at 5th place.
Ayawan na. Mas mabilis na sa akin si mr pinoyfitness. Kailangan ibalanse ang training between cycling and running :)
Bkit po maraming vertecation..at yung name ko wala din,, paki ayus nman po wala po akung nakitang eduardo antolo,,,tnx
