RUNdividual 2011 – December 10, 2011

Don’t hate people! I’m sure this will be great.

It’s organized and packs star power. Just look at that poster with Somedaydream, Lauren Young, etc. Even the top 5 of The Biggest Loser and Melissa Ricks will be there.

OBF Ateneans. I miss college haha. See u guys

I really dont know were to start with the disappointment..

I joined the 15K run for this event start palang palpak na. Sa starting line I asked the organizer if we will turn right or left sa kanto he said right.. Eto na gun shot runners on the go was turning right buti nalang may guard at sya yung nag sabi ng left grrrr… (should have someone dun sa kanto nag mag sabi kung saan pero d bale baka fluke lang) next we were ahead of everyone then nung makarating na kami sa dulo haaay yung organizer nanaman hindi alam kung saan pinabalik nanaman kami and here is a funny thing nasalubong na namin yung iba and we are already the one who is behind … Sana man lang you have flash lights para makita namin kayo and the sign you were holding should have color coding, some of the organizers there were either texting or holding looking at the map. I know this is your first and we dont blame you guys this are just suggestions kung uulitin nyo pa mext year should improve on this simple things.

I still enjoyed the run and the route. Hope next year there is improvement.

WOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! What can i say? it was a great event, the ajma event RUNDIVIDUAL is a blast!!! they are almost like a PRO organizer of fun run, just a few more things to work out and everything is perfect!!!, well again compare to 9th animo fun run, this is the 1st fun run event of ajma and its seems that they have listen carefully to all the advice and suggestion of the runners in some website. lets check the strengths of the event.

OVER ALL THE AJMA RUNDIVIDUAL DESERVES A 2ND YEAR ON 2012. YOU MEET THE EXPECTATIONS THIS TIME, SO I GUESS NEXT YEAR MAS MADAMI NG SASAMA/SASALI SA RUNDIVIDUAL IF EVER YOU PLAN TO DO IT AGAIN. BUT AGAIN YOU MOST GO BEYOND THE EXPECTATIONS OTHERWISE WALANG CONSISTENCY

1. the host has a long patience and very jolly, despite the fact that most of the runners is ignoring the host when they are inviting tevryone to participate in the warm up still they never stop until they where able to catch the attention of the audience.

2.the registration booth is ready to answer question and they response very quickly.

3. baggage area, they are well prepare they set up a tables where the bags are being place and at thesame time they seperate the baggage area for each category.

3.warm up is on time, the gun start is on time, timing device is set up properly / guard// police is available in the vicinity.

4.the volunteers or ajma members is very friendly and nice// they would greet you very warmly and give you those positive words(push more, go for more, your almost there you can make it and other positive words are coming out of their mouth every with a big smile).

5. they might now have this huge stage but they keep it alive hours before the event.

6. hydrant stations MAG SAWA KA, evry now and then meron water at infainess hindi tinipid ang 100 plus supply until at the end of the race isang katerba ang 100plus.

7.nice choice of location walang potalet pero very near naman sa mga restroom ng high street.

8.i saw some medics but the best part the student of ateneo are always ready with there car if anything goes wrong to the participants(runner).

9.ang daming marshall infairness pati lace

10.Pag dating mo ng finish line ito ang the best organizer ang marshalls i think 5 person per category and division ang marshall na nag bibigay ng medal at loot bag.

11. the sponsor that this organization got is so generous although most of the sponsors you got is xdeal pero worth it. hotdog from purefoods, pepsi products, plus100 products, dq and more.

weakness ng event

1.kulang sa publicity, i think nag lock out contract kayo with gold’s gym which makes it hard for most to register kasi hindi naman accesible lagi ang gold’s gym, ok na sana yung supported kayo ng RUNRIO sana ginamit nyo na yung opportunity para maki booth kayo sa mga stores ng riovana or rox and runners perhaps or chris sports.

2. try to seek sponsors in every angle like for medics try to seeks sponsorship from private hospitals.

3. put atleast a small tent for runners to change clothes male and female tents.

4. portalet kahit madaming cr kanina what if kung sarado yung mga cr na yun right?

5.secure the baggage area back and front.

6. use other timing device aside from bar code or we call it mano manong pag titime record/ we have more cost effective timing device like d-tags and timing chips that are reuseable.

The run’s ok with me.. ok din ung ibang mga marshalls.. anyway, pls do announce agad pag may results na. thanks!

isa nanaman itong pagkakamali!!!

@cathy why madami na naman mali ang organizer kanina?

been joining fun runs for quite some time now, and i can say that this run is at par with other races that i’ve joined. except for the lack of portalets (though there were toilets that were made available at the parking lots), everything else is A-ok. congratulations to the organizers. looking forward for the next RUNdividual. :)

walang portalets sana man lang nag provide kyo buti na lang may nadaanan kme na starbucks habang tumatakbo at naligaw pa kme…anyway ok lang may patutunguhan naman yung binayad namin..

mas marami pa yung tumakbo sa ateneo nung sa moa…

Sana po mailabas agad yung race results.. thanks! congrats din sa ajma. in fairness naman, mga students lang ang mga marshalls..and dun sa nagkamali, baka na-overwhelm!haha.. di tulad sa ibang marshalls na matatanda na.. aysus naman talaga walang pakealam. =)

nice run! for me yes, but to those who are not satisfied with the outcome, don’t just comment using single words like “Panget” “Worst Run” “Crappy” etc. . . make it specific and make it “Constructive” your comments will help the organizers to improve whatever flaws they had during the event. Besides there is no such thing as “Perfect Event”. Let’s help each other.

Had a great time. Yup some mishaps with the 15km especially on the first turn but other than that, felt great.

I usually do 10k races but I’m glad I did my first 15k race here :)

Failed ang run na to for 15k. Mali mali route, daming nag shortcut. Dpat kc 2 loop un. Ung totoong route sobra sa 15k. Kahit ako napa shortcut din kc pagod na pagod na ako. Nag shortcut na ako lagpas pa rin 15k ung measurement ng gps ko. Kakagulat din naging 2nd to the last ako, pero maraming nasa likod ko nung mid ng race at marami akong na overtake-an. Naubusan tuloy ako loot bag. Ndi na ako tatakbo sa lahat n ateneo run. Wala rin c cristine reyes. :(
