Globe opens the registration for its first ever running event that is seen to attract runners and health enthusiasts alike, as it features use of the disposable electronic timing chips to track running time during this fit and fun activity.
The RUN FOR HOME: Globe-Ayala Land City Run for Habitat for Humanity is slated on July 19, 2009, Sunday at 5:00 AM at the Bonifacio Global City. It offers 3-kilometer, 5-kilometer, 10-kilometer and 21-kilometer runs that will make use of the new Bonifacio Global City to Makati Central Business District route. This run will support Habitat for Humanity to benefit the Kapit Bisig Para Sa Ilog Pasig Project.
Assembly time for the 3-kilometer run is at 5:35 AM and gun start will be at 6:00 AM. For the 5-kilometer run, participants must assemble at 5:25 AM in time for the 5:55 AM gun start. The 10-kilometer run’s assembly is at 5:15 AM as the gun start is at 5:45 AM. Runners joining the 21-kilometer run must assemble by 4:30 AM for the gun start at exactly 5:00 AM.
Globe brings the disposable electronic timing chips to the Philippines to track the running time of participants to the RUN FOR HOME – a first for a running event in the country. The disposable electronic timing chips are miniature transponders in a specially designed plastic housing. These are used in popular international marathons where the chip is attached to a runner’s shoelace and in triathlons where it is placed as an ankle bracelet.
Registration is from June 19 to July 3, 2009 only, through the Globe website or at participating Globe Business Centers and Fitness First branches in Metro Manila.
