Run For Home: The Globe-Ayala Land City Run for Habitat for Humanity

June 29th, 2009

You know how to run, right? If you do, then here is your chance do it and do it with a cause!

Everyone is invited to join the Run For Home: Globe-Ayala Land City Run for Habitat for Humanity.  It is the first ever running event in the country that will feature the use of the disposable electronic timing chips to track running time.

The run is slated on July 19, 2009 (Sunday) at 5:00 AM at the Bonifacio Global City.  There will be 3-kilometer, 5-kilometer, 10-kilometer and 21-kilometer runs. So whoever you are and whatever your running capability is, there is a run just right for you (I’m joining the 3-km run.)! The route cover areas in the Bonifacio Global City to the Makati Central Business District.

Aside from supporting the Habitat for Humanity to benefit the Kapit Bisig Para Sa Ilog Pasig Project, this run is made more interesting by the use of the disposable electronic timing chips:

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.

To register and find out more about this event, simply visit the Run For Home site at http://ww.globe.com.ph/runforhome  or visit participating Globe Business Centers and Fitness First branches in Metro Manila.
