Date: 08.01.2010Venue: SM Mall of Asia
Rexona run turned out to be a family affair -with zsa, patrick ,my sis and me present during the race.
Organized by runrio we only expect the best. A new timing chip was introduced in this run. Organizer claimed that this is being used in international marathons.
We arrived at SM Mall of Asia 45mins before our actual run. Patrick ran 5k, while we, girls, ran 3k.
There were lots of freebies--shampoo, conditioner, bottled water, gatorade, popsicle , nature valley power bars.
I brought my DLSR to capture post race poses. Unfortunately, there were no photovendo pics for 3K and 5K; i read that photovendo was contracted only for 10K & 21K.In my rough calculation (based on the results), the event grossed Php4.4M!!! with this sum, 3k and 5k should have been included in the photovendo. Maybe, the budget for the 3k & 5K photos were alloted for additional ambulance and water station expenses.
The death in the 34th Milo Marathon Manila Elims may have prompted the organizer to get more ambulance, marshalls and water stations.
Overall, the Rexona Run was great, well organized..
