  1. Grabe nakakadismaya naman. sino ba itong si the shield? sensational ka yata masyado. I started running 2 years ago and i admit hindi pa ako nakatakbo ng longer distance such as 21K. So you mean to say those who aspire to run for this category need to make sure that they are not “walkers”? That’s labeling- negative connotation. Daig mo pa ang doctor kung mgbigay ng diagnosis ah! kung elite ka tlaga you shoud understand the effort and the hardship of those who are new to running as well as those who are new to longer distances kasi napagdaanan mo rin yun, Mayabang ka masyado dun ka dapat sa mga international events or best sumabay ka sa mga kenyan.

    • ,,,you can still aim to run on a 21k distance on a different event. This run was really aim to challenge the intermediate to advance runners to exert more effort to attain the sub-2 or sub-2.5. Kung WALKER ka, siguradong may kalalagyan ka sa event na ito – c”,)

    • malaki lng tlga bunganga nyan the shield na yan… yang kc gamit nya pang takbo… takbo lakad din ginagawa nyan.. wag nlng patulan… walang mawawala qng maglalakad ka.. atleast ang nasa isip mu eh ung makatapos ka no matter what..

    • Wag mo pansinin yan..it’s not true na if you are a walker you will not meet the cut-off..hindi nagreresearch ang mga yan! take a look on Jeff Galloway strategy running. i’m a walker too..take a look my record. 1: 50 min ako sa 21km nung walker pa ko..10mins run and 30 seconds walk ako..but still sub-2…Ultra runner na ko ngaun ganun pa din walker pa rin…just enjoy the run…

  2. Suggest ko sana na ung 2XU FS eh walang nakalagay na 21K finisher sa likod parang Nike we run ’13. Para hindi masyado maangas ang suot or maka-intimidate sa iba :)

    • I beg to disagree, hindi nman kaangasan un, sinasabi lng nun na proud ka sa feat na nagawa mo, it is the fruit of your labor, kaya para sakin, tama lng na may 21K Finisher na nakalagay sa likod

      • agree Nastu… ako, personally – na momotivate ako lalo pag may nakikita akong Finisher shirt with its distance covered indicated for the fact that I also want to have that shirt. — Keep on running guys!

  3. pinoyfitness… both medical certificate and time less than 2:30 ba talaga? or pwede kahit isa lang jan sa dalawa? pakisagot naman po. thanks!

  4. wow, ang mahal ng reg. haha 1450? okay sana yung I conquered the 21k challenge kaso alam natin lahat na nakuha lang yan sa condura. sana ibahin na lang yung nakalagay.

  5. what happened to the finisher jackets? also, same question re the med cert/proof of finish. do we have to provide both, or just either of the two?

    • I beg to disagree. Running is still the most affordable physical activity. All you need is a good pair of shoes and find a place to run. No need to spend for races. That’s as affordable as you can get.

    • strenuous na kasi ang 21k. Tapos ito pa ang pinakamadaling entry point ng long distance na patakbo. Para sa protection na rin po natin ito. Sa 21km po kasi na distance nagkakaroon ng disgrasya.

      isipin na lang na para sa atin din ang medical exam.

  6. hmmm. masyado mahal ang registration ng sub 2xu. akala ko naman parehas lang registration ang gagawin nila e malaki ang consequences sa hindi makakaabot. pero tatak lang ng f.shirt ang pinagkaiba. sa 21k challenge nalang ako pwede pa din naman mkasub two don kahit don ka sumali tatakan ko nalang ng 2xu ung f.shirt. ^_^..

  7. Ang intindi ko kaya mahal ang Sub2 ay dahil sa Finisher Shirt 2XU at Sub2XU Medal.. Siguro mas maganda ang Sub2XU Medal kaysa sa 21k Challenge Medal.. Antabay tayo sa design ng 2 Medals.

  8. i paid up through BPI last Friday Aug 15. but until now no confirmation if PEPSQUAD EVENTS received it. And also can i send a PRINTSCREEn of my last 21k result as proof of my 21 k result? tnx in advance..

    • @MAFLORES: kindly give them till Friday to consolidate all the online orders, medyo madami kasi and they are still sorting and verifying each transaction. Thanks for understanding, don’t worry we reserve slots based on first-register-first-serve basis

  9. *wat if I join Challenge wave (2:30) tapos natapos ko ung race ng less than 2 hours, makakakuha ba ako ng 2XU Medal?
    *Wat if I join Sub 2xu (2hours) tapos natapos ko sya more than 2 hours makakakuha ba ako ng 21k challenge medal o wala ako makukuhang medal?

    • RRR,

      my opinion mukhang malabo ka makakuha ng 2XU Medal if natapos mo yung challenge wave ng less than 2hours.. kase kung ako halimbawa na kaya kong tapusin ang 21k ng sub2 at makakakuha pla ako ng 2xu medal sa challenge wave edi dun nalang ako join walang talo.. kesa sa sub2 na mas mahal pa ng 500 pesos tama ba ako? about naman sa sub-2 na lumagpas ka ng 2hrs nagrerequest din ako sa pinoyfitness na sana mabigyan ng 21k challenge medal.. pero syempre additional expenses ng pinoyfitness yan mag prepare sila ng 2XU medals para sa sub2 at extra challenge medals sa mga di makakabeat ng sub-2.. or sana pwede bumili ng 21k challenge medal ang hindi makakabeat na sub-2 na runners pero natapos within less than 2:30hrs.. Thanks..

  10. D nman cguro kyabangan yun nsa nagdadala n lng yun kya tma lng n may 21k finisher s likod ng shirt accomplishment mu yun eh & be froud of it wag mu lng ipagyaabang tlga

  11. ah, basta pagipunan na yan.. kayang kaya basta sama sama.. lets do the challenge and prove to ourselves of our hardwork and training may come to a success…

  12. how about this kind of situation, pag nagregister po ako sa sub 2 challenge then, sumablay ako, naging 2:15 ang finish time ko.. qualify po ba ako sa category ng sub 2.5 kahit na sa sub 2 po ako nagparegister? makakareceive ba ako ng finisher shirt ng sub 2? just asking.. curious lang po.. thanks po.

    • IT Runner, makisuyo ka nalang sa mga relatives or friends mo na pa online reg ka sa knila sayang naman if sub2 runner ka at di ka makasali. alam ko wala na additional charges yung 1450 sa online.

  13. sana “21K sub2:30 Finisher” ang nakaprint sa back ng FS para di lang basta katulad ng FS ng ibang 21K events na wala namang 2:30 cutoff. yung word na “finisher” liitan nalang para medyo humble :D

    • Jef, pahumble ka pa pero pinalalagay mo naman yung sub2:30 sa print hahaha.. no need na ilagay yung sub2:30 kase magiging trademark ng pinoyfitness yung sub2 sub2.5 at sub1. pag runner makakasalubong mo sa daan at nakita suot mo finisher shirt na nasa itaas alam na nila na sub2 or sub2.5 ka.

    • @AJ meron din kasi FS kahit di ka umabot sa cutoff hehe. mas ok talaga kung may nakaprint na sub2/sub2:30 tapos palitan nalang ng checked box (like nung nasa front ng shirt) yung word na “finisher”.
      suggestion lang po :)

      • Jef. i got your point. But the execution is tough considering that the organizer will assume the number of runners to finish sub2, sub2:30 and beyond. Maybe an onsite shirt printer for printing “sub2” or “sub2:30” but it costly. I think all suggestions/comments here are being consider by organizer as long as it benefits the majority of the runner.

  14. Hi Pinoyfitness, just checking until now ang status ng online registration ko is “On Process” Aug 15 pako nag register may billing na nga credit card ko for this. I just want to confirm na officially registered na ba ako? 2 times nako nag email sa pepsquad regarding my status kaso no reply.. I hope wala namang problema. Please give me update

  15. sa challenge, if d umabot sa cutoff time…makukuha pa dn finisher shirt dba medal lng hindi? kc sabi medal for qualifiers dnmn nabsnggt sa finisher shrt…verify lng if tama understanding ko..thanks…

    • Andy kung babasahin mo yung mga naunang tanong nasagot na yan ng pinoyfitness. makukuha mo FS kahit lagpas sa oras pero ang medal hindi. And tanong siguro ay kung hanggang ano oras ang cut-off ng issuance ng FS. same ba itong ng ibang event na 4hr?

  16. puede ba ko sa 21K challenge? first time ko kasi nag21 sa sofitel half-marathon and i finished it 2:30:36 gun time and 2:29:30 chip time.

  17. Kung gusto nyo malaman kung kakayanin ang sub 2, mag 10k muna kayo prior ng event pag naka 54 minutes or less kayo malaki pag-asa.

  18. sorry if i missed it in the thread but was there an “official” reply of the organizer of this event relative to the question of RRR1005 above?

    if it was answered, what were the answers for each of the two questions?

    thanks!

  19. so bad that Run for Life was re-schedule on same date of 21K challenge and both were registered……. pano na yan…….syempre sayang yung ibinayad namin sa isang event na hindi namin matakbuhan……bakit kasi nereschedule yung Run for Life…….

  20. Wala pa rin update sa design ng sub 2xu finisher shirt. Sana magabago, para kasing mainstream at naive ung design. white t shirt tapos may nakalagay na 21k finisher para lang finisher shirt ng RUPM 21k. Sana kagaya man lang nung mga items ng 2xu sa runrio sole racing ang design.

    Hi! I registered and paid for online the 21-K Challenge Wave on 03 September. I just want to ask when is the delivery of the race kit. I have it delivered to my home.

    Thanks and I hope for your immediate reply.

  22. Hi Admin. I already registered on a 2XU category last August 14, i noted on my registration that i will pick up my race kit at festival mall alabang, Just want to ask when can I get it? please kindly inform me. since tomorrow will start your store registration. thank you so much and more power!

    • Hi Sir Jun,

      Pareho tayo online registration & claim sa festival mall, nakapag claim ka na ba? nakakainis lang flooded na ng email ko pepsquad tinatanong ko kung pwede na ma claim di man lang nasagot kahit dito wala announcement.

      • Hi kuya rodney and kuya jun. Pwede nyo na ma claim racekit nyo as of oct. 1 ngsend na ang pepsquad ng advice regarding claiming ng mga ng online reg. I already claimed my racekit just yesterday lang.

      • pwede na makuha race kit. october 1 pa nagstart in store reg/ race kit redemption mga sir. nakalagay sa poster sa taas.

  23. Hi Sir, ask ko lang po kung ang singlet ko ay XS ay XS din po ba ang FS na makukuha? Wala po sample sa 2xu store, Glorietta kanina. Thank you.

  24. after RUPM isa ito sa mga susunod na tatakbohan..

    sabi nga ni Sir Jeff sa Finishline ng RUPM:

    “nagdaratingan na mga mga sasali sa SUB 2”

  25. Iceman? Have a problem with wannabe’s . . All of us are runners the difference is that some are fast runners and some are not. . Don’t act that you own the sport

  26. i’ve got a question for the organizer.

    one of the flyers inside the race kit says “go to http://www.myrunti.me/connect to connect your bib with myruntime”

    is this really necessary? what happens if i don’t like to connect (because i don’t want this on my fb page)? will i not get my official time after the race?

    kindly advise because the guy at runnr store where i registered did not even seem to remind me to adhere to this special/important instruction.

  27. comment lang po… parang napalaki ng difference sa registration fee ng sub-2XU and 21k challenge wave. sa brand ng finisher’s shirt lang nagkaiba… sana meron pang additional freebies for the sub-2XU finishers…

    • YUng 2XU Shirt ang nagpamahal jan pre, check mo kung how much ang price ng mga shirts sa 2XU. Mas mahal pa jan sa registration mo. :)

  28. Sir Jeff, just registered. Concern ko lang po yung size ng FS.. sa singlet po kasi LARGE yung kinuha ko while ng nag fit ako ng FS SMALL lang ang size ko.. Ano po ba magiging basis ng FS.. sobrang laki po ng large na FS sa akin.. tnx

    • oo nga. ano magiging basis ng size of FS. wala naman nakalagay na size sa race bib. ano to? magiging first come, first serve?

      • 1st come, 1st serve ang FS… kinuha ko na singlet ay LARGE… at ng sinukat ko ang FS na LARGE para akong HIPHOP sa laki. Sabi nga ng staff malaki ang size ng 2XU compare sa singlet ng PF.. Sir Jeff, much better to reconsider yung concern sa FS ng sub 2 runners o maliliit na sizes na lang ang ilagay nyo mismo sa araw ng event.. para di kasi reasonable na ang magiging size ng FS is base sa singlet.. di nama parehas ang brand ng singlet at ng FS.. isipin na lang na ang singlet ko LARGE ang fit sa akin na FS ay SMALL pwede pa ngang XS eh.. tnx

  29. Sir jeff, i understand that kung sa sub2XU ka naka reigister then you finish at 2:05, you only get the 2XU FS but not the medal, may i suggest is it possible we get the sub 2.5k medal instead?

    • Hi aj,

      This is hard to commit, in this case we have to produce 2 medals for the sub-2xu finishers, it’s going to be costly and would definitely increase the reg price of the sub-2xu category if we do this.

      Thanks for understanding.

  30. Pano nga pala ang bigayan ng medal? Is it after crossing the finish line? How would the organizer distinguish na qualified as an individual o member ng isang team ang dumarating na runner s finish line?
