Another successful running event! Kudos to unilab and runrio! And eventhough i left my hydration belt sa car, it didn’t matter cause there were plenty of hydration stations. With this, got to complete my 21K without any worries. One of the best tlg runrio! Hope everyone enjoyed their run as well and it made up for the singlet distribution problems… =)

I didnt get to register, but I ran the 15km (as a bandit) No worries.. I didnt take any water from those who paid, I brought my own. From the looks of it.. it seemed like it was a very successful event. All the prerequisites of a Pinoy runner were there.. hydration, not a crampped up and safe route, nice singlet and the two most important..hehe.. photovendo was there and the giveaways (lots of giveaways). Im glad to see runrio and unilab for setting the bar in organizing running events. Kaya dun sa mga trying hard na run organizers (just for the sake of making an event and making a quick buck..) Mahiya naman kayo!.. More power to Runrio.. with you, we are not very far off from the races abroad.. ( I wish I registered..)

ayos! daming tumakbo ng 32k. meron ding mga pinulikat, isa na ako doon. congrats sa lahat.

i ran for 5K and it was great, natakpan na kapalpakan sa delivery ng singlet! See you again runrio on BGC run!

congrats!!! Unilab & coach Rio.the best talaga kapag Runrio.I really enjoyed my 21k run.see you guys on Sunday for BGC run…

You’re the best Rio…. very hands on… all my thumbs up for you… Nice one Runrio, kahit di ko na nakuha singlet ko… wala talaga time to pick up eh…. i just hope na maideliver na lang…. i enjoyed the run….

Galing talaga ng RunRio mag organize, i enjoyed my first 15K and the massage after :-) worth every centavo hindi katulad ng adidas na super palpak, hanggang ngayon di pa nila napopost yung certificate photo ko, ang kapal ng mukha nilang maningil ng P850 sa lahat ng category la naman silang binatbat sa RunRio. Keep up the good work RunRio, more power and more fun runs please…

sana for filipino citizen na lang ang puwede sumali sa mga patakbo walang mga kenya pauwiin na lang sila ginagawa na nilang hanapbuhay dito ang mga patakbo

GRRREEEEAAT 32K run this morning!
Nice route for 32 & 15 and proper timing so runners won’t get cramped up in any specific area of the route.
WOW!
Keep it up coach.
‘Til next time Unilab.

I really enjoyed my 1st 10k.lots of water stations and cool freebies.it’s worth it though we encountered problems regarding the race kit distribution.I suggest though to improve on the traffic management.it really gets into my nerves when I have to stop to give way to vehicles.another,it makes me cough when I smell emissions of the vehicles.gives me difficulty in breathing.

Great job RIO! Thnx UNILAB! Go get nike RIO :)

what can i say… only a runrio event can top another run event.

wala akong ibang masabi kundi, CONGRATULATIONS!!!

kelan ang susunod na runrio event? =)

great events… fully organized.. enough hydration stations… medics.. ambulances.. all runners are satisfied with this event..

hope more event like this one..

may results na ba?

I am a newbie and this is my 2nd 5K run. I enjoyed this race compared to the Adidas KOTR. The event was successful because it was so organized. Coach Rio was so hands on, personally going around and checking everything. You could see that a lot of planning was done to ensure it was worth waking up at 3 am for. Thank you Coach Rio for the awesome photo-op. It was a great bonus to my run!

It was very organized kaso they have limited photo booths and let’s face it, dami peeps gusto magpa-picture no. I waited for 2 hours to have a souvenir since it was my longest run so far (15K) but when I got near, the hard drive they were using for the booth crashed. GRRRR! And I was on my feet since 4am! To make it worse, some of the booths around were packing up and I don’t have a choice but to go home. Such a bummer.

A very successful event. Kudos to RunRio and Unilab. Love the giveaways especially the finisher’s shirt and the bag. Keep it up!! Congrats again. =)

Itaga na natin sa bato…basta Runrio, sulit at wala kang mahahanap na mali :)

Congratulations to Runrio and Unilab for an outstanding event. It was a nice feeling knowing that every peso we spent on this run was well worth it.

I’m looking forward to next year’s trilogy :)

Good Job! but special mention ang photobooth, sa dami ng runners na ngjoin 3 lang ung photobooth, at while nakapila kmi sa isang photobooth, naubusan pa ng photopaper. T_T

wla kming nagawa, after namin na pumila more than 1:30 hr, pumila ulit kmi. T_T

about sa route at water station, wlang problema.. ayos! ;)

I’d been to Runrio races since last year in Timex, but it’s the first time that I encountered a waterstation with banana. It helped a lot in my performance I know. I survived the 21K without cramps.

The Run United 2 RunRio Trilogy was a success..well organized..from sufficient hydration station, route signs, on time gun start, security, food-sanitation and exhibit hall. I just hope next time there will be more photo booth station to avoid such “lotto” like line.Nevertheless, two thumbs up..I’m looking forward to see the race result (official time result) posted here soon.

I hope Adidas took notes on how to organize a big running event. Congratulations team RunRio and Unilab for THE running event of 2010. Congratulations too to all long distance runners mga idol!

congrats to Coach Rio and his team for a very successful event. it has all the elements of what a running event should have. thanks to the foresight and experience of Coach Rio.

KUDOS! coach rio and unilab for a succesful fun run…my son really enjoyed it…the run with so many hydration station, unlike other run water lang kulang pa…

If this kind of race organize by Unilab/Rio, I’m sure I will finish my 21k below 1hr&42 min next time ( 46 yrs na po ako secret to ha! )

cheers!!!coach Rio and Unilab…Good job!sabi ko nga sa mga fellow runners ko,kahit hindi kayo magdala ng hydration kit,hindi tayo pababayaan ni coach!Talagang bumabaha ng tubig at powerade…Thanks so much,im satisfied with my 21k run and good news i beat my PR(Rexona Run) Yahoo!!!God Bless.

I joined the 3k with friends, was impressed , it was well organized and it really involved the whole family. Looking forward to the next trilogy…More power…Coach Rio, Unilab and RUnRio…

i have a bad experience with a running event who used Rio’s name-blue water day spa. but that’s about it. unilab run 2, as was its first run last March, was such a big success. this is my 3rd 21k and the same with Rio’s Rexona run, the banana item helped me finish the rest of 5k or so of my 21k.

sa mga nagku-comment, halata ang mga newbies-yung mga pumipila sa photo booths hehehehehe! peace to you all… actually, even Drew (Arellano) commented na mas marami pa ang nakapila sa photo booths kesa nanunod sa stage at sa mga game booths hehehe! i won a lot of prizes in this event. unilab, you are one of the best sponsors… next year, pipiliin ko na ang mga runs ko talaga… definitely no no na ang adidas… kayo ang nag-prove na not all expensive thing is worth the thing hehehe!

kakainggit yung mga 21 and 32k runners… kelan kaya ako magkaka-medal?

=)

galing!!! eto na yung standard na dapat gayahin ng ibang organizers – lalo na ng kotr :)

CLAP…CLAP…CLAP…award winning ang event…congrats runrio…sna my award event pra sa mga nago-organise ng mga run…pra naman galingan din ng ibang organiser…hehehe… peace!

I joined 15 runs this year. This is best organized fun run ever. No more KOTR for me unless it’s organized by Rio. The bar had been raised, great job to Rio and his crew!!!

Sulit pag ganitong spoiled lahat runners sa lahat ng distances. Consistent na happy, from 3k runners to 32k.

the best si coach Rio! kudos to Runrio!

I’m so thankful that I had my first 15KM run with a RUNRIO as the event organizer.. Still the best and the marathon experience to beat… I had my first 10K run with Rexona Run and it was really great… CONGRATULAIONS Coach Rio! Basta talaga ikaw The Best! Walang masasabi! High Five! Two Thumbs Up! ♥♥♥

wala pa po ba ang race result ng 1st day (Nov 20, 2010)

kelan po yung result ng day 1 runners hehehe…excited first time eh..sana sa susunod me medal nrin ako…ty..first event ko to..ang msasabi ok da best kgya ng sabi nyo….

Its a great race and well organized!
Thank you for all the volunteers…and i hope next time there will be a CATEGORIZATION for the age level…
kawawa nmn kc ang mga senior…

Bakit po wala yung mga name namin sa pinalabas ninyong result ng 1st day. Tama naman po ang pagkakalagay namin ng D-TAg at sinunod po namin ng mabuti kung ano ang nakalagay sa instruction nito. Final no po ba yung result na nilabas nyo? Nakaka.low morale naman… I thought maganda yung result ng paggamit ng D-tag…

cheers to all who run in Runrio leg 3! the best ang organizer..:)

@bug.runner, where did you see the results?

Congrats!!!!! SUPER Galing ng Runrio and Unilab, very organized, this is what you call FunRun, they really care that’s WHY Runners Enjoy,and ang ganda pa ng singlet worth it sa fee, di gaya ng adidas super sulit ang galing talaga!, sana nga “NO MORE KENYA” Adidas ask the SERVICE of Runrio para may tumakbo pa sa event nio. God bless.

Sulit ang binayad ko for this run…Keep it going.

wala na akong masasabi … sinabi nyo ng lahat. It’s really a wonderful run. See you at BGC run!

@bug meron na bang result?

Glad that majority winners in this event were Filipinos… big applause for them…

@bug may results na po, saan nakapost?
baka yung unang Unilab United Run for Wellness po ang nakita mo? :)
ako rin kasi na-excite, nadownload ko at narealize na hindi pa pala yun yung results. :)

@pinoyfitness

sorry naman sa kulit sa results! :)

excited kami eh

sa event na ito, alam mo kung saan napunta ung ibinayad mo. literal na maliligo ka sa dami ng tubig. malayo ka pa lang, sinasalubong ka na ng finishers bag mo. maganda ang konsepto ng banana stations. magaling ung idea ng rest nest. ang daming directional markers at marshals, hindi ka maliligaw sa ruta

Conratulations unilab! congrats RUNRIO! ang galing talaga. SULIT ang bayad ng mga runners. Super organised! super efficient! this is should be the standard for all running event organizers, hindi puro kapalpakan at halatang napagkikitaan lang ang mga runners!

Kudos to Unilab & RUNRIO Team!!! Well done! A standard to keep up with when organizing & planning a running event. Worth every peso paid for & getting up at 3am. I sincerely hope that other organizers would take note, learn & apply in their event. Thank you to all the volunteers who took their jobs seriously & made this event a success. Hats off to you all.

This was a great run! The best I had this year! Daming hydration stations, daming give-aways, daming gimmik. COngratulations Unilab at Runrio! :-)

Congratulations! My first time to join Unilab’s race event and it was worth it. Very very organized and great value for my money.

congratulations Coach Rio for a job well done..

ndi kami nkapagpa-picture sa photobooth pero ok lng kz may photobooth din nmn ang Revicon & I-ON, dun na lng kmi bumawi.. thanks a lot din dahil sa Freshen up Station, nawala khit pano lagkit sa katawan pagkatapos tumakbo…

More events to come, sure na tatakbo ulit kmi ng hubby ko…

Good j0b Rio!… The best talaga mga Running events nyo… Sarap!…

Kudos to Coach Rio,his Team and Unilab…so far the best run for 2010, very organized and lots of hydration stations..may free banana pa :)Thanks for making my first 15k run memorable and most of all FUN!!!!

Ibang klase talaga pag UNILAB…hindi na to ma duplicate pa ng ibang running events..not in this lifetime… UNILAB YAN!!

another successful fun run for RunRio… well organized yung event, as I’ve seen last Saturday many partcipant enjoyed the whole race and even the recreation activities (kahit dko npuntahan lahat sobrang haba ng pila eh). the only problem that we encountered was the distribution of Health Kit according to MS. ANA during the race sya mkukuha and yet during the event wala daw instruction :( sayang lang effort ko from laguna to manila just to claim the health kit anyways I enjoyed the whole event…

Ibang klase talaga pag-Runrio ang nag-organized worth-it yung perang binayad mo, di katulad ng Adidas 850 petot wala akong nakuha kundi sama ng loob at picture na i-da-download mo pa sa internet pakunswelo-debobo…

the marks it left will last a lifetime! bravo zulu!

Congratulations RUNRIO and UNILAB. This is my Nth long run but 1st without hydration belt. I want to run 42km without hydration belt. Let’s have 32km for the first 2 legs and 42km on the 3rd leg next year.

results please. as always runrio nice organization, unilab great sponsor.

ok ang event. first time ko sumali and I enjoyed it a lot kahit na lapit na lumawit dila ko (lol) 5k lang yon ha. more training pa. Congrats sa runrio, ang galing nyo maghandle ng event, dami giveaway, sayang nga lang naubusan ng mens/womens health magazine. mapapasali ako niyan pag runrio ang naghandle. saka ambait ni coach rio, kasi nakapagpakuha ako picture kasama siya, yong bebe ko rin, talagang hinabol namin siya para lang sa pics, ambilis niya maglakad e kung saan-saan pumupunta, hahaha. sali kami sa bgc run, sana ganun din kaganda ang event. Go coach Rio!!! Go!!!

I ran my second half-marathon in this event and it was GREAT!!! You really have to hand it over to Coach Rio de la
Cruz for such an ORGANIZED, SYSTEMATIC, DEATH-FREE (ehem Milo run ehem)and literally a water-drenched running event!!! Sa dami ng water stations at sponges, there’s no way any runner would be dehydrated!!! Way to go Coach! Basta organized by Runrio, expect it to be the best!=)

it was the best run ever …. so far!!!!

Aside from the well organized AVON run, this run rio event is also one of the best. Congrats Coach Rio, maurag ka talaga mag organinze ning running event. dapat ang adidas kotr mag adal sa imo kung paano mag organize. Proud to be bicolano…

wahhh may result na!

got my 15k results!… dahil magaling ang organizer, yung unang half mary ko would be with runrio.

ano ba yung next nila na may 21k? yung nike 5k, lang eh. :D

Anybody here who registered at ROX last Oct 11, 2010 when the system was apparently “down”? I did and now my name is not in the list but my bib number is, therefore, my registration was not entered completely. Premature ata yung congratulations ko hehe.

wala ang name ko sa 3k run result kahit bib number :=( tumakbo din ako ng 5k the next day, andun naman name ko pero sabay kong niregistered yung 2 runs ko eh..

Nice pix!

look back & smile,

if you don’t,

sorry. . . .

Question!! regarding dun sa 3rd Column, Split 1.53km (for 3km)ano yung time dun? base sa chip time or gun time?

Thankx!!

di maganda kumuha camera man, wala ako kahit isang shot hehehehehhe…

@fresh – tama! ako din wala kahit isang kuha. Tumakbo pa naman ako ng 20 & 21. sabi pa naman na ‘o look back’ look back naman ako sabay thumbs-up, yun pala wala din hahahahaha..tapos sabi nong isang photographer, ‘o mam madami ka ng pics sakin’ … yun pala wala din kahit isa :=)) sa photovendo na lang ako mag-aantay ..

Great event. My first run after laying off the run circuit for 3 years. I can not really make comparison dahil iba yung time “namin” e, hehehe. Judging from the comments I read here, RunRio is now the standard. Good that I am doing the RUN BGC this weekend which is also being spearheaded by Coach Rio para me validation. But as far as having the Kenyans off the events, I disagree. It sounds defeatist to not be challenged by their capability. Maganda nga that they are here to raise the bar for us. Otherwise, our best will not be as good. Its a free world folks. Masarap manalo pag me challenge.

buti yung iba wala lang ang name o kaya bib number,,sa akin wala name and bib no.,,sad naman….:(

Great Run..Congrats to all the finisher..more power..

my sister isn’t included in the 3k results

ito na ang best time ever ko 1:41 sa 21k, kaya lang wala yung name ko sa results bib# lang… bib#2514 but overall its a great run. thanks runrio!!!pakihabol name ko para happy…

hi kindly correct the name of BIB # 4529 from Manuel to Samuel (15k)di pa rin pala nachange ng New Balance-Edsa Shangrila..thanks a lot!

good pm Sir, i checked the 15k result no name ,rank 652 sex male ,bib# 4355, kindly put name Richard Sun,gun time 01:47:42:06 All fun run result i collect and filed especially UNILab.

wow!!!!!!!!!!! amazing how I rank 35 @ 15k…….IT WAS SO MAZING HOW I “I” BELIEVE TO MY SELF THAT I CANT GET OVER THE SAID RUN,……..

“HOW COACH RIO BELIEVED ON US”

TNXS

when i checked my finishers kit @ home, there is no finishers shirt. i want to avail of it. how? i ran 21k by the way.

I’m waiting for the Photovendo to post the pix. By the way, I rank 27th in the 15K run.

Hehehe…tagal nmn ng official photos natin..

Hey! Tagal naman ng photovendo pictures. I wanna change my dp na. Haha. Make it fast please. :)

onti pang patience guys lalabas din yang photovendo….for the meantime enjoy the race analysis thru run pix…kakatuwa…thnx runrio!

wag na sana pasalihin yang mga kenya …ginawa na nilang hanapbuhay lahat ng fun run… para pinoy din ang manalo … hindi laging mga negro at negra…kasi pati 3k 5k 10k 21k at 32k sinalihan nila ang kakapal ng mukha..kung may anak yang mga iyan isasali nila sa 500 mtr…mmmmmp!!!

meron ng pics sa photovendo!!!

It was my first 3k run and i appreciate runrio, unilab and photovendo for making this a memorable.

good job coach Rio, da best talaga kapag Rio ang dating, nxt tym …. regards

Kainis I can’t find any pictures of me from Photovendo! I’m pretty sure they were able to take a picture of me when I was running. Sayang that’s a souvenir sana. I hope they’re not done uploading the pictures yet. But good job to coach Rio for the very organized event. All hands up! :)
