  1. Good morning Walkers!
    Masaya ang ILOG PASIG RUN no?
    Kudos to all the runners & supporters na tumakbo! @ sa mga Organizers na nagpasara ng Route at Libreng sakay sa LRT/MRT maraming salamat po!

    Few corrections lang po next year:

    *ayusin ang mga hydration booth na ilagay sa map xe wala akong nakita halos
    * Dear Maynilad, Allergic po kami sa ipinaiinom nyong tubig sa amin… most of us nagkakaroon ng Diarrhea dahil may lasa po ang tubig ninyo
    * Cont…Maynilad sana po kanina di nyo po sinasayang yung tubig xe nanghihinayang po ako sa tubig na napupunta sa gutter at di naman nagagamit ng maigi…Sabagay mapupunta naman sa Ilog pasig yun ulit..

    * Pocari sweat, bakit po kayo nagtatago sa likuran na kung saan di nadaraanan ng mga finisher?
    * Salamat sa Libreng LUGAW!!

    maganda naman ang po ang ating run/walk/run (xe pag lumuwag takbuhan naaaa?)

    CHAMPION talaga! at SMART C! Sponsored!

    Happy na ito ang pinakamasayang walk ko as a runner…

    Matututo kang mag PIGIL!!! na tumakbo kaya hinayaan mo na lang sila

  2. Done 21K Pasig Run today…
    Sad to say, I incurred injury on my right knee.. It really hurts til now… kinda knee ligament injury… i think my knee was twisted or something during the run…
    Anyway, I’m still happy I was able to ran with coach Rio.
    Also to the people along Paco Manila, they are really nice to all runners and even cheering us. Kakaibang route yung dinaanan, but anywhere you’ll find marshal who were very nice assisting us. Two thumbs up.

  3. grabe! i joined the 3k event! sobrang daming tao :) 19:38 time ko based on my watch ^__^ pretty decent time considering na sobrang daming participants! sumakit legs ko… d ako trained sa lateral running! wahahahaha

  4. Thank you very much. I did not like the gifts given after the marathon. More detergents and plastics for all the participants. With t shirt 100% promotion of the Champion detergent instead of PASIG RIVER,what a pity.

  5. hindi po ganung enjoy kasi hindi makalagaw sa dami ng participants. 10-15 minutes after ng gunstart ako nakastep sa starting line. some of the participants pa eh were not really into running so talagang naglalakad lang sila.. di ka makasingit agad. good thing i finished my 5km run ng wala pang 1hour.

    katuwa ung give aways nila.. haha. panget lang eh binigay na nila agad ng hindi pa tapos ang run.. e mabigat bigat din un

  6. Mahirap mag organize ng race event, let alone ganito kalaking event with that number of participants. Pero sana next time pag sinabi niyong (organizers) na 4am ang assembly time and 4:45 ang gunstart, be true to your word. Sige, sabihin na nating hindi maiwasang mag start ng late pero hindi naman to the point na more than 45 minutes kayong late. It’s kinda unreasonable na. Frustrating to runners who wake up extra early.

  7. the run? – ok naman kung mauuna ka sa pila. makakatakbo ka.

    hydration? – talo., nawasa ung tubig. pero expected ko nayun. kaya bumili nalang ako ng bottled water.

    Experience? – sobrang saya dami kong nakitang kakaiba. tumakbo ng nakacasual,naka kaki shorts at iba pa. hahaha

  8. fun walk ang nangyari. hehe! pero it was fun, great cause. sana record holder ang pinas. dun sa nabangga kong kumukuha ng picture sa harap ng ccp and nalaglag yung cam, i’m really sorry, hinahabol ko kase yung kasama ko. my bad! sorry! anyway, congrats to all runners!

  9. so far so good..yun nga lang 445 gunstart nag bobooo na kami kasi dami ads,,,etc grabeh inabot ata ng one hour ba??aga ko pa nmn nagicing..sobrang dami ng participants,well thats gud to know nmn na tumulong tlga tyo to rehabilitate ilog pasig yung iba di na tumakbo andun n ata agad and same sa sinabi nila me bitbitin kami bago mag finishline hehe..paglalabahin agad kami haha anyways had a great moment pa din

  10. it’s a great advocacy for everybody to save our nature… it’s our responsibility to take care of it.. i hope that pasig river will be cleaned..in time.. but at least we support this meaningful event.. for me, congratulations to all runners!! just continue this kind of advocacy… ngenjoy ako kasi instead of 3k i think more than 5k nalakad-takbo ko sa sobrang traffic sa libertad papuntang CCP papuntang MOA at pbalik ulit ng libertad ahahaha… go go go runners… we enjoy and help others specially our environment…

  11. Walkathon ang nangyari hindi FUN RUN.
    Ayun, lumipat tuloy ng 5k, bumalik, lumipat ulit. Yung ibang 3k, matagal yung hinihintay bago umandar para nga naman makatakbo. Sana lahat ganun na lang para hindi na umalis sa line yung iba.

    It was fun, yung tubig, nako. Hindi masyadong organized, but it was fun. Ang goal lang naman kasi, ay makatulong tayo sa Rehabilitation ng Ilog Pasig.

    Congrats sa mga Nakatapos ng kani-kaniyang race. :))

  12. I admire those who have foreseen the chaotic traffic for this event and was able to make it to park their vehicles near the starting line or the finish line. For me I need to leave and park my car at Pasay City Hall because the traffic was not moving anymore in all roads leading to Roxas Blvd. So I needed to run to the starting line in Pedro Gil, ran 5K to MOA and walk back to Pasay City Hall…..next time I should know better.

    The run itself was super fun and the fanfare after that. Target rich environment for celebrities and beauties.

  13. not a good choice of starting point!!! like me south p ko manggagaling tapos traffic n sobrang layo pa parking mo kc hangang herritage ka lang, so from herritage lakad to vito cruz roxas blvd…hope nxt time wag n sakupin un north bound para d sobrang traffic…sana katulad n lang din nun last year

  14. Nakakadala ang run 4 pasig river! Sa susunod (kung may susunod pa!) e WALK 4 PASIG RIVER ang i-organized nyo kse d k nman mkktakbo kung sangkaterba ang tao sa kalsada noh! Bat nman d man lng nilinis ang kalsada,may mga patay na pusa! At habang nglalakad ka e bglang may tatawid na mga tindero ng pakwan, mais, may mga basurero, susmio! Yan ba ang organized pra sa inyo??? E talgang d papasok sa Guiness kung ganyan ka-palpak!

  15. Run 4 Pasig River! ( Para po sa ikagaganda ng ilog ).
    For The Guinness Record! ( Record para po sa Pilipino ).

    As we all know donation po ito para sa improvement ng river tapos sa ikakarangal ng bansa.

    Sana po wag na mag sisihan !

  16. thank you for the opportunity to be of help rehabilitate Ilog Pasig.

    i had a great feeling not only that i did something for our environment but to bond with my kids during the fun run.

    looking forward for another world-breaking event. congratulations!

  17. “Nakakadala ang run 4 pasig river! Sa susunod (kung may susunod pa!) e WALK 4 PASIG RIVER ang i-organized nyo kse d k nman mkktakbo kung sangkaterba ang tao sa kalsada noh!

    I’m not sure if you are in the right state of mind posting this message. I bet you don’t even know the goal why you’ve participated in this event. This run is for a good cause, i would recommend you undergo self evaluation. trust me it would help :)

    Congratulations to all participants!

  18. This event should be renamed Walk For Pasig River. I’m glad I didn’t join this year’s event. Last year was a disaster, doubled this year. Last year had 160,000+ runners, but I heard from a good source that only 80,000+ ran yesterday. Thats a big ROFLMAO guys. We have the world’s worst airport and other stuff, and now they can add this event to the list!

    TIP: hire better race organizers next time. Look for quality in service.

    I’d say this is a big FAIL woohoo

  19. Sad to say didn’t made it. Maybe the other reason is lack of dev’t in terms of organizing the event. Last year 116k but this time 87k so where is 29k maybe these are the people dismay the last year event but anyway. The other reason is the registration fee is expensive. And the route if you leave in q.c or north it is a hassle to go in roxas blvd. or ccp. I would suggest pls include edsa as one of the alternative route and sky way.also Some other run is inc. the singlets. Hopefully the organizer next year will take a look on this part if you want to be reach 150 or 200k runners pls less the reg. and with singlets. Kudos to all runners this year n hopefully next year we reach the target.

  20. Lol!!! Patay na pusa! :) yung mga gusto pa rin tumulong sa environment, may run ang haribon. Mag tanim ng puno for each participant…join tayo! Para sa environment din to :)

  21. I agree kay sir Lee. This run is really not for runners technically na gusto talagang tumakbo. Dahil sa dami ng participants, expected na ang ganun mangyayari. This run really is for a cause other than running. Kung gusto po natin takbuhan talaga, sana sa 10k po tayo, 1,600 lang runners dun, o di kaya sa ibang running event.

  22. para sa akin na first timer sa ganitong Fun Run, masaya ako sa naging resulta ng event. Napaka liit na daghilan na alng yon mga tubig, maduming kalsada kahit di naman na experience. basta masaya ako dahil naging part ako ng a run for the Pasig River 11.20.2011. hindi ko alam kung paano iattache ang picture dito.

  23. To Mr. Lee: Yaw ko po kayo patulan noh, pro sna e OPEN kyo sa mga comments kse pra rin nman to sa ikagaganda ng susunod na event. Self eval?…Bka ikaw ang klangan mg-self eval kse masyado kang exaggerated kung mgreact…kya nga may comments d2 pra sa mga puna e, alangan nmang puro praises ang mbabasa mo syempre klangan mo rin iaccept yung opinion ng iba noh.

  24. done my 10k….

    naku next time kung gusto nyo tumakbo talaga… tapos may mga student na kasali palagay ko long distances kayo tumakbo mas feel nyo ang funrun.. tulad sa 10k ganda ng ruta namin..

    @juvy… kaya next year mag 10k kana rin… gunstart pala namin nag start ng 530 ata yun..

    @ben… saan ang ruta ng 21k?

    yun nga lang daming walang tubig sa mga nakaposte na water stations sa 10k..

  25. i actually had a great time doing this run. mas masaya kung mas marami. bihira naman nangyayari to sa manila and it is for a good cause. i hope that improvements for a better pasig river will go on so that all of us will benefit.

    so next year ulit…..sana sa edsa naman…para wala rin pollution don….

  26. True @ firsttimerrunner. People come together in this event for one purpose, that’s is to help rehabilitate the river that we once seen clean. Its advocacy made a huge impact to our society, whether a student, worker, rich or poor, we believe we can make a difference :)

    As for powerhaus, please revisit your comment and tell me who is exaggerating :) You didn’t even suggest things to improve the event, instead you highlighted things which is way out of control of the organizers.

    I’ve been running for quite a while and joined numerous running events. I joined this event because i know, I’ve contributed something valuable to our environment, and not to talk about dead cats. Right powerhaus? :)

  27. sa mga nagrereklamo po sana naman be moderate sa comment natin lalo hindi naman kayo ang nagoorganize sana iconsider natin ang mga point na out of control talaga nang organizer unang una this is run for cause naman eh so madami talaga ang tao and lets all be proud and thankfull sa ating mga sarili ke LORD at sa mga nagorganize kasi di lang to beating or making the world record this is for making things better kasi for sure naman kahit di tayo direktang cause nang damage nang ilog pasig for sure may mga ginagawa tayo na nakakasira sa earth so lets take advantage na lang sa mga gantong event to join and help and be proud… yan hirap sa ating mga pinoy sasali sali tapos puro reklamo sus maryosep ka ingo hahaha…..

  28. We run (walk) the 3K with my daughter, son, nephew and my daughter’s classmate. We run/walk a total of 7K. Edsa was completely clogged as early as 4am. We walk from EDSA to Harrison st. going to Libertad st to take the LRT, their tv ads says LRT will be open as early as 4am and its free. From Libertad we walk along taft and turn left to Buendia and right going to CCP. Gun start was at 5:30 and we position our self at the first wave of 3K group. And it is at brisk walking pace from CCP to MOA globe. Along the way i tried to rehydrate through a Maynilad water station and i smell the stench of smell “pusali” on the water they are serving. Too late i already engulfed a few and i advise the kids not to try. Before we reach the MOA globe they placed a delineator and we thought it is the finish line. But the delineator was for the freebees. A pack of Champion laundry soap, a shirt, a juice drink and a luminous baller is handed to us. Finish line is still 300 meters to the right of MOA globe. An activity center and huge stage are set at the open field beside the One Esplanade. The kids enjoyed the presence of live bands while we rest to recover at the grassy activity area. Overall it was fun. =)

  29. Susmio Mr.Lee,klangan p talgang sbhin na sumasali ka sa mga running events e noh, e hindi nman ako interested sa kung ano ang na-contribute mo o ilan na sinalihan mo…ibida daw ba ang sarili, OMG! Alangan nmang sbhin ko pa kung pano mwwla sa eksena yung mga patay na pusa e noh? Syempre lam n ng organizer ang ggwin dun nxt time noh, hallleeer!!

  30. ang dami na talagang reklamador na runners or feeling runner. pls learn to anticipate beforehand possible outcomes for big events like these. ang goal dito is to help raise funds for the rehabilitation of the pasig river and not to satisy your own personal goals or selfish desires/needs. this was a learning expereince for all of us. it was really fun! i know they will do better in the coming years =) tulong tulong mga pilipino!

  31. Since this is my second time na makasali sa pasig river fun run, same pa din ang kinalabasan at kailangan lang ma improve.
    Una – maraming sumali sa event (11.20.11 pasig river fun run) nadaig natin yung mga tumakbo noong sumali sa (10.10.10 run for pasig) at sana na break natin yung guinnes world record!)
    Pangalawa – water station (noong dati sa 10.10.10 run for pasig river hindi sapat para sa lahat ng runners, ngaun 11.20.2011 pasig river fun run hindi nasunod sa sketch ng map kung saan nakalagay at ngaun meron na sponsor pocari sweat at maynilad kaso sa maynilad sana yung pinainom at pinamimigay nyo sa amin mga runners ay malinis na tubig at di galing sa pozo negro!.)
    Pangatlo- Portalet (noong dati sa 10.10.10 run for pasig river marami portalet kaso sira sira na at pagpasok mo nasa kabilang mundo ka na, in short marumi, mabaho at di kaayaaya, ngaun 11.20.11 pasig river fun run di sapat ang portalet na inilaan at same pa din nangyari marumi, mabaho at di kaayaaya.)
    Panglima- Course (noong dati sa 10.10.10 run for pasig river at ngaun 11.20.2011 pasig river fun run ay same ang nangyari magulo ang mga runners at mga pasaway, nag lakad na nga lang nalilito pa at yung iba d pa kabisado kung saan sila.)
    Panganim- singlet (noong dati sa 10.10.10 run for pasig river at ngaun 11.20.2011 pasig river fun run ay same ang nangyari hindi sila na complete singlet at di sumunod, mga pinoy talaga pasaway.)
    Pang anim- Mga sponsor (noong dati sa 10.10.10 run for pasig river kaunti ang sponsor ngaun 11.20.2011 pasig river fun run ang dami ng sponsor)
    Overall- My rate 5 out of 10 – Payo lang po paki improve naman para sa next year na run for pasig 2012 ay mawala na yung mga problema sa fun run at sana naman unawain ng organizer kaming mga runners at higit sa lahat mga opisyan ng ABS-CBN intindihin nyo po kaming mga runners- meron akong nakausap na mga organizer sabi nila maliit lang ang binayad sa kanila at marami naman sponsor na nakipag cooperate sana Makita ito ng ABS-CBN opisyal.
    Sa akin opinion po alam ko po na mahirap mag organize ng napakalaking event na to ngunit kailangan nyo pong gampanan ang inyong trabaho na mag organize ng maayos at safety nang mga runners (like in water station, portalet at race course)at sana wag kayong matulad sa runrio lagi inuuna nila ay kapakanan nila at di yung mga runners at ayaw nila tumangap ng mga kamalian nila.

    Pang anim- Mga sponsor (noong dati sa 10.10.10 run for pasig river kaunti ang sponsor ngaun 11.20.2011 pasig river fun run ang dami ng sponsor)
    Overall- My rate 5 out of 10 – Payo lang po paki improve naman para sa next year na run for pasig 2012 ay mawala na yung mga problema sa fun run at sana naman unawain ng organizer kaming mga runners at higit sa lahat mga opisyan ng ABS-CBN intindihin nyo po kaming mga runners- meron akong nakausap na mga organizer sabi nila maliit lang ang binayad sa kanila at marami naman sponsor na nakipag cooperate sana Makita ito ng ABS-CBN opisyal.

  33. Haha! you are really funny powerhaus. Your message only reflects what kind of a person you are. Anyway, im not gonna dwell on your hatred and frustration. I think u need to get a life :P

    We hope that all feedback and comments in this forum reached the organizer’s attention for them to work on developing this event in the coming years. But then again it’s a successful event and let’s be thankful everyone finished the race safe :)

  34. @pascual
    1) runforthepasigriver didnt break the record… 87,000 lang ang lumahok accdg to Inquirer.. marami siguro ang nadismaya last year kaya siguro ganito turn out.. pero okay na rin at least naka half naman.

    2) water stations sa 10K parang kulang.. i dunno last year kasi first time ko sumali..

    3) portalet in 10K was good.. enough naman siya.. i dunno kung sa 3k or 5k ang tinutukoy mo. iisang area lang ba for 3k and 5k?

    4) walang number 4 sumunod agad number 5

    5) oo nga may mga naligaw na 5k runners sa moa.

    6) according to the organizers separate ang singlet kasi hindi naman sa organizers un.. tinda yun ng abscbn kaya kokonti ang merong official singlet ayaw siguro nila makadagdag sa gastos… as per school naman, meron atang usapan na sariling design nila ang isusuot nila.

    walang number 7…

    as for your opinion naman..dagdagan ko lang.. maige siguro kung paghiwalayin nila ang ruta ng 5k at 3k… kasi yan ang kadalasang maraming registrants e… sa 10k walang naging problema.. maganda ang naging flow ng 10k.

  35. hahaha! U’re crazy Lee! Ngayon k p mgsslita ng ganyan e tpos k n mgreact s mga previous comments, pambhira! Narcissistic nga nman, i pity u:(

  36. I was a bit dissapointed with Run4ThePasigRiver… Yes, it was fun but some runners forgot why they were doing it. It’s for the environment and yet I saw some runners throwing their used plastic bottle anywhere and not in the proper trash bin. Plastic everywhere. Hope they do understand why they were doing such and not just focus on finishing the race.

  37. Wag na po tayo magsisihan. Para din naman po ito sa ating lahat na makikinabang sa proceeds. At higit sa lahat sa ating mahal na Kalikasan. Mahirap lang po ako pero sumali ako sa event. Share ko lang po yung sa akin lang na pananaw. Kulang na water station? Nagdala po ako ng sarili kong tubig. Walang baggage counter? Binitbit ko ang bag ko at tumakbo. Siksikan sa daan? I find my way pero I did not stop running. Nag enjoy po ako lalo na ganun karami ang nakita kong nag-participate sa event na ito. Kahit na walang freebies or giveaways ok lang po. Run For A Cause po ito. Sana wala na pong Blamestorming dito. Happy Running to everyone :)

  38. Most of the participants REALLY doesn’t care about the purpose of this Run4Pasig event. They just enjoy running. Can’t blame them.

  39. masaya ang experience ko sa RFPR 11.20.11….

    pero pagdating sa dfa nakaramdam ako ng pag iihi…oo! tama kayo! ihing-ihi nko at ang portalet c.r ay nasa finish line pa….

    see you next year ulit :)

  40. buti na l;ang nag-10km ako at nakatakbo ako. muntik lang ako sumuko kasi ang haba na ng tinatakbio ko, wala pa rin water station :) first time ko makakuha ng finishers shirt ;) ” champion” talaga :) at least won’t have to buy laundry detergent for two weeks :)

  41. @cavite runner,,hehe bro..galing ng comment mo ah,napanganga ako haha okay ganda ng morning ko medyo me mga nag babatuhan n ng comments sa forum,anyways napagod man tayo..number one siguro as a runner we do have a great experienced to learned from it a great fun still..

  42. haha.. bat nag aaway si mr lee at mr powerhaus..

    mr powerhaus, organizer yan si mr lee kaya puro praise ang gusto..

    malayang bansa ito.. mag post tayo ng gusto natin.. sus.. mr lee naman, mag post ka na lang ng sayo. mambabasag ka pa.

    i can say.. ok lang yung takbo. pero im not happy with it. only half ng attendees ng last year yung nagpunta. maybe now i know why.

  43. i was happy i ran my 10k nonstop.
    suggestions for next year:
    1. start on time!
    2. lakasan ang gunshot (wala kaming narinig sa 10k start line, weird)
    3. yung TIMEX sa finish line hindi nag-work (this is really disappointing and weird; the emcees kept thanking timex tapos ala kwenta sa huli)
    pero happy pa rin bec i know my 450php goes to something good.
    all the best for next year

  44. Powerhaus, if u want to be satisfied next time na sasali ka s running events, lipat ka sa 10km or21km para hindi clogged up ok. Baka nmn kc nagpacute ka lng s pasig run…hehehe…kung totoong runner ka, u will understand why clogged ung daan… Ilang taon k n b tumatakbo…baka nmn 1yr k p lng tumatakbo eh nagrereact k n ng ganyan.lots of people wants to help pasig kya expect m n maraming tao. And im pretty sure na nag 3 or 5 kms ka lng kya clogged up. Baka nga nagpacute ka lng…

  45. This comment is so late but i hope the message is not. It doesn’t matter whether the event is a walk or a run- it’s the objective that matters. Sadly, most of the participants did not seem to understand that the event is to save the Pasig River. I had to walk from DLSU to Folk Arts Theater to join my friends and along the way, I saw a lot of discarded plastic wrappers (marked Air 21)that used to contain the race bibs for the participants. Did the participants think that the trash they left behind will not go to the Pasig River? Most of the participants were college students who just do not care!!!
