Thank you for the info @GenRo. Guys help naman how to get to Riovana? I really want to join the run on sunday! Thank you :)

as much as excited sana ako sa run na ito — but i cant help it pero nakakastress din isipin na … wala pa ang race kit ko considering this is gonna be on sunday. I guess I am not alone.
I completely understand that we do have extreme weather conditions the past few days but what bothers me is that I registered around early July and yet I have not yet received my kit… i just hope this will not be another C5 marathon wherein runners were sooooo uber confused with the kit distribution. sigh.
Good luck to all of us – pati na sa mga tatakbo sa regent!! :)

open pb registration???
i want to join 21k…
kung close na registration…
pls txt me kung may nagbebenta ng kit…

@pyxcel – di k tlga nag iisa. as of now eh wla p din un race kit ko. 2mwag ako last wk sa RunRio at ang sbe eh nkdeploy n daw sa AirSpeed un mga race kits at intayin daw sa wk n un pero wla dumating. 2mwag ako last monday ulet at ang sbe eh due to bad weather eh di nkayang idistribute ng AirSpeed pero due date dw nila ng distribution eh today (Wed). sna nga dumating n. hehehe.. excited n din ako at the same time eh worried din kc laging umuulan at di ako mkpractice sa morning eh 21K p ttakbuhin ko.. tsk tsk tsk

sana di maresched

mukhang tuloy naman ito sa sunday. 50% chance of precipitation sa linggo according sa weather forecast =)

naku ang lakas pa din ng ulan sana sa linggo hindi na gnyan..ung run800 postponed na ung takbo sana matuloy ito..

Nakikinita ko na, ma reresched itong Rexona runs :)

Pero sana naman hinde kasi wala nang magandang event this August.

Yung 711 opted for a refund na kasi olats ang mga ibibigay sa 21K runners.

kailan ba nag postpone ang runrio?

Guys – sad news.. kktwag ko lng sa RunRio at confirmed n postponed nga to due to weather issues… wla p masabe n date. check n lng daw un site.. haizzt..kakalungkot nman talaga.

This event has been postponed due to bad weather according to RunRio.. sayang di pa tinuloy pero cguro mas OK n din kc di ako nkpag training ng maayos dahil sa sunod sunod n ulan pero excited p nman ako d2. tsk tsk tsk.

to RunRio – sna nman po wag nyo itapat ng Sep. 2 kc mag register ako sa Milo Run San Pablo…

since di nman n 2loy to ng Aug 12 eh bka pde sa Aug 18 n lng.. wag nyo n po sna maxado idelay..

@Brandon – malamang maextend un registration kc postponed na to kya may pagkakataon kp n mag register.

hanggat wala advice from runrio na postpone ang event na eto, tuloy ang takbo sa linggo…

As expected, posponed na nga.. kaso para atang matagal masyado.

As per Rio:

Dear Runners,

Due to the heavy rains, we will be postponing the REXONA RUN 2012 event to SEPTEMBER 23, Sunday still at the Mall of Asia grounds. We feel that due to the current calamity, it would be inappropriate to still push through with the event. We have taken into consideration that a lot of the runners may be living in affected areas, and that our route marshals are part of the AFP so they will be busy with relief operations.

Instead, we will be focusing our efforts on relief operations this weekend, particularly in Marikina. You are very much welcome to participate or help out in any way. More details will be posted soon.

Thank you for understanding. Please stay safe and dry!

Coach Rio

awww…back to back 21k run..
1 week apart sila ng RU3…

how sad :-(. postponed daw ito as per employee ng runrio. sa sept. 23,2012 daw ireresched. pero they will release an official statement later or tomorrow pa daw kasi katatapos pa lang ng meeting ngayon.

@Slash – may new schedule nba?

thanks coach Rio for the postponement of this event :)

Coach Rio

baka naman gumanda na panahon tomorrow till sunday…kaso durog ako nito kasi walang praktis dahil sa ulan at baha..

hoping that this run will still push through on sun, aug12. it’s hard to run at 2 consecutive runs runUnited 3 (21km or 32km) then rexona run. other runners might not be available on the proposed date (sept.23). hoping for thorough review on rescheduling. thank you.

Pano na lang ang Camsur!? Conflict naman po sa sked… Baka pde wag na lng September 23…….

wag naman sept. 23….gawin sanang aug. 19 0r 26 man lang…

oo nga ang tagal pa nga sept.23, mauuna pa ang ru3, dapat before sept. kala ko hinde uso ang postponed sa rio races, rain or shine diba? marami naman kalsada na pwedeng daanan for relief operation diba coach rio.?

Here is my dilemma, Sept. 16 RU-21k, 23 Rexona-21k, 30 KOTR-16k. Rexona/Rio sobrang late naman ng rescheduling nyo! And I’m sure alam nyo naman na there is a big chance na maraming runners from rexona ang tatakbo sa RU since both runs are organized by Rio kaya may idea na kayo about that. And KOTR is also one popular run. So malamang ganito din ang magiging dilemma ng iba. No question reason for your postponement just the date…

sept 23 nga daw imomove as per runrio employee.

Ask ko lang. pwede pa bang magparegister if ever na mamumove yung event.. thanks..

Dapat hindi September 23! NOOOO! Pano na yung mga may previous scheduled events to join on September 23? Like me, I’m already registered for a tri event way before I registered for this run. That’s so unfair! Change the re-scheduled date please!!! Sayang pera!

i need refund… saan po pwde irefund coach, sana they answer about this. ru3-sept.16, rexona run-sep.23, kotr-sept.30, huh paika-ika tyo nyan…

@ET
From a reliable source, okay lang ang Sept.23 for the re-sked kasi walang CAMSUR Marathon this year that’s going to happen.

No conflict din.

@Ms_Mrs – first time yatang hindi natuloy ang CAMSUR? napanuod ko kasi sa news nagtatalo at nagsisigawan in front of camera yung mag-ama dahil sa planong pagkakaruon ng dalawang district sa camsur… hehehe sorry OT na ito :-)

REFUND! ! !

IN-BETWEEN NG RU3 AT KOTR! ! !

august 26 or september 2 na lang sana or much better kung may refund option

not cool!

I hope they listen… Sa mahal ng mga fee sa mga runs like this sana naman may say ang mga runners.

Open registration for 21k please!!!

please change the date. wag sana sept 23. thanks!

Aug 26 nalang.

Coach Rio thanks for the considerations :)

Andaming baha stay safe!!!

How Sad Naman. Pwede po bang magpa refund. Our group is not available for that Date. Please re-schedule naman to other date. Thanks.

Yay! Postponed… paparegister sana ako bukas available na kaya sa Toby’s Trinoma ang registration? Pa-advise po! Thanks…

yesss.. buti nlng na postpone.. dhil wla tlga kmeng training at maxado pang maulan… thank you.. thank you.. coach rio

since postponed po 2 eh pki update din po un advertisement nyo sa radio kc Aug 12 p din eh. to RunRio, maxado nmn po yta tgal nun Sep 23! sna this Aug p din kc as per previous comments eh my mga sked cla ng run ng month ng sep at mhirap pra knila ang tumakbo ng sunod2. please consider nmn po.

Hindi na ba pwede magextend registration dito?

Sana may 10k. pag nagdecide sila magextend registration. Im sure dami tatakbo sa 10k.

Saludo ako sayo Coach Rio. Napabilib mo na naman ako by postponing the rexona run and instead doing relief operations. More Power to you and the people working for you. God bless.
As a runner, ok lang na di matuloy or magkaconflict with another event basta ang reason ay valid…i dont need the finisher’s medal and i dont even need a refund. It’s for the greater good of the many who were afflicted by this recent flooding.

sayang naman, naibenta ko na slot ko sa regent for this event pero postponed…anyway, its a good decision for the organizer. LETS HELP OTHERS THAN RUN

naintindihan ko guys na maraming events this coming august and sept pero sana maisip natin na mas marami ang my kelangan ng tulong natin lalo na mga kababayan natin na lubog sa baha at kelangan ng tulong natin. salute for the decision of runrio.

resked after two weeks pwede na coach rio…. wag naman sept23…ru3 rexona kotr…. laspag nko nun pati bulsa!!!!

I salute Coach Rio for choosing to postpone the event and give priority for relief operations to our kababayans who are affected by the calamity. And giving consiredations for other runners who are living in affected areas.
He also mentioned that route marshals will not be available since they are part of AFP and they are called for duty. That is true my fellow runners, I myself is just a reserved officer was called for duty to do relief operations. Since Tuesday morning we are helping our kababayans who were stranded on the road so they can go home.
Rexona Run should be my birthday run and I set myself to break my PR for 21k. I already trained hard under the rain for 6 weeks. Yet I am happy that it will not push thru coz helping others is more important. I even cancelled my birthday party and I will just donate my money to help the relief operations. My family and friends are more than happy to know that I am cancelling my party.
Anytime you can run 21k or even longer if you want. Come to think of it you are better off than those who are affected. You got your shelter, your family and loveones, even your properties. Other they have nothing.
My fellow runners we us help our fellow kababayans even in our own little way.

Extended registration until Aug 10? Bukas na yun ah. Extend naman kahit one week pa. Mahirap lumuwas from Bulacan just to register pangit pa ang whether now.

@ mel, if you want bilhin mo na lang yung kit ko, 21k individual.

hi, just wanna ask is there any extension sa registration for rexona run tutal nman namove po ng sept.23 tanx.. :D

@jaycee saan location mo? wala pa din kasi akong kit eh..

@jay I can do meet up sa Makati. Or sa Market.

Sabi na nga ba postponed. bugbog mga paa ko dito.

unilab – rexona – kotr ./ shit@#$@#$@#$

since meron bilib na bilib ka at hindi na nangangailangan ng medal at ok lang din maging conflict sa sched nila, idodonate na din lang daw yung registration nyo. :P

ask lang me on how can I give my used clothing as my gesture of sympathy to the
victims of heavy rains. Please let me know how?

Thanks a lot that you have postponed this event for the benefit of those who not only affected by flood but also those who can not do their training regiment because of the
road condition.

Good luck and God bless to all the runners.

I will look forward for the 2012 Run Rio Trilogy Leg 3…

OK n un Sep 23.. sna di n malipat ng Sep 2 kc may Milo Run sa San Pablo. mabuti n rin at na postponed kc wla ako naging training due to bad weather. Good luck n lang po sa may sunod n run sa Sep. sana wlang dumating na bagyo sa date n 2. God Bless us all runners.

I hope that the organizers will be able to offer an answer to all the queries the soonest time possible. Valid yung postponement pero there are valid reasons as well by the registrants for not acceding on the date chosen. The most feasible solution if they cannot cancel the date is to allow a refund pero until the organizers answer these queries hindi matatapos ang confusion. Reading the comments here, ilang araw ng may nagtatanong pero walang maoffer na answer. So organizers, you may want to act on this. Thanks.

@jaycee, may nakakuha na po ba sa kit mo at discounted price na po ba? hehehehe

@runriot di bugbog ang paa mo dyan. Let us assumed that this will be the distance you will run 32k at ru3, 21k at rexona run, and 16.8k at KOTR. The distance you are running is decreasing and one week apart. Even if you will run 21k at ru3, 21k at rexona run, and 16.8 at KOTR. Bugbog lang ang paa mo at katawan kung di regular ang pag takbo mo. If you don’t run 4 times to 5 times a week at walang cross training sigurado wasak ka.

yehey atleast di na sabay ung regent at rexona!
registered both yesterday at riovana and runnr at bgc!

Wasakan month sa sept…21k 21k 16.8k nyhahahhaaha

after cguro ng adidas maka pag 5k nga…

since na move yung RUN.. sana pwede iEXTEND din yung registration.. any info regarding that one? Thanks!

panu mag pa refund?

buti ns lsng at na.open ko ang website ng pinoyfiness, kung hindi mag,isa pala ako tatakbo sa MOA bukas ng madaling araw… tnx na din sa info

hangang kelan ang extended registrations?

While the reason is understandable, I still do not buy the late notification and the limited way of communicating it, in these day of advance communication technology. The organizers should have had foresight immediately after the recent weather events. After all they have casually broadcast “Rain or shine”.

I presume that a number do not have ready or easy access to the internet. Organizer and sponsor should have sent an SMS to all those registered to warn them. My guess is, some will be in MOA tomorrow. Wanna bet?

In the spirit of fairness, organizer should open the possibility of refund for those who can not make their new race date.

@jerome tan – i received txt from run rio 2hrs ago. at mlamang n ngtxt brigade n cla s lahat ng registeted runner. for me kc eh ok n rin n niresked kc wla tlga aq nging trng due to weather condtion. un nga lng medyo thal yta ng new sked. cguro un lng din un day n avail ang MOA. with regards to refund eh bka mag update din cla s mfa susynod n araw kc mg eextend din cla ng registration.

Oooppps….I take it back. They sent the SMS. SORRY :-(

REXONA

@budz

i think.. yung ibang nagpupumilit magpa-refund.. ibenta na lang nila yung slot nila.
eh di tapos issue niyo. ^_^

Uhm. . . Sa mga nagrerequest ng refund for the rexona run, pwede niyong ibenta sa akin ung dalawang 21k bib no. and singlet’s niyo.Hindi kasi ako umabot sa registration period ng rexona run eh. T_T

And it will be my pleasure kung MA-EXTEND pa ang registration period nito, kasi this a prestigious and very succesful fun run. :)

Hope the registration will be extended.

So, any takers on my 21K race kit then? Wrote
Runrio organizers for a refund. No response thus far.

If anyone is interested with mine, with small size shirt(not used at all), send me an email at [email protected]

I thank Coach Rio for being sensible enough to other runners who are devastated by the recent flood. I may not be one of them but I feel for them. Just wanna know how will I extend my help to the victims? Salamat!

Since extended naman baka puede pa po mag register ng 21k :(

Pwde pa bang pa-extend ng registration? plz… mtgal p nman ung event eh.. plzz..
