Registration on-going for Rexona Run at MOA

MANILA, Philippines – The Rexona Run 2012 fires off Sept. 23 with a new category spicing up the event and more prizes and new features on tap at the SM Mall of Asia grounds in Pasay. 

Registration is ongoing with deadline set on Sept. 16 or until slots last at Riovana stores in Bonifacio Global City and Katipunan, and Toby’s branches in Trinoma and SM Mall of Asia. 

Online listup is also accepted at www.runrio.com from now until 12 midnight of Sept. 9.

Events on tap are the 5K, 21K solo or, for the first time ever, the 21K relay race category. 

The top three finishers in the 21K solo will receive P7,000, P5,500, and P4,000, respectively, while P5,000, P4,000, and P3,000 will be given to each member of the top finishers in the 21K relay division. 

The top three placers in the 5K category will also get P4,000, P3,000 and P2,000, respectively.

Also on tap in the event, part of the Runrio Series, is Rexona’s challenge for runners to beat the “industry standard.”

Commemorative key chains will be given to finishers who end the race on or before the recommended finishing time. 

To qualify, 5k runners must cross the finish line on or before 6:20 a.m., 30 minutes from gun start and all 21k runners need to finish on or before 7 a.m., two hours after gun start.

To help runners train and commit to a faster finishing time, Rexona Run 2012 has created the Rexona Run Outrun Yourself App, which can be downloaded for free via the Rexona Men Facebook page. The application helps runners set a target time for the category to be run courtesy of a running playlist and an occasional voice over as their time check, which they can listen to while training. During the actual run, the application can also be used to help runners set their pace.
