I’m so dissapointed with the organizer! I will never run with them again! I’m the one who organized the 2oK relay here at my office and I left with no options but to extend my patience until I get those race kits tomorrow or Sunday morning! If not with them I’ll quit and ask for a refund! The time I spent calling and following up with them cost more than the P250 pesos I paid for this race. This is worst!

Mylene lopez told me they will setup a huge tent on early sunday to claim our race kits……its going to be disaster…

ROX dont want to commit anymore, they are just hoping also that race kits will be release today. Sana nga ma relase, sobrang hassle na ang magtatawag to confirm and follow-up. I called Kapit bisig this morning, they are now giving this number 3938214 (releasing daw) if we want to confirm the release of race kits. Sobrang gulo!

well, this is another incident similar to what happened to ADIDAS KOTR. runners getting their race packets at SM Megatrade had a hard time getting their kits but the actual conduct of the race was okey. i hope the race on sunday will be okey, too!

Hi esmagol,

Just called minutes ago and was able to talk to the main person incharge of the race kit (kathy or riza at 393 8214), I was told/promised that those who registered at ROX will be able to claim it by tomorrow. So I guess the same goes for other registration sites. Well that’s the promise, we’ll see then by tomorrow.

Mr Rudy Biscocho can handle this event as the RD/RO. ABS-CBN Foundation can handle the marketing and other matters not related to the operations & technical matters of the road race. Remember, ABS-CBN is new in Running!
Well, i hope the City of Angels Half-Marathon will not see the PIM’s Logo.
