January 17, 2016
It’s that time of year again that we can get excited for RUN 2016!
After the successful Run 800 in 2013, Run 1000 in 2014 and Run 1500 in 2015, 7-Eleven will be holding Run 2016 this coming January 17, 2016.
Run 2016 once again will bring a massive and exciting marathon to every one of all ages, featuring the same categories as last year’s race. 7-Eleven is once again partnering with Skyway and Filinvest City as its official event venue.
Get ready for a full blast marathon!
Race categories will include 42KM, 21KM, 10KM, 16KM, 10KM, 10KM Buddy, 5KM, 3KM and 500 Meter (Kids’ run).
Runners joining the 10KM, 16KM, 21KM, 42KM categories and 10KM Buddy Run will enjoy the course set along the Skyway. Those joining the 500M, 3KM and 5KM categories can look forward to an organized race course along Filinvest City.
Run 2016 is made possible with 7-Eleven’s unique system of SELF-SELECTED WAVE STARTS. This enables the participants to choose their wave start and run with people with the same skill or speed (or with friends!).
Top 3 per category will receive cash prizes and medals. Top 3 Filipino males and females in the 21KM and 42KM categories will be sponsored by 7-Eleven to join an international marathon in Asia. And to encourage more participants for this run, Top 3 groups (schools and companies or organizations) with the highest number of registrants will also receive a special trophy.
Registration is now open! You may register online at www.run711.com until December 30, 2015. Race Kits can be claimed on the date indicated on the receipt, and from the same store where payment has been made.
Register with your family and friends now! See poster for the complete details of the run.
