Hyundai Run for a Cause

I officially love running!

Last Saturday, Erick and I joined a run sponsored by Hyundai. What’s so unique about this run? It’s free! We didn’t spend a single centavo for the registration fee and we got free race packs – singlet, race bib, timing chip, tote bag.

All set for the run
Since it was free, we weren’t expecting much for this running event. But we were surprised that it was very organized. It was very convenient for all the runners who joined. The event started on time. There were enough baggage counters and the portalets were strategically located. There were marshals all throughout the run (every 1 meter I should say!) and a number of ambulances on stand by and. A free bottled water was given during the race instead of plastic cups which was good. And yeah, there was a even a car show with Hyundai's latest car models.

Come y'all runners

Free H2O from Hyundai
Another great thing about this run is the division or runners according to waves (groups). Each wave started with 10 minutes time difference in between. It provided ample space for every runner.

This was my first 10k run and thank you Hyundai for making it a very good one! I finished  the race in 1:24:15 seconds  and Erick was way ahead of me at 01:03:36 seconds.
