The Media for Sports Development and e-Pub Heroes will host the Founders Run on June 29.
The 12-kilometer, 6 K, 3K and 1.5K runs will utilize the often-used route of Kisad, Military Cut Off and Loakan road and will start and ends at the Baguio athletic bowl, said race director Stephen Felices of Team Malaya.
An event with The Mountain Men Creations Co and Way Nasdi, entry fee for the shortest route or Canicross is PhP850, PhP1,050 for the 3K, PhP1,150 for the 6K, and PhP1,450 for the 12K.
Registrants are entitled to a race singlet, bib, and finisher’s medal.
Registration is now open, added Felices, and payment is through G-Cash using Smart number 0962 736 2115.
The run was supposed to be staged as early as December of last year, but delays due to other commitments of the organizers have pushed the event to its final date late next month, said Pigeon Lobien of the organizing MSD and Heroes.
The event is a fundraiser for the continuation of the Heroes mural project at the Baguio athletic bowl, particularly the Baguio Running Wall component, where past and present athletics greats are painted now.
It also hopes to support the local inter-collegiate games, the Baguio Benguet Educational Athletic League.
MSD is the organizer of the Cong. Eric Go Yap Congressional Cup Men’s Basketball League and Benguet Women’s Volleyball League.
It is composed of sports journalists covering local sporting events, including the BBEAL.
