Globe Run For Home 2012 this March 25, 2012
Get Ready for another big Marathon Event in Cebu by Globe.
All roads lead to the Queen City of the South as Cebu becomes the official home of this
year’s Globe Run4Home, one of the biggest and most awaited running events in the country
with the many innovations it pioneered in Philippine marathon history.
The Globe Run4Home 2012 races to the Cebu International Convention Center on
March 25, 2012 gathering not only the running community of Cebu, but also its legion of running
aficionados in Manila and key cities nationwide to celebrate a common cause: help provide
sustainable shelter to those in need, especially victims of Typhoon Sendong.
Globe taps previous Run4Home beneficiaries Gawad Kalinga and Habitat for Humanity
Philippines to help raise funds for their housing development projects for the typhoon victims
in Iligan and Cagayan de Oro respectively. Completing the roster of partner-beneficiaries
are Cebu Biodiversity Conservation Foundation, a Cebu-based organization that aims to
transform communities in key biodiversity areas into becoming more effective stewards of the
environment, and the Philippine Tarsier Foundation, a non-stock, non-profit organization that
spearheads a massive campaign to save the Philippine Tarsier and preserve its habitat.
Registration fees per category are
P300 = 3K
P400 = 5K
P500 = 10K
P600 = 15K
P700 = 21K
The most affordable registration rate ever in Globe Run4Home history,
making the running event more accessible to the growing running community, especially in
Cebu. The registration fee entitles runners to their race shirts available in various sizes, race
bib number, timing chip, and finisher’s medal for the 21K category. A portion of the runners’
registration fees will be donated to their beneficiary of choice to support their respective
advocacies and programs.
In order to attract more participants, group runners are also encouraged to join—with a
special treat. For groups of four running in the same category, they will be allowed to bring in a
fifth member for free.
Join the Globe Run4Home 2012 and be part of a nationwide revolution towards inspiring
hope for the less privileged families, communities, endangered species, and key biodiversity
areas. Registration starts on February 1, 2012 via www.globe.com.ph/run or at the Paseo de
Ciudad, 1st level, Ayala Center, Cebu City. Globe Run4Home 2012 is supported by Alaska,
Gatorade, Summit Natural Drinking Water, and Timex. Media partners are the Philippine Daily
Inquirer, The Philippine Star, Cebu Daily News and Newsbytes.
