THE Energen Family Run will hit Mandaue City’s major streets this Sunday with a thousand runners expected to answer the starting gun at Parkmall in Mandaue City.
The race is expected to draw the attention of running buffs since it’s one of the first races to be held after Supertyphoon Yolanda (Haiyan) caused the cancellation of some runs.
The running event will feature a 10-kilometer, 5k and 3k distances. According to race director Joel Juarez, registration is ongoing at the Chris Sports in SM City Cebu and Ayala Mall.
Five brand new mountain bikes and Lenovo smart phones will be awarded to the fastest runners in each category.
Registration fee in the 10k race is pegged at P400 while 5k and 3k runners will have to pay P300 and P200, respectively. The fee is inclusive of the race shirt, map, refreshments and a loot bag from Energen.
All of the 10k finishers will receive a limited edition finisher’s shirt. Registration will end on Friday. /CORRESPONDENT DALE G. ROSAL
