Over a dozen strong and growing daily, run365ph is a collective of creative heads with a passion for running and aims for a healthier lifestyle. We meet every morning to run and support each member of the family in reaching their goal, to run fast and run strong. Run365ph is growing rapidly and we want to send you guys some guidelines for the benefit of the group. WE ARE NOT A RUNNING CLUB
If you
are looking for a ‘running club’ then run365ph is not for you. We are family first and foremost and are committed to building a positive and encouraging community of creative people who enjoy running and the change it can bring. We would like to ask all of our runners to be able to run at least 4kms comfortably before joining us. MEMBERSHIP
Membership is by invitation only and is subjected for approval. Core Members are allowed to invite people to join the crew as long as they will be responsible in facilitating the run of the invited guest. A minimum of 4-5 runs a week for a month qualifies you as a new member. Weekend warriors are welcome but will be considered guest runners until they complete a 20 run cycle. RUNNING GROUPS (optional)
Let's set a goal for 3 groups. Group1 the newbies 4-5k, Group2 5-8k, group3 8k++ we can all start same time. Then one by one groups will rest when they reach their goal the rest will continue and will start picking up the pace. What you think? LEAVE YOUR EGO AT HOME
If your main concern is how fast you can go then please refrain from attending our sessions. There is no place for "macho guys" within run365ph. Those that refuse to abide will be barred from attending. We pride ourselves on our 100 percent accident and incident free record. There is a reason why we are called a crew and not a club. Crew means we look out for each other. You do not get brownie points for getting to the traffic lights first. For those of you unsure as to which group you belong in please read the group descriptions. Please note: Although we are open to runners of all levels we ask people to be able to run for at least 40 mins before attending. SESSION TIMES
We recommend that you arrive by 5:30am to allow for changing and bathroom visits. We meet early to allow people to interact and soak up the vibe. Run commences around 6am. COME DRESSED TO RUN! We don't have changing facilities, unless you want to use Palma Hall's restrooms, so we encourage people to attend dressed and ready to run. There is no area for valuables to be left but you can always ask a crew member if you can leave them in their car even if it's your bike. INTRODUCE YOURSELF TO SOMEONE YOU DO NOT KNOW
For safety and social reasons please ensure that you introduce yourself to everyone in your group. We are not a faceless crew and if anything were to happen to you on a run your fellow group members should be able to tell the emergency authorities your name. They cannot do this if you insist on coming down and keeping yourself to yourself. If you see someone looking lost then please make them feel at home, a smile and a kind word can go a long way in making someone feel welcome. GROUP ETIQUETTE
Please respect your group leaders by ensuring you keep within the front and back pacers. More importantly please notify them if you decide to jump up or down a group mid run so we do not waste time looking for you when you go AWOL. If you insist on running in front of your group leader then please volunteer to lead the group the following week or step up to the back of the next group. Persistent rule breakers will be advised of other running clubs perhaps more suited to them. MUSIC
For safety and social reasons, the use of MP3 players and headphones is banned. RUN EVERYDAY. Our goal is to 'Run Fast. Run Strong Coz we Wana eat the Lechon'. We are goal focused and committed to being the best we can be. Therefore we do expect and encourage our members to commit to regular training and attendance. Our motto is ‘Run Everyday’. We schedule/designate facilitators everyday to run with new and old members who wish to run any day of the week. GIVE BACK
There are hundreds of running clubs you could run with, but you have chosen to run with us. Run365ph is not a sponge. Please replace what you take from the project. In other words, please give back however you can be it through time, energy or however else you see fit. This will ensure the continued success of the the family we call run365ph. We will soon launch the campaign run.365.ph to promote our running advocacy and promote running to everybody. Run Everyday.
