Energizer Night Run 2015: How far can you go to lighten up the life of a poor child?

Energizer Night Run 2015 is a run for a cause organized by Energizer to benefit the medical needs of indigent children under the Bantay Bata 163 Foundation. This year, the night run will have a different kind of twist. It will be an open run that will allow runners to push themselves a little further to run as far as they can within a three kilometer loop in 2 hours of run time. 

A P700 registration will cover all distances. Runners can run for 3k or more, depending on his or her capacity. For every 3k loop a runner makes, Energizer will give additional donation to Bantay Bata 163. This running event will hope to raise more than P1 Million donation to fund the medical needs of children in critical conditions. 

The running event will be held at Alabang’s popular running circuit, the scenic and nature-inspired Filinvest. The event will start at 5:00pm on June 27, 2015 and more than 3,000 runners are expected to join. This run for a cause are catered not only for beginners but also to the seasoned runners like me who has the capacity to run much longer distances within two hours. 

Another special feature of this run is that, there will be no podium winners and all who will participate will be recognized as champions.  According to Mr. Vincent Lizo, Energizer Philippines’ Business Director, the first open run bears truth that no competition is needed if we want to help improve the lives of children. "Being generous is all about benefiting others more than yourself”, Lizo said. “For its part, Energizer, as a company, will recognize every runner of this event as a winner since no medal nor any form of special recognitions are needed to fulfill our responsibilities to the community," added Lizo.

Registration includes both online and through official registration sites Reebok Filinvest, Trinoma and Megamall, RUNNR BGC and Royal Sporting House Glorietta.  Online registration and details of event are through Energizer’s official website at www.energizer.com.ph,  www.Facebook.com/EnergizerPH, and race partner www.pepsquadevents.com.
