Well … the money goes to charity and not to you but isn’t that even better!
Straight from the Inbox: Here is an excerpt from the Nike Press release …
“This year’s run is elevated to a greater cause as it partners with Gawad Kalinga’s ‘Walang Iwanan’ program that will provide relief and clean-up work for the nine GK sites ravaged by typhoon Ketsana. Nike Philippines will be donating 10 PHP for every kilometer ran by a Nike+ Sportband user who joins the Nike+ Human Race Ambassadors Challenge at NikeRunning.com. On October 24, every finisher of the Nike+ Human Race 10K in the Subic International Marathon will automatically convert their run to a PHP 100 donation.

Team Bananarunning! We raised Php18,787.90 already for charity! Let’s keep racking up the miles. Eek! I’m supposed to be tapering but this is for a good cause! Will run later!

Hi Bards. I wish more U.S. races would have this concept. Sometimes, I wonder where part of our entry fee is going to.
Take care. Are you running Subic this weekend? I’m running my first marathon in 18 months on Sunday!
Thanks wayne and goodluck on your comeback marathon. looking forward to read about it in your blog.
I will be in Subic but will only join the 10K race. then will support mesh who is crazy enough to do another full. haha
