Runners Etiquette
1. Don't suddenly stop and take a "Selfie".
We know it's a fun run and you want to make it extra memorable by taking a few snaps,
but if you must take a "selfie" just be mindful of the runners behind you and don't suddenly
stop or at least move to the side of the road before you take your pictures.

2. Practice discipline, especially in taking care of your trash.

We know it's a race and you want to drink as fast as you can and ditch that cup of water.
That's OK, organizers normally clean them up after the race, but as much as possible throw
empty cups in the garbage bins provided or at least near the hydration stations, not
somewhere in-between hydration station 1 and 2.

3. Observe proper Hygiene

In short, Don't Spit.

4. Warn before passing someone

When passing someone, give them a warning, say "Passing Through" or something similar,
say "Thanks" afterwards.

5. Give respect to ALL runners.
Fast or Slow. Remember, every one of us started from zero. Don't pull anyone down, give
an encouraging word instead, "Kaya mo yan" or "Keep going" should work pretty well.

6. It's human to Walk.

Everyone gets tired, but if you must walk or stop to take some time to rest, don't do it
suddenly, slowly pace down and if possible move to the side of the race course.

7. Wave and Give a Cheer

Though some runners prefer to zone out during a run to focus on themselves, others feel
energized when seeing a wave or hearing a cheer, try it and let's all promote a sense of
camaraderie.

8. Don't forget to Have Fun!

After all, we all do this for the love of running and fitness. PR or not don't forget to smile and
enjoy every race.
