My 2nd Event - Immuvit's Run Against Time - Greenhills Shopping Center

This event was really a "Run Against Time". We only had a few hours to do the set up. Ingress started at 12:00MN and event starts at 4:30AM. So we really have to chop chop things up, and turn our lazy asses notches higher. Caffeine... caffeine... caffeine!!!! 


We had a lot of learnings from our 1st event in Bonicafio High Street, and as good learners we applied all that we can to the 2nd leg of Immuvit's Run Against Time. Kung isa isahin ko... e  kulang ang entry na ito, kase madami kaming kapalpakan. Anyway there is really no perfect event, things does not always fall into plan. 

This event is a Sunday morning event that is really different from the Saturday night event that we did before. Obviously runners, health enthusiasts etc.... prefer waking up really early to do their workout when the sun is not to high and hot. The number of participants almost doubled, and the number of pre-registered attendees had a 60% attendance rate. So hello to morning RAT events from now on. 

The funnest part of the event was when the run was taking place. Me and my project mates needed to hand colored indicator bands to the the runners. 1 Greenhills round is 1 Km and is 1 Lap. 1 Lap is one colored indicator band.
1st lap - red
2nd lap - white
3rd lap - black
4th lap - blue
5th lap - pink

Run Route 

Fun chasing the panting runners and giving them the indicator bands, and fooling aroudn with each other like kids. After the run, breakfast was served and followed by the most awaited Jim Saret's "Somatopause" lecture. This leg Immuvit gave away a Polar RS - 100 running watch as the grand raffle prize.

The 2nd Immuvit's Run Against Time - Greenhills Shopping Center

Hello guys! September 26 - 4:30 am will be the 2nd run of the Immuvit's Run Against Time. If you missed out on the 1st event at the Bonifacio High Street last month. This is the time to make bawi and learn about "Somatopause" and how to go against it. 


"While GSC has long been known as one of the country’s top bargain shopping destinations, it is also an ideal place for fitness enthusiasts living in surrounding subdivisions and condominiums.  GSC has, in fact, its own community of fitness buffs who use the venue to engage in their workout regimen."

 The event will be at the Greenhills Shopping Center in San Juan, Metro Manila.

At the same time this is the 2nd event that me and my project manager Jam will be organizing from nothing to something.

Immuvit's Run Against Time - 1st Event I've Done - 8-21-2010

Immuvit's Run Against Time was the 1st event I've done from production to implementation. Training from E-games Philippines really paid off, I remember going around the Philippines as the Product manager of Audition Dance Battle Philippine - the 1st dance online game in the country, to promote and sell the game. 

 A2 Na! - Countdown to Season 2 the 2nd biggest event I've done with Audition Dance Battle

Together with a the E-games marketing team, we will conceptualize a campaign and tie up on ground and in game components to it. The marketing team will do the on ground activation and our team will do the in game activation. 

Here in my 2nd job, the task was assigned to me and I accepted it as a challenge and a chance to explore other things that I can do and might enjoy. I've always loved events and I think I am inclined to do them because I am very demanding and masungit to get things accomplished (people in events would understand what I mean).


With just 2 weeks to organize the event, I proclaimed my self a magician. Well we have to rush everything - budget, permits, suppliers, manpower, program etc... 

Immuvit's Run Against Time is a fitness clinic that is tied up with a lecture and a fun run. Coach Jim Saret - US certified coach did the lecture regarding Sumatopause and how Immuvit can help you cope up with it. 

Immuvit is the only multivitamin in the market that contains the powerful combination of CoQ10 and two ginsengs—Korean RPC and Siberian ginseng. 

"Basically, somatopause is the weight gain and metabolism slowdown stage that typically happens when you hit 30 and above. It's going to happen, whether we like it or not," explained Saret, who is also the speed and conditioning coach of the RP SMART Gilas national basketball team.

Coach Jim Saret

"Discovering the Fountain of Youth: How to Age Younger”, and he shared his knowledge regarding somatopause, stuff about fitness, and what it really means to defy aging.

The highlight of Saret's talk was the demonstration of his exercise program to combat aging: Meta Fit and the fun run followed.

 1 - 2 - 3  Run!!!! - See you at the finish line! 

Having organized this small event was a learnign experience for me, I learned na "Kaya ko pala...." Hehehe. Just be goal oriented and mag sungit ka lng and you'll get things done. But honestly I can see myself doing alot of activation events more in the near future. 

The 1st 100 registrants for this event got free Immuvit's Run Against Time singlets and loot bags. There will be 3 more Immuvit's Run Against Time events in the following dates:

September 26, 2010 - Greenhills Shopping Center
October, 2010 - UP
November 2010 - Mall of Asia
