34th Milo Marathon Advisory

For the warriors of the road who will run at the 34th Milo Eliminations this Sunday, may you be running the full marathon or half or 10k or 5k and even 3k, whether you’re  doing it for the first time or to break your PR, to qualify for the finals,  to support this worthy cause, or for just plain fun, we wish you  all the best.

Just got in from my inbox requesting us to post this latest advisory:

In line with the thrust of MILO® Phils. to continually raise the standards of road races and provide all runners with an exceptional running experience, we would like to issue this advisory in connection with the staging of the 34^th National MILO® Marathon on Sunday, July 4, 2010:

• All unregistered runners or “bandit runners” will not be allowed to run along the designated race course throughout the duration of the race. The same will also apply for pacers of registered runners who have not officially registered as participants.
• Except for sanctioned lead/trailing automobiles no other vehicles (to serve as pacer or support or otherwise to a particular participant) will be allowed on and along the race course throughout the race.
• Aid stations other than the designated aid/hydration stations will be allowed set-up along the race course provided assistance will be open to ALL REGISTERED PARTICIPANTS and do not pose any form of obstruction to the runners.

We will deploy a round-the-clock roving race support team to monitor the observance of these vital race policies. We are hoping for the full support of the running community.
