Race Categories:  RUN United 2, the third leg of the Run Rio Trilogy is set for September 16, 2012!

Afroman distance’ or 32k category—not usually included in other run races is the much anticipated offer.

The Ceelin 500m dash, 3k, 5k, 10k, and 21k.

"This time around however, the 32k Afroman Distance is not the longest distance anymore at Run United races since we will have our first ever  Run United Philippine Marathon on October 28. So, Run United 3 can be a preparatory race for the runners. said Alex Panlilio, Head of Unilab Active Health (ULAH).

New Features & Surprises at RUN United 3!

Rio dela Cruz said that runners’ anticipation over Run United 3 will be all worth it as new features and surprises await them on September 16. There will be new routes as well as different starting and finish lines again for Run United 3, like in the previous two races.

32K & 21K Routes

  • The 32K runners will have a gun start at Bonifacio Global City (BGC) starting at 3am, an hour ahead of the 21k runners. They will be led from BGC to take their first 10k in University Parkway area, then move up to Kalayaan Flyover. Then, they will go all the way down to Buendia, take left at Roxas Boulevard, turnaround taking the roads of Vicente Sotto, Diosdado Macapagal and on to EDSA before finally turning left at Seaside Boulevard for the finish at the Mall of Asia (MOA).
  • The 21k will have an earlier gun start at 4am compared to Run United 2’s 430am. They will have the same route as the 32k runners, but instead of going to EDSA they will turn right after Macapagal Avenue, turning right at Seaside Boulevard and then all the way to the finish line in MOA.
