Running events, competitions and marathons are here to stay, and also fun run that supports advocacy or campaign, others running events is to test your endurance and mind set, here at the Rogin E Last Man Running set to launch on March 24 at Bonifacio Global City, it is a different running competition, after your finish the race there will be another round of race for you to finish and that’s your mission, complete one round and go for another round, it sound a difficult mechanics, but I’m glad that they mention the +rounds and this will never surprise them after they finish the 1st lap of the race. But it will be better if they surprise them for another 10 more laps ahhaha, but that’s overkill and searching for the last man running is difficult and this running race is for experienced and pro runners only, if you want to try and you are a beginner, you need to train hard and do practice and start on a shorter race distance and then if you are ready, go for the pro level race, I’m sure there will be another round for next year, but for this year’s race it will be a tough one, because last year’s winner Alquin Bolivar, will return back for this year’s Rogin E Last Man Running and he will battle head to head again with other runners and complete the seven hour race in the roads and street of Bonifacio Global City.

At no time during the run are LMR runners allowed to stop, except for the following cases: lavatory break, to hyrdrate at hydration stations, to eat at carboloading stations, sponge bath, or to fix running gear. They MUST rejoin the RUNNING GROUP and maintain the current nominated pace. Any other reason for stopping will subject the LMR contender to disqualification.
LMR Runners may withdraw from the race at any time during the 7-hour period. Upon withdrawal, all colored strings given during his/her participation in the run will be collected by the nearest race marshal. Likewise, all runners who were swept off by race marshals must surrender their strings.
The organizers of LMR and its appointed race officials reserve the right to declare any LMR contender unfit to continue with the run upon recommendation of the race medical team.
There will be water aid stations every 2kms. along the race route.

Carboloading stations, located 5kms. apart will open after the third hour of the race.
Cold sponge stations will be available after the fifth hour.
Portalets will be stationed along the race course.
At exactly 7 hours after gun start, all race marshals will simultaneously blow their whistles to signal the end of the endurance race. All participants of LMR who are still in competition will be assisted right away by the most proximate race marshal. His/her race bib number and exact location (from the nearest distance marker) will then be recorded and subsequently submitted to the chief race judge to determine LMR and LWR winners.
The Last Man Running will be awarded a trip to Beijing, China and entry to the Great Wall Marathon worth P150,000. The Last Woman Running will receive a cash award of P20,000.
