CLARK FREEPORT -- At least 3,300 runners have registered in the Clark Animo Run 7 of Dela Salle Alumni Association (DLSAA) Pampanga Chapter set in this Freeport Monday, March 7.

Rafael Angeles, DLSAA president, said that this year’s event is the biggest since 2009.

“This is the first that we will be having the biggest participation of running enthusiasts in the Animo Run, and we are happy in the turnout of participants who are very supportive,” Angeles said.

Angeles said that Clark Animo Run 7 include categories 5-kilometer, 10-kilometer, 21-kilometer and the full marathon, which is a 42-kilometer run.

He said the 42-k category was included a year ago to make it more challenging for the runners.

This years’ sports activity will feature the route leading to the Clark International Airport (CRK) passenger terminal building where the participants will have a chance to see the airport’s facilities.

“This is also the first time that we included the Clark Airport route as part of our support to the Clark International Airport Corporation (CIAC) promotion for the Clark Airport,” he said.

“And we the DLSAA Pampanga Chapter would like to take this opportunity to thank CIAC President and CEO Emigdio Tanjuatco III for the full support to our activity,” Angeles said.

Angeles also thanked CIAC vice president for Business and Development Group Darwin Cunanan for the support.

Proceeds in the event will go the Angeles City Watershed as part of their project dubbed as “Green Run for a Cause,” said Angeles.

There are several prizes for each categories, Angeles said.
