Crocs’ Prepare to Run!

Posted By abee on 09.30.2009 • (0)

More than three thousand people braved the strong rains and winds in the Mall of Asia on September 13, 2009 to join Crocs' Prepare to Run!  The Limjucos had very generously offered to make WE International Philippines and official beneficiary of the run, and despite WE International Philippines' worries about the day's less-than-perfect weather, the people came - determined, it seemed, to make the Crocs Run a success in further helping the Smokey Mountain community.

By 5:00am, participants were signed-up and ready for their 3K, 5K and 10K runs and at exactly 6am, the 10K runners took their leave, followed shortly by the 5K and 3K runners.

The energy - not only of the running participants, but of the spectators and supporters as well -  was contagious and uplifting.  There were runners of all ages, and running groups comprised of work-colleagues, friends and families, some with very young kids!  It was a truly enjoyable event that helped raise P50,000.00 for WE's developmental projects for the Smokey Mountain community.
