Run United II 2013
This day marked a special period of the evolution of the Road Eaters Running Club with the launching of the official club singlet, designed by their very own Jemai. The singlets have white, blue and red colors and features the club logo in front and the member's name at the back.
The 21K and 32K Road Eaters
The 10K Road Eaters
The RU2 experience was definitely awesome wearing the attire that represents the club. Anyone who wears it could stand-out from the rest. Some runners caught the attention of the Road Eaters wearing RERC singlets within the sea of dark-colored RU2 singlets. They would say to themselves, "Whoa! Who the heck are those running in white, blue and red singlets?" or others would say, "Those singlets look so cool. Maybe I should join their club!" Maybe that was one reason why the club was featured in the Unilab Facebook page after the race and lots got interested to join the club for the first time.
For the Road Eaters, it was easy to find their lost running buddies. On the other hand, sending cheers to their co-Road Eaters wearing the official club singlets even on the other side of the road granted an exhilarating feeling and made them proud that they would want to experience it in an unlimited fashion.

Hooray! Make way for another history! First-time 32K runners who braved the race wearing the RERC singlets were Josh, Jemai, BJ and Kevin.

Run United I 2013
In almost 7 months of operation, the Road Eaters Running Club hit a total of 30 members with 25 of them (the highest so far) able to join the much-awaited Run United I 2013 – to start completing the popular RU race series.
New members include: Sam, Pau,
Two vans were needed to bring the Road Eaters to the Mall of Asia grounds. An unexpected delay happened, but fortunately, the club had competitive half-marathon Road Eaters who could outrun the others. Eya was also with them, for her new level race.
To start the running season, a lot of changes were noted: The routes were slightly new, the singlets were improved for better comfort, and unlimited bananas and Gatorade were made available.
Lootbags contained a towel, sun visor, small can of century tuna and some sample products from Unilab.
What’s more, the half-marathoners would surely await the next 2 RU races to complete their unique finisher’s tokens.

And Hey! What's this?! Bromance?!
Off to Chicboy!
The lucky GC recipient: Ang nandudumilat na si Jeff.

Run United Philippine Marathon 2012
The Road Eaters together with 12,000 estimated number of running enthusiasts became part of history as race organizer Runrio and Unilab Active Health launched its first-ever marathon in promoting nationalism through sportsmanship.
Almost late for the 21K gunstart, the Road Eaters hurried at the starting line. That was the first run without any warm up. New members Carol (who was previously an Elite Runners' buddy) and athletic Arjay joined the Road Eaters Running Club for the first time on their first 21K run.
Where else could they find finishing a marathon in an exclusive red carpet finish line under an exclusive finish arc with colorful balloons while cow bells ring and marching bands, video/photo shots and other surprises await? (what a mouthful!). The Road Eaters didn't see those stuffs. Those were for the 42K runners only! Toinks!
Here's something to be proud of: What the club offered in this marathon is its blasting 10K and 21K runners.
Oh c'mon, RUPM is just a practice game. Soon, they'll eat that 42K road. More than that. And maybe a grand circus parade will await them. Teehee!
To finish the race carrying miniature Philippine flags and wearing the symbolic singlets in blue, red and white was definitely patriotic. Definitely the colors of the Road Eaters Running Club.
Off to Army Navy Burger & Burrito!
