BORNE RUNNER SPORTS: Family Fun Run 2012

“ I consider my life worth nothing to me if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace. - Acts 20:24 -

The Asian Hope Christian Academy Inc (AHCA) had their annual family day. A time to fellowship with parents, teachers, and the students. The main purpose of the event is to develop camaraderie between parents,teachers and students and of course have fun.

Ptr Pabilonia, Director of AHCA,mentioned the desire of school to support and help the less privileged students of Sampaloc, Tanay, Rizal in sending them to school especially the children of Pastors who are given 100% free scholarship. Thus, the school has difficulty sustaining the scholarship program and raising fund is one of the challenge of the school management. Upon hearing the situation of the school I offered my service as an organizer of running events which I believe is one option to raise funds for the scholars.

It is our company's commitment, the Borne Runner Sports Travel and Tours to assist organizations, communities, institutions and other groups in raising funds for community service in order to support such cause.

In sharing of the desire of both parties we came to an agreement of conducting a fun run for scholars, we call it the FAMILY FUN RUN 2012, the event will be jive or part of the AHCA Family day. This event will be done annually as part of the family day promoting fitness, fun, and run for scholars. Of course,in partnership of the 43rd Light Armor ( Maneuver) Company (43LAC) and the Borne Runners under the leadership of CPT ARIEL U CORTEZ (CAV) PA are the personnel/ man power behind the event.

The Family Fun Run 2012 was planned very well with all the staff and concern personnel to handle every single task. The event was also posted in Takbo.ph in order to promote outside Rizal province that resulted to more than 500 registered runners and guest runners from 2ID (Army). The event were participated by BJMP-CALABARZON, BFP-Tanay, PNP- Tanay, DEP ED- Upper Tanay, 2ID (Army), Moreh Academy- Taguig, Asian Hope Christian Academy, running groups from Antipolo, Cogeo, Binangonan, Cardona, Tanay, Calamba, individual running enthusiast.

On November 3, 2012, the Family Fun Run 2012 started by an opening prayer of Ptr Fotunato L Enso, Mt Olive Assembly of God, and the welcome remarks of the AHCA Director, Ptr Miguelito Pabilonia, and of course the most awaited gun start by the Race Director, CPT ARIEL U CORTEZ, with the 7Km runners first followed by 3Km runners. This fun run distinct from other running events that is the family category. Family category composed of father, mother, and at least one Child ranging from 13 years old below. The first complete family to cross the finish line was declared as the winner. The Family Fun Run 2012 promotes fitness, run for scholars, and most especially the unity of a family.
