HOW TO BE A TAKBO.PH MEMBER…
Takbo.ph is not a running club. We are an online community that gathers runners and would-be runners to share the same passion. We are open to anyone who just love to run. No membership forms. No membership fees. Just register at the forums and join the discussions. That’s it and you are part of the running community.
Connect with us and follow us at our social media accounts:
We do meet during and after races. Some members organize group runs, meet-ups and gatherings. You are free to join. Just check the forums for the next schedule.
Or look for the Takbo.ph banner during races and pose with us for a “class picture” at the finish line. Don’t be shy to approach us and to introduce yourself.
So joining us is pretty simple. And running is really fun.

ang schedule po ng work ko is nightshift ok lang po ba tumakbo kahit puyat at wala kang tulog?
just a piece of comment for all of the event organizers that they should be aware of the safety and needs of the participants like water station, direction markings, road maps, traffic access , marshalls, portalets , its so kindda frustrating if even just a 90% of the above was not met..
