The founder/organizer of Laban ng Lahi said, “Yung pagkakawatak-watak ng mga Filipino, kung nadun tayo sa ibang bansa may grupo ng Caviteño, Ilonggo, may Bisaya, hindi nagkakaisa ang mga Filipino. So dito naman sa atin lagi nagmamayabang ang mga Ilonggo magagaling, ang mga Bisaya hindi rin naman magpapatalo, so since may ganito tayo na sort of tradition o kultura ginawa ko itong isang sports. Kailangan natin ipagalaban ang lahi natin, so kung ikaw naman ay Pampangeño, kung sino mang taga-Pampanga dyan kailang ninyong itaas ang bandera ng Pampanga.”

Laban ng Lahi is a Platoon Run competition wherein each platoon will represent a province of the Philippines. An advocacy or corporate group may join (representing one company on that area).• No age limit and and members from another place may join. (Read the mechanics below)
