The 11th Fit & Fun Wellness Buddy Run kicked off at the parade grounds of Camp Aguinaldo in Quezon City with different types of running pairs—parents and kids, siblings, lolos and their apos, loved ones, officemates, best friends, even neighbors—competing in the 5K and 10K races.
“We are happy to provide an opportunity for people to start their wellness journey in a fun and one-of-a-kind event with their partners. After all, getting fit and choosing the healthier lifestyle is more worthwhile when shared with a buddy,” said Jody Gadia, Robinsons Supermarket general manager.
Even it’s raining, some of the participants still run with their running dogs, as long as they are trained to avoid problems since running with untrained dogs can cause common dog bite injuries to you or others. Others remained near the stage and enjoyed fun exercises conducted by well-loved coaches Jim and Toni Saret.
After crossing the finish line with their buddies and celebrating fitness in a fun and exciting way, most of the participants also enjoyed exciting activity booths and took home big grocery loot bags that have been the trademark of the Fit & Fun Wellness Buddy Run through the years.
Everyone received a bag of groceries. The loot bags contained lots of freebies from Nestle, Johnson & Johnson, Wyeth Nutrition, Abbott Nutrition, Fonterra and Unilab.
The 11th Fit & Fun Wellness Buddy Run was also joined by famous personalities including Drew Arellano, Mikael Daez and Jessie Mendiolla.
