Beats and treats til sunrise
Me and physical exercise never seem to co-exist since I found it a struggle to keep my weight up but I realized that working out doesn’t mean losing weight – it means being healthy and strong. So I decided to give this one a go! There’s something about this run that got me all excited – the beats!
Rexona Run To Your Beat
Imagine tunnels with sounds on full blast plus visuals to match! So happy to finally be part of one of the most sought-after runs in the calendar, the Rexona Run To Your Beat 2014.
In Mall of Asia
It’s the first ever run I joined and I love how it’s powered by music. Rexona has chosen to collaborate with the Republiq group and the top DJs in the Philippines to fuel your run with live music. Pushing runners to the finish line were DJs Ace Ramos, Mars Miranda, Deuce Manila, Martin Pulgar, Euric, Motherbasss, and MC Pao.
In partnership with Coach Rio
This run is in partnership with Run Rio. To prepare for the run, Coach Rio conducted several running clinics to make sure no one gets injured. Haha it was indeed a huge success!
Conquered: 5km run!
Rexona introduced three new tunnels with varying themes that will make the music come to life. At key points during the race, runners will be able to experience the Retro, HipHop and EDM themed tunnels that will have different features, from roller bladders to disco balls, street art to laser light. But of course, only those who can do more can enjoy all three tunnels. 5K and 10k runners will go through two tunnels, while 21k runners will be able to experience all three!
with my running buddy, McCoy Reyes
McCoy and I did the 5km run so we sadly only experienced 2 out of 3 tunnels but it was a great experience nonetheless! We enjoyed treats from Gatorade, Clear, Ponds, Cornetto and more after the run.
Cooling down
After the run, Rexona conducted raffle games and more amazing music to keep the party til dawn. There was even a surprise proposal on stage! It was nice to see so many people attend the event, it only goes to show how we are being more health-conscious now or maybe just want a good time.
