SUNPIOLOGY Evolves into a Bike-Run Event
Sun Life Financial Philippines, known to advocate financial
literacy and most importantly health-awareness among its clients is organizing annual
fun run. This highly-anticipated event is different from its usual activities
as the fun run will cater to both running and cycling enthusiasts, as it
evolves into a two-fold event dubbed Sunpiology Duo.
Biking and
running is the trend nowadays and the #SunpiologyDUO will come in
two parts which is Sun Life Cycle PH @BGC and Sun Life Resolution Run.
To take place on November
18, 2017, the Sun Life Cycle PH will be held at the Bonifacio Global City in
Taguig. They will be mounting the event in partnership with Sunrise Events,
Inc., which is known for its flagship projects that focus on race organization
and sports tourism. Recently, the contract signing between the two companies
was held in Shangri-La Mactan in Cebu, headed by the Sun Life CEO and Country
Head Riza Mantaring, Sun Life brand ambassador Piolo Pascual, Sunrise Founder
Wilfred Uytengsu, and Sunrise General Manager Princess Galura in attendance.
“We recognize
cycling’s growing popularity in the Philippines, and this is our share in
helping encourage more people to get into the sport,” Sun Life Chief Marketing
Officer Mylene Lopa said. “Just as it is in our fun run, Sun Life Cycle PH will
cater to different ages and will offer different categories.”
Sun Life Cycle PH will have a total of seven categories:
Tricycle Ride (100 meters for 2-3 year olds), Kids’ Ride (500 meters for 4-5
year olds), Family Ride (30 minutes for 6-15 year olds with adult companion),
Solo Ride (30 minutes for 6-15 years old), Short Distance Ride (20km for 10
years old and above), and Long Distance Ride (40km for 10 years old and above).
A charity category called Bid2Bike will encourage the fans of Piolo Pascual,
Matteo Guidicelli, Inigo Pascual, Gerald Anderson, and other Star Magic celebrities,
to bid for a chance to bike alongside their idols, an exclusive photo souvenir,
and have their jersey signed. For cycling enthusiasts, they can bid to ride
with legend Robbie McEwen
On January 20, 2018, the Sun Life Resolution Run will take place.
As with the previous years, Sun Life will once again mount the event with Run
Rio and will offer 3k, 5k, and 10k categories. It features an obstacle course
that illustrates the steps to prevent diabetes, like watching what you eat and
why exercise is important. For those who are interested, more details will be
revealed in the coming months such as the addition of an expanded payment
facility like PayPal and DragonPay.
