My Experience at 8th Robinsons' Fit and Fun Wellness Buddy Run

8th Robinsons' Fit and Fun Wellness Buddy Run 7/07/2015 09:18:00 AM

It was July 5, 2015 when I first joined Robinsons’ Fit and Fun Wellness Buddy Run together with my hubby. It was the 7th Fit and Fun Wellness Buddy Run and in which I didn't actually completed the whole 5k run but finished it of course and passed the finish line.

This year, my hubby insisted that I should complete the 5K run because according to him it will be a great experience for me and I'll feel healthy. So this is it, I tried! At first, I enjoyed it but later on I felt tired already and the signage of 1k was still far. When we reached the first signage we took a photo, it was happy indeed.

I told my hubby that we should walk only, because if we run, it’ll be too tiring. My buddy (my hubby) was my boaster that day, when I am feeling tired and don’t want to continue, he would push me to move on. Until we reached the 2km, another photo op. Nearing the 3K signage, I told him that we should try to do a short cut because I’m really tired, my feet is aching, my muscles is crankng, but still he insisted, ‘til we reached the 3kms another photo op again.

Tired, sweating and feeling give up, but my buddy keep pushing me to do this. He was supposed to run but he kept his pace just to accompany me. It was a great feeling. We reached the 4kms no photo op because the poster/signage fell down because of heavy wind.

The finish line was getting nearer, I felt tired but with excitement because I will reached the finish line. And boom there we go, it was my first ever 5K fun run. Finally, I did it! I feel healthy, and yes, it was a great feeling and a great achievement for me.

Thank you so much to my buddy (my hubby) for the words of encouragement and thank you to Robinsons for letting me experience it and for the gift, the fruit of our hardship, the grocery that was given to all participants who joined the fun run.

Around 4,500 recreational runners took on the 5KM and 10KM run, including triathlete Nikko Huelgas, who recently bagged a gold medal for the sport at the 28th SEA Games. Philippine volcanoes captain Jake Letts, and celebrities James Reid and Jessy Mendiola were in attendance as well.

"While eating healthy is at the core of healthy life, we cannot discount the immutable contribution of exercise. And running is always better when done with a partner hence, the Fit and Fun Wellness Buddy Run," said Robinsons Supermarket Genral Manager Jody Gadia.

At the end of the run, top pair finishers received prizes from Robinsons Supermarket officials. 5K winners won a trip for 2 to coron, Palawan while 10K winners bagged a trip for 2 to Yangon, Myanmmar. 2nd to 5th place finishers received Robinsons Gift Certificates as consolation prizes.

Special awards from event sponsors were also given away. Outstanding pairs were awarded the following: Close-Up Couple Award, Rexona Do More Buddies, Breeze Sige Mom-child Tandem, Nestle Best Shape-Up Buddies, Milo Energy & Milo R2 Twin Buddies, and the Johnson & Johnson Active Fresh Award.

Tourism Malaysia 2015

bff campaign 6/21/2015 06:46:00 AM

With 2015 dubbed as the Year of Festivals, Tourism Malaysia – Manila is happy to welcome His Honorable Dato’ Mirza Mohammad Taiyab, Director General of Tourism Malaysia along with the rest of the Malaysia delegation comprising of State Tourism Boards, Product Owners, Hoteliers and Tour Operators, to the Philippines to meet and greet with those from the local tourism industry including local travel agents and airline companies as well as the press, as Tourism Malaysia-Manila gets ready to launch a special campaign.

The special Networking and Open Opportunity discussions were held last June 8, at Ballroom 2 of Fairmont Hotel in Makati City from 2PM, with the special launch held later at 6PM.

In his speech, His Excellency shared, “For MyFest 2015, we aim to have 29.4 million tourist arrivals and RM89 billion in tourist receipts, leading up to our ultimate goal of 36 million tourists and RM168 billion in tourist receipts by 2020. This is part of the government’s National Blue Ocean Strategy to create value innovation through public-private partnership collaboration. To that end, I would like to invite all of you to work with each other and develop new tourism products and packages that will highlight our culture, and promote it as a tourist attraction to the rest of the world.”

The event was hosted by Sam Yg. My Favorite Isabelle De Leon performed as well during the event and sung the theme song of Tourism Malaysia.

Be Friends Forever campaign

In line with the Year of Festivals 2015, with the theme, “Endless Celebrations”, BFF or Be Friends Forever very well complements the year-long campaign of the Manila office. These three letters effectively mirror the bonds that were built, the fun and adventure shared, and the lasting memories that have been created from traveling with best friends.

“We have always believed that traveling builds more than just character and life experiences. In an eventful place such as Malaysia, you can also build lasting memories, memories that you will cherish forever especially if built with close friends and family. In this endless celebrations theme lies a call for people to take these celebration with them long after they have returned home,” shares Dato’ Mirza.

For this new campaign, Tourism Malaysia would like to position itself as a best friend to a certain extent who is looking out for their visitors, who wants them to have fun, who caters well to their needs, and helps create the best memories during your travels. Likewise, the campaign would also like to imbibe the feeling that Malaysia remains to be a destination of choice for families and friends who are looking for a very enjoyable vacation. He adds, “This special campaign inspired by the Filipinos’ love affair with selfies and picture taking, focuses on not just keeping but on sharing these lasting memories captured digitally and immortalized on social media. In as much as I would love to think that all of us here are all BFF’s, I want to let all Filipinos who have at least once travelled to Malaysia know that we consider all of them and the future generations of countless Filipinos who will take time out to visit my beloved Malaysia, as our best friends forever and my hugs and kisses go out to all of them.”

And given that Tourism Malaysia ensures guests of a very enjoyable time, the BFF campaign is a great way to let others know what exactly they can expect from trip – through the experiences of those who have already been to Malaysia. The campaign encourages travellers who have been to Malaysia to post their favorite vacation photos on Facebook and Instagram using the hashtag #mybffxoxo, which also qualifies them to win special monthly prizes from Tourism Malaysia, as well as the grand prize for the promotion – a three days/two nights stay in Malaysia accompanied by his or her best friend (or family member).

With so many things lined up as well as more events and attractions being held and being put in place in this charming country, Malaysia is happy to inform Filipinos of what they can expect from their trip.

Another special Networking and Open Discussions event will be held in Cebu last June 10, at the Sampaguita Ballroom of Cebu City Marriott Hotel.
