As millions of people from around the world joined the celebration of Earth Hour this year, the World Wide Fund for Nature – Philippines (WWF-PH) launched the second run of the Earth Hour Virtual Run, continuing its partnership with Pinoy Fitness.
EHVR supports Earth Hour’s goal of making 2023 a year of change to reach the 2030 nature-positive goal. Earth Hour hopes to inspire and support people to do something positive for the planet; every individual can make a change. This commitment and solidarity should not end in the hour itself but should continue even in their individual daily routines and shaping their actions.
Pinoy Fitness CEO Jeff Lo highlights “It brings me great joy to witness the fitness community taking actual steps towards playing a more active part in promoting environmental conservation through their involvement in this year’s Earth Hour Virtual Run. And as a platform, I am really proud of being the event’s partner.”
Joining a community of over 3,000 fitness and environmental conservation enthusiasts are Booth and Partners, EPSON, QBE, and Sun Life Foundation. The run, which will support the organization’s environmental conservation efforts across the country, will commence virtually from March 25 until April 30. Registration ends on April 9.
Runners who will successfully complete 5K, 10K, 20K, 40K or 60K cumulative distance will receive their finishers’ kit which includes commemorative medals, shirts and caps, plus a chance to win exciting prizes from EHVR raffle partners: a hotel staycation from The Bellevue Manila, The Bellevue Resort Bohol, B Hotel Quezon City, Sheraton Manila Bay and Red Planet Hotels; gift certificates and activewear from Rustan’s and Rustan’s Activewear; gift certificates from SM Cares; limited-edition reusable masks from the WWF x Jim Weaver Designs Wildlife Collection; Spinhawk eyewear from Rudy Project; reusable totes and shirts from WWF x Teetalk Change the Ending; and healthy treats from SaladStop!
WWF-Philippines ambassadors Marc Nelson, Rovilson Fernandez, Enzo Pineda and Mikee Cojuangco-Jaworski have confirmed to join the run. Will you join the run with them?
