Over 1,500 runners gathered at People’s Park early morning of April 8 as NCCC Supermarket and Whisper Philippines joined hands for Pink Run 2018. It is a fun run event which aimed to foster fitness, health and wellness among Davao City shoppers.
With emphasis on the wellness revolution common among all age groups, Pink Run had 3 race categories and winners were divided into Male and Female.
“The race is OPEN to all”, said Janna Mutalib, Head of Branding and Events at NCCC Supermarket. “Despite Whisper, being a feminine hygiene product, we also made sure that fun run is inclusive so as to encourage everyone that fitness is for all”, she added.
