AROUND a hundred fitness buffs took part in the first-ever Namaste Run of Sun Life Financial’s Go Well Community Workout Program yesterday at the Terraces of Ayala Center Cebu.
Filipina marathoner Jaymie Pizarro and celebrity athlete Bubbles Paraiso, who are both Go Well ambassadors, spearheaded event, which was capped off by a two-kilometer run and a yoga class.
With the successful staging yesterday, the event will already be a monthly affair in Cebu.
“Our main goal is to launch Go Well in Cebu and also to spread the word of the new advocacy of Sun Life which is for wellness, we want to make Filipinos live a brighter and active life. Sun Life is really known to insurance and financial aspects so we want to promote its other side,” said Pizarro.
The Go Well community was launched in October in Manila then expanded to Cebu.
There are regular community workouts every month such as Zumba, dance classes and the Namaste Run.
