The Hospital at Maayo is thrilled to introduce its charitable initiative, “Run for Health,” a fun run where every mile you cover makes a difference. The event’s proceeds will benefit the hospital’s indigent patients. Co-presented with the Primary Group of Builders, its mother company, the Run for Health is set to take place on November 19, 2023. This event is open to everyone, aiming to promote community engagement, wellness, and a shared commitment to make an impact beyond the hospital’s services.
Registration ends on November 5, 2023. You can conveniently register online starting October 16, 2023. If you prefer onsite registration, visit either the Ground Floor at The Hospital at Maayo or The Wellness Hub, i2 Building.
Dr. Maria Carmina Joyce C. Alferez, the Chief of Clinics at the Hospital at Maayo, emphasizes that the run is inclusive, welcoming seasoned runners and beginners, teens, adults, seniors, and individuals with or without health conditions or impairments. For seniors and persons with disabilities (PWDs), Dr. Maria Carmina advises consulting their doctors before participating to ensure their safety during the event.
To provide prompt medical assistance, ambulances and the hospital’s medical staff will be on standby throughout the event. Dr. Maria Carmina also assures participants that the fun run will be well-hydrated, with strategically placed hydration stations along the route.
