Even though the world is going through a pandemic, there are always opportunities for runners to be able to compete and complete their desired lengths, even as long as a marathon.
This is what is being proposed by the RunRio Trilogy Run Asia Virtual Run.
The RunRio Trilogy Run is considered as the country's premier running series. Established in 2010, it is designed for runners who want to complete a marathon via a progression running program. In progression running, participants run at a slower pace until their speed and distance gradually increase at each virtual leg. From 21K in the first leg, it becomes 32K on the second leg, and caps off with a 42K on the final leg.
For the final leg of this year's edition, it is scheduled between November 28 to December 12. Virtual runners can pick and choose their desired length to run, accomplish to do that whether via treadmill or by an actual run in a specific location. They just need to use a GPS-tracking app and a timing mechanism to monitor their run.
Once accomplished, they just need to take a photo of their race results and send them to info@runrio.com within a couple of weeks of completion.
To help with one's preparations for the virtual run, there will be pre-recorded workout sessions on November 15 and 27 on SKY Community Channel 955 and on the social media platforms of RunRio.
In addition, there will be a LIVE pre-run work-out on November 21 at 4pm. The "SKY Rise and Grind" workout will be shown on the FYE Channel on Kumu. On November 28, the pre-run warm-up program "Kick Off to T3" will be shown on the aforementioned channels. That event will also have the ceremonial gun start of the virtual marathon.
Meanwhile, Coach Rio will have a live Zoom session on December 5, called "Huddle with Coach Rio," where fifty lucky participants will have the chance to interact with him. They will also have the chance to win special prizes during that experience.
For further details about the Trilogy Run, one can check runrio.com or on the official Facebook and Instagram profiles of RunRio Events, Inc.
On December 6, there will be a special charity event involving SKY and ABS-CBN Foundation.
Called the 100 Steps Challenge, it calls on interested participants to upload an actual video of themselves completing a hundred steps, then attaching the hashtag #100Hakbang1Pamilya. The first three hundred runners to complete the challenge will receive a commemorative shirt.
SKY will also make a charitable donation to the ABS-CBN Foundation's "Pantawid ng Pag-ibig: Isang Daan. Isang Pamilya" campaign on behalf of the 100 Steps Challenge participants.
