Get a Dose of Cuteness at This Weekend Fun Run With Pets

(SPOT.ph) Set your alarms for October 1, 5 a.m., as Run Fur Life returns to Bridgetowne Destination Estate in Pasig City. This annual event, hosted by Robinsons Land Corporation and organized by the Animal Kingdom Foundation, brings together pets and hoomans in a day of sunshine, fun, and exercise. The run kit is P950, inclusive of the delivery fee.

For the second consecutive year, Robinsons Land Corporation's property development will provide the backdrop for this exciting event, supported by Animal Kingdom Foundation (AKF), a non-profit organization with a mission to end the dog meat trade and improve animal welfare in the Philippines. Run Fur Life, which started in 2016, raises funds to help rescue and rehabilitate abused and abandoned dogs at AKF's shelter in Capas, Tarlac.

This year, Run Fur Life takes on a disco theme, where thousands of pet owners and their canine companions are expected to participate, dressed in their best clubwear. Bridgetowne Destination Estate, with its 30.6-hectare expanse and iconic 200-meter bridge designed by National Artist Francisco "Bobby" Mañosa, provides an ideal setting for a fun run amid lush greenery.

Dr. Ian Banzon, a triathlete who joined last year's Run Fur Life, shared: "With events like these, you really get to see how much care, time, and attention they give to their pets." Beyond celebrating the bond between pets and owners, the event encourages people to step outdoors, connect with others, and improve their health.

This year, a 5K division is added to the existing 1K and 3K divisions.
