Wazzup Pilipinas!
Fun runs are everywhere! I hear about a run organized by different organizations almost every week that we could probably also call our country the fun run capital of the world.
Last November 23, 2014 was one awesome comic experience for many running enthusiasts as they braced themselves for one epic run! The HERO RUSH 2014 was a superhero-themed fun run with a cause with lots of freebies as well courtesy of their sponsors.
Since the run was open to the public, the students of the University of the Philippines Diliman was joined by other students from different colleges and universities and other runners from all walks of life. We even saw a few foreigners joining the fun. In fact, they were the most competitive among the hero rushers.
Your friendly neighborhood pambansang blogger also saw a cosplayer in an Ironman suit. This made me look around just in case there's a Captain America cosplayer as well. But sorry, only Ironman was there to thrill the crowd with some photo opportunity with him.
What's so adorable about the fun run is that hero rushers get to wear race singlets bearing the likeness of the two Marvel superheroes mentioned earlier. Registration to the fun run is inclusive of one (1) race singlet, race bib with RFID Timing Chip, route map, mechanics, and a fabulous race box with the superhero theme.
The runners get to grab water, and apple juice, along the fun run route as they competitively run around the UP Academic Oval starting form the Engineering Building. Other sponsors also setup booths near the starting area.
Hero Rush was organized by the UP Engineering Student Council and proceeds of the fun run was for the benefit of the Philippine Toy Library.
