Backbeat Run 2017: The Coolest and Well-Rewarded Run for a Cause

 

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Where else can you find a fun run that generously rewards you perks and freebies from start to finish?

Even more, techies will also rejoice as their rewards are a bunch of the coolest gadgets distributed by Banbros like products from Plantronics, Brother, ThiEYE and other gadget brands, that will let you enjoy a well-entertained and leisurely lifestyle.

Imagine receiving a Plantronics ML15 Bluetooth Headset that costs P995 as part of the race kit! This alone makes the run seem like free.

Race winners (3 for every category) gets to bring home gadgets as well. The biggest delegation per company, organization and school also gets more amazing prizes. It's the best motivating factor for groups to join the run.

But wait, there's more! They also make it the ultimate race by giving you a concert party as the participants are entertained by bands, DJs and dancers.

This must be the coolest fun run ever conceptualized. It is very evident that the organizers are seemingly giving away prizes to the participants.

Beyond the fun run is an advocacy as well as the proceeds of the run will go to the Kythe Foundation which takes care of children with cancer. We were surprised that a young man with disability (amputated leg) went up front to give his message or testimonial of how Kythe Foundation has helped him to keep his courage to face life amidst the disability. Now this is the most honorable reason why you have to join this event. 

Kudos to all the sponsors and the brains behind this event. Most of them were at the media launch held on April 17, 2017 at Abe Restaurant Mall of Asia. 

It’s Official: Tomorrow Is Overrated

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Stop everything you’re doing because Jose Cuervo has declared it: Tomorrow is Overrated!

Jose Cuervo’s latest campaign, Tomorrow is Overrated, is a call to arms that invites drinkers to heed the call by filling shot glasses in celebration of today. Is the world ending tomorrow? It doesn’t matter- this newest campaign invites drinkers to make the most out of today.

While the project is rather risqué, it remains true to the spirit of tequila and the ‘never say never’ ethos that has made Jose Cuervo® such a celebrated brand among drinkers around the world.

The campaign is led by the short film, Last Days. The film takes place in downtrodden town on the edge of nowhere and follows a group of patrons in the middle of the apocalypse. With nothing left to do, the group savor shots of Jose Cuervo Especial® Silver as couples dance to the Elvis Presley classic, “It’s Now or Never”.

The film can be viewed in its entirety here: http://cuervo.com/tomorrow-is-overrated/

The video showcases Jose Cuervo Especial® Silver, which can be taken on it’s own as a shot or mixed into your favourite cocktail.

And be sure to keep an eye out for the new Jose Cuervo Especial® bottles which are expected to hit the local market in just a few short months.
