The whole concept of the Immuvit Fearless Challenge Trail Run 2012 follows Immuvit’s brand idea of living fully and aging fearlessly. “Each leg of the three-part series is meant to excite and challenge Filipino fitness enthusiasts in various ways, because of the twists we've put to the usual running events,” explains Ms. Valerie Tan-Sison, brand manager of Pascual Consumer Healthcare Corp.   

 

Leg 2, which is called “No Excuses,” will be held at the Quezon City Memorial Circle on September 29, while Leg 3, dubbed as “No Turning Back,” is set to conquer Nuvali at Sta. Rosa, Laguna on October 6.  Registration is now open for both legs and will close on September 24 for Leg 2, and October 2 for Leg 3, respectively. 

 

Leg 2‘s “No Excuses,” focuses on meta-fit challenges that are conceptualized and designed by Immuvit brand ambassador Coach Jim Saret, a US-certified Sports Medicine expert and Athletic Training Specialist.   It is composed of stations featuring exercises such as the Rip 60 Challenge, Tire Flips, Wiper Push-ups, Tire Pull, Walking Lunges, and Burpee Box Jump. The key is to perform these exercises with proper form, following the prescribed Meta-Fit standards.  The “No Excuses” leg will be open to both individual and team participants.

 

Meanwhile, Leg 3’s “No Turning Back,” will have 8k and 16k categories and will surely excite participants with its fire jump, log hurdles, oil wall, tire mountain, river crossing, military wall, military crawl, ice pool, sand bag, and garter maze obstacles. 

 

According to Coach Jim, these events are in line with Immuvit’s goal of encouraging and enabling Filipinos to age fearlessly.  “We are promoting a lifestyle that combats somatopause, or the metabolism slowdown that typically begins in the late 20s.  For example, the Meta-Fit Challenge is designed to test the fitness levels of the participants and compare their physical age versus their biological age. The exercises promote higher metabolism and energy, and even stronger bones,” said Coach Jim.  

 

Immuvit is the only multivitamin brand with the unique and powerful combination of two potent ginseng extracts (Korean and Siberian) and CoQ10, that help slow down the manifestations of aging and provide the body with the much-needed boost of energy. The ginsengs help produce increased energy and performance by improving oxygenation of the cell tissues, while CoQ10 repairs and reverses the cellular damage caused by free radicals that help prevent age-related problems.
