Growers advocates a cleaner and a healthier lifestyle

 with Blaire - at the start of the race

Professional and amateur runners, eager to help promote a healthy lifestyle, gathered as early as 5:30 a.m. to run in the 3K, 5K, and 10K races at the University of the Philippines (UP) Diliman campus in Quezon City, to take part in the first ever Growers NutriBar Hip 2B Fit Fun Run. A special 3K parent-child race was also held.

Presented by Growers NutriBar in cooperation with the UP Mountaineers, the race will benefit the UP Padyak project which promotes biking within the UP Diliman campus as a means of transportation to promote health and fitness and lessen the dependence on fossil fuel-driven vehicles.

Growers NutriBar donated bike racks to be installed around the campus where UP Padyak members can safely park their single-speed cruiser bikes. Each rack can securely accommodate cable-locked bikes.

     NutriBar is a healthy snack buddy available in choco chips, apple & cinnamon and peanut butter flavors.
