Running Man: Serious Run, Serious Fun at Venice Piazza Mckinley Hill, Bonifacio Global City on November 17, 2012

Tweet

Futuretainment Inc. redefines running at Venice Piazza, Mckinley Hill, Bonifacio Global City on November 17, 2012. 

Imagine traversing rolling terrain and hurdling a thrilling obstacle course designed by only the most exacting adventure enthusiasts. The Peak Attack is sure to give you a kick-start, quite literally, as you scale a mound of earth. If it isn’t a strong grip, leg strength should get you to the next challenge. 

Next, you have to lift yourself enough to grab the Monkey Bars, all the while keeping a firm hold to keep from falling into muddy water. This should take you back to your childhood days at the playground, though the feat is far more than child’s play. If you survive the Monkey Bars, you’ll feel the thrill to the finish drawing closer at the Tunnel Crawl. Conquer your claustrophobia and try to get ahead of the game. The fun trail continues to the Wall Balance, where you’ll find yourself negotiating a perilous edge, towards the Log Hurdles. Simulating military boot camp, this obstacle should reveal how much time you’ve spent working on your legs at the gym, more than just biceps and chest. Your agility and flexibility are also put to the test. For the finale, the Net Crawl shall get you inching your way through, between an unwieldy net, and mud.

All participants who finish the race receive finisher’s medals, but the three fastest get gold. Your race bib also entitles you to raffle prizes, with a GRAND PRIZE of Php50,000 cash. There’s got to be energy left to party, and we have just the perfect music for that, with the console concoctions of Deuce Manila, and Funk Avy, plus FREE DRINKS for everyone to celebrate the victory of getting through a fantastic race.

Be 13 years old at least to register at www.futuretainmentinc.com, and www.runnersrunner.com. Secure a medical clearance from your doctor if you have serious medical condition, and submit a proof of parental consent if you are below 18 years old upon registration. Then you can run until you’ve had the most fun of all on November 17, 2012.

Dare to claim the title of the 1st Running Man of the Philippines. For more information, log on to www.futuretainmentinc.com or visit Chris Sports SM North, SM Megamall, SM Mall of Asia, Glorietta, Bonifacio High Street, and Festival Mall in Alabang for a registration form.

The Dynamism of the Makati Street Market: Alveo Land showcases ease of living in Legazpi Village

Tweet

Seven years have passed yet the Legazpi Sunday Market in Makati City continues to thrive as an artisanal haven of sorts, with a unique market concept rarely found in an urban setting.

A favorite among Makati denizens and city-goers, the weekend souk has been a venue for people to dine, shop, and take pleasure in international cuisines, hand-made products, organic finds, green items, and local products exceptionally-crafted to go along with its artisanal impression. Hence, what was once organized to service the community with just 30 merchants now boasts of more than 150 vendors from different regions of the country like Ilocos, Bicol, Negros, and Davao. And with its central location, the Legazpi Sunday Market also bolsters the convenience and ease of living in Makati.

To further foster the market's potential, the Legazpi Market organizers, together with GeiserMaclang Inc. and its sponsors, have rechristened the “Legazpi Sunday Market” into the “Makati Street Market.” For four consecutive Sundays starting September 23, pocket events will be held to highlight the dynamism of the bazaar while more than 70 merchants will be added to the roster of vendors at the site.

In Tune with the Lifestyle Scene

With easy access being one of the pivotal features of the Makati Street Market, Alveo Land—Ayala Land Inc.’s benchmark of innovation—is joining the said event as one of the major sponsors to underscore the vibrant lifestyle and the perks of living in a thriving city.

For its opening salvo this past September 23, the Makati Street Market kicked-off with a Salsa and Sangria event, in partnership with Escola de Samba de Manila and Ralph's Wines and Spirits. The Makati Street Market has also lined up the successful “Adobolympics” and “Grilla in Manila” events, where competitions will allow participants to showcase exceptional adobo recipes and personal grilling tricks.

This September 30, the Makati Street Market will feature a special biking workshop and city tour with bike enthusiast Clive Villanueva in partnership with Alveo Land’s landmark project in Legazpi—Kroma Tower. The city tour, which will pass through thoroughfares such as Pasong Tamo, Dela Rosa, Buendia and Legazpi Village aims to highlight the ease and accessibility of Makati’s dynamic environs. And since Kroma Tower will be one of the primary stops, the said trip will also emphasize the development’s prime connections to the Makati Central Business District, as well as key destinations that set the trend in convenience, cuisine, and culture.

Through these events, the Makati Street Market showcases itself as a must-visit weekend souk that highlights not only a unique dining and shopping experience in an artisanal destination, but also underscores the vibrant lifestyle and the perks of living in Makati.

The Makati Street Market is developed by the Legazpi Market Organizers in partnership with Alveo Land and GeiserMaclang Inc.. It is also supported by the Make It Happen! Make It Makati! campaign, an ongoing project initiated by Ayala Land Inc. (ALI), Makati Commercial Estate Association, Inc. (MACEA), and the local government of Makati.

The Makati Street Market is located at the Legazpi Park in Makati City. The pocket events will run for four Sundays (September 23, September 30, October 7, and October 14) from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Interested sponsors may contact 0917-521-4624 or <makatistreetmarket@gmail.com>.
