Herbalife Philippines Celebrates 22nd Anniversary with Fun Run, Nutrition Day

Herbalife Philippines has reached another milestone as it celebrates its 22nd year of providing good nutrition in the Philippines.

To mark this event, the company held an Anniversary Fun Run at the Bonifacio Global City last December 4, Sunday.

There were about 3,000 people composed of Herbalife Independent Distributors, professional athletes, running enthusiasts, media, bloggers and company employees of the multinational brand here in the country. The event, according to Herbalife Philippines General Manager Bong Valenzuela, coincided with the Herbalife Nutrition Day celebration across the Asia Pacific Region.

"This is a free fun run. We have mounted this activity to thank everyone for the continued support they have given Herbalife for the past 22 years," said Valenzuela.

The event was attended by some of the country's top athletes such as First Norseman Xtreme Challenge Finisher Omar Paredes and his wife Laarni, who has been drafted recently to compete for the Norseman Challenge next year.
