Building on the success of the series of events that Unilab Active Health has organized since 2010, Unilab Laboratories, Inc. (Unilab) accelerates further its campaign in 2012 for an active lifestyle with bigger and more exciting banner events: Run United, a running event, Tri United, a triathlon race, and Bike United, a cycling race.
As the leading pharmaceutical and healthcare company in the Philippines, Unilab has always set the trail in helping Filipinos live a healthier lifestyle. The Unilab Active Health sports programs are envisioned to provide avenues to Filipino families to be inspired, to take interest or become more committed in leading an active and healthy lifestyle with the help of sports such as running, cycling, and triathlon. The Unilab Active Health events were carefully designed with race experts and coaches to help Filipinos sustain and pursue an active lifestyle all year round.
And true enough, 2012 promises to unveil more exhilarating firsts in the Active Health events starting off with the introduction of its partners in three sports namely, running, triathlon and cycling, who will serve as mentors to coach and motivate the new breed of fitter and healthier Filipinos.
