I ran the London marathon last 23 April 2023 and it was a truly meaningful experience as I ran for a cause close to my heart—supporting Bliss, a UK charity dedicated to premature or sick babies.

I am now preparing for my next challenge—the Paris Marathon on 7 April 2024. Being an Olympic year, I am inspired to make this second marathon an even more remarkable experience. This time, I have decided to give back to my home country, the Philippines, by supporting athletes and providing them with the necessary funding for their running shoes.

As a proud alumnus of the University of the Philippines (UP), I have chosen the UP Track and Field as one of the beneficiaries. Depending on the amount of funds I can raise, I am hopeful to extend our support to additional beneficiaries, enabling more athletes to benefit from our collective efforts.

It would be an honour if you could join me on this running and fundraising journey. Your support means the world to me!

Thank you so much! Muchas gracias! Maraming Salamat po!
