Run Hard & Play Hard with adidas Runners Manila

adidas running group brings a lot of good memories. In 2009, Takbo.ph together with adidas formed the adination for Runners (aNR). The aNR is a running club organized by adidas and Takbo.ph which were already launched in other countries like Japan, Singapore and Malaysia. There were six areas in Metro Manila with weekly group runs.

I made a lot of friends in the running community because of this! We even had all the aNR group meet up for a competitive run.

This 2017, adidas is back with the Adidas Runners Manila! I’m so happy to see familiar groups, formed during the aNR days – Ayala Triads and Snail Runners – that are still strong and running.

adidas Runners Manila is not just another sports club. It’s a global running movement to energize, support and unite runners all over the world.

adidas Runners will be lead by coaches and teamleads who will push participants to the next level. Runners of all levels will enjoy personalized milestone plans, expert coaching (strength coach, nutrition coach, medical coach) and unique rewards to inspire and motivate participants to reach their personal goals. The runs will be led by adidas running coaches. They’ll take you through the basics of running, some drills and a cool down session.

The group run is open to all. Updates about the run schedules and other activities will be posted on the adidas Runners Manila Facebook group. adidas Runners Manila’s first run as a team, AR Manila | Blast Off Saturday,  will happen tomorrow at the University of the Philippines Diliman Palma Hall at 5:45 am.
