Calasiao Fun Run raises fund for charity

By February 18, 2012News, People & Events

OLD and young, they sweat it out as they ran for a cause.

An estimated 500 runners took part in the “Two One Two One Two Fun Run” held in Calasiao on February 12 for the benefit of the Abong ya Panangaro Sisters of Charity based in Dagupan City

The 3.5- and 10-kilometer fun runs, with the theme “Alay ng Puso ed Abong ya Panangaro”, was sponsored by the Honey Beez Klan and the Calasiao Walkers and Runners Club.

Darwin Bañez, from the High Sierra American bag pack, one of the sponsors of the event and a member of the Honey Beez Klan, said the motivation behind the fun run was to promote health and wellness among the people of Calasiao while helping others.

“It is good to know that people from other towns came all the way to Calasiao just to support the cause,” said Bañez.

He added that there were international runners from Kenya who participated.

Dr. Ronna Angela Untalan of Honey Beez Klan said the organization will be sponsoring similar events in the future and she hopes that people will continue to support such causes.—Sher Palola, CdD
