adidas Philippines continues its commitment to help end plastic waste with the launch of its Run for the Oceans campaign. This year, adidas invites Filipinos to run, walk, cycle, hike, or even kick goals to help end the problem with marine plastic pollution.
Sign up to Run for the Oceans through the adidas Runtastic app which will also be used to track and log your runs. From May 23 to June 8, for every 10 minutes of running recorded via the adidas Runtastic app, Joyrun, Codoon, Yeudongquan or Strava, Parley will clean up the equivalent weight of one plastic bottle from beaches, remote islands, and coastlines before it reaches the ocean (up to a maximum of 250,000kg).
The adidas Runtastic app also recognizes other sports such as basketball, football, cycling, hiking, and a lot more!
adidas also challenges mall goers to the Run for the Oceans 10 Minute Challenge in select adidas stores in Two Parkade BGC, SM Mall of Asia, Brand Center Glorietta, and Trinoma from May 23 – June 8. By running at least 10 minutes in the store’s designated running tracks or treadmills, consumers will not only contribute to the Run for the Oceans movement, but will also get the chance to win adidas Parley products.
adidas, in collaboration with its running community adidas Runners Manila (aRM), will also be hosting a series of runs and activities throughout the month that interested Filipinos may join to start logging their runs in their personal efforts to help end plastic waste.
Run For the Oceans Day
I attended the Run For the Oceans Day yesterday at SM Mall of Asia. It was actually my first group run in two years! Great to see familiar and new faces running the streets again.
Run For the Oceans has long been an integral part of adidas activations in the Philippines with adidas Runners Manila. It’s nice to see this legacy continue now that we can run in groups once more.
Join adidas and Parley in its Run for the Oceans by signing up at the adidas Running app and logging running activities from May 23 to June 8. Find out more at adidas.com/runfortheoceans and the adidas Runners Manila Facebook group.
