MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Wearing their unique and creative costumes from superheroes to tuna cans, the 36 Century Tuna Superbods finalists displayed their stunning physiques, undeterrable spirit, and ingenuity as they sprinted the five-kilometer run during the recently held “Century Tuna Superbods Underpants Run” at the Subic Bay Boardwalk.
The 2024 Century Tuna Superbods Underpants Run became an avenue for the Century Tuna Superbods to promote the #BestYouEver campaign by celebrating health and fitness and inspiring others to become the best versions of themselves.
Usually held before IRONMAN races, the Century Tuna Superbods Underpants Run kickstarted this year’s Century Tuna Full IRONMAN Philippines in Subic Bay last June 07.
The run was participated by more than 500 runners, who also wore colorful and creative outfits, including this year’s Century Tuna Superbods finalists, Century Pacific Food Inc. executives, Century Tuna Superbod 2014 Grand Winner Mauro Lumba, Century Tuna Superbod 2022 Grand Winner Kirk Bondad and Century Tuna Guest Superbod Atty. Oliver Moeller.
This year’s Century Tuna Superbods finalist Patrick Patawaran was awarded the Best Costume during the run where he showed up wearing his Century Tuna can costume.
Anchored on the #BestYouEver campaign, Century Tuna championed the personal growth and advocacies of the finalists, including taking care of the environment. Before the run, Century Tuna also held its “Saving Our Seas” coastal clean-up in partnership with SBMA where the participants collected 32 sacks of plastic waste along the coastline of Subic Bay. This is also in preparation for the swimming stage of the IRONMAN competition.
“The Century Tuna Superbods Underpants Run is more than just a celebration of fun and festivities. It exemplifies the strong sense of community that Superbods has fostered over the years, providing a platform for people to embrace and celebrate their passion for health and wellness. We are proud that our Century Tuna Superbods are always going above and beyond in promoting the #BestYouEver campaign. Our solid set of Superbods finalists truly embody what it is to be a Superbod — inspiring, passionate, and committed. We are a month down to finals and we have seen them grow their advocacies together with Century Tuna,” said Mr. Greg Banzon, EVP and COO of Century Pacific Food Inc.
The Century Tuna Superbods 2024 embarks on the #BestYouEver campaign and the remarkable journeys of the Superbods to promote the best versions of themselves and inspire others.
