Earlier today, Dave and I joined the POGS Run For Mom 2015 race in Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City. I have been eyeing this race for a while now and was glad to get an invite from a friend. Luckily, they provide on-site registration. I simply cannot pass up an opportunity to run for a cause that I support.
Mederma, the leading brand in the US for stretch marks therapy have established their campaign called Medermom which encourages mothers to support and care for other mothers who may have limited access to maternal care. This advocacy, I definitely support and whatever help I can give, I will give it, for I am a mom myself and I know the challenges mothers face. No matter what they go through, they will always put the care of their families first and Medermom aims to provide them the care and help they need.
Medermom partnered with Philippine Obstetrical and Gynecological Society (POGS) to dedicate a special run for moms in support of their advocacy that every mother deserves only the greatest care. It was good to see that a lot of people participated in the race. There were doctors, moms, dads, teens and even little kids.
Even before the race started, the people were already very hyped up! The event started with a very energetic warm-up exercise then off we went to the race.
Now, on to something a little more interesting for moms like me, the Mederma Stretch marks therapy. Anything that will solve my stretch marks problem, I am absolutely down for it! I have worried about stretch marks even before I got pregnant and have tried several popular brands of stretch marks therapy lotion in the market, religiously lathering it on my tummy but all to no avail. With very limited choices in the country of this kind of product, this definitely piqued my interest.
The Marketing Manager, Ms. J-Ann Mirasol, explained that its never too late to try it. There were moms who tried even after several years after giving birth and still got positive results. This product is carefully formulated with Onion Extract, Centella Asiatica and Hyaluronic Acid and is clinically proven to have a triple restore action that softens, smoothens and replenishes skin in as early as two weeks. Well then, upon hearing that, I'm sold! Im definitely buying this product ASAP while their BUY 1, TAKE 1 promo is still on!
Mederma products are currently available for purchase in selected Watson's and Mercury drug stores. For more details, please visit www.facebook.com/MederMOM
What I liked about the race itself is the venue, Camp Aguinaldo, and the different stops they had. Running in Camp Aguinaldo seemed like you were running in a small familiar village. There were police in uniforms cleaning the roads together, greeting you as you pass by. There were small groups of policemen jogging together in two lines. People were very warm and polite.
During the race, they had several unusual stops; there was the pastillas booth, Halloween booth, where people in masks were giving away candies and there was the iced candy stop. I like iced candy and this booth surely made me smile.
After the race, there were also several food booths that were offering street food like taho, hotdogs, ice cream and fishballs. They also had their own photobooth thats free! Good job to POGS and Mederma for this collaboration!
