Piolo Pascual, Enchong Dee and Sun Life Executives Raced for the Sun Life Tri-Team

The 2017 Cobra Ironman 70.3 Philippines triathlon race was a success, held last Sunday, August 06, 2017 here in Cebu. Just a day prior, the Sun Life Tri-Team held a press conference at the Shangri-La’s Mactan Resort and Spa in Lapu-Lapu City.
The Sun Life Financial Philippines once again took part of the said event, with its very own executives, advisors, and brand ambassador Piolo Pascual leading their Tri-Team. Sun Life had a total of five relay teams and one individual racer – by far its biggest contingency since it started joining the prestigious race in 2013.
Actor Enchong Dee (swim) joined fellow celebrity Piolo Pascual (bike) in  his team along with Toniel Ty (run).
Sun Life Board Director Paco Sandejas (swim) raced with Sun Life advisors Eboy de Leon (bike) and Mike Miras (run).
Sandejas’ wife, former Olympian and TV host Christine Jacob Sandejas (swim) formed Sun Life’s all-female team together with Laarni de Guzman (bike) and Sun Life Health and Wellness Marketing Manager Jaymie “The Bull Runner” Pizarro (run).
Former national team member Jan Michael Chiu (swim) together with Sun Life’s Karl Villalonga (bike) and Alfred Diacosa (run) composed the 4th team, while Sun Life advisors KB Espinosa (swim) and Rocio Pantaleon (bike) together with Toots Malapad (run) of Sun Life’s Agency Business Development Group formed the 5th team.
Meanwhile, Hazel Ferrer-Misa of Sun Life’s Strategy and Financial Management Group competed in the individual category.
The medal awarded to the racers was once again designed by the multi-awarded furniture designer and manufacturer from Cebu, Kenneth Cobonpue, himself a Sun Life brand ambassador.
“Sun Life has taken part in the Ironman many times, and yet, the excitement it brings never gets old. We’re proud of how our team is mostly composed of our very own executives and advisors, who truly embody our company’s commitment to health and wellness,” Sun Life CEO and Country Head Riza Mantaring said.

Sun Life has been boosting its health and wellness initiatives with GoWell, a community that promotes holistic wellness through a fit and active lifestyle, healthy eating, and living a balanced life. For more details kindly check their website.

“We hope that the Sun Life Tri-Team will inspire Filipinos who are looking to lead healthier lives. We encourage them to join the GoWell community so that we can help them reach their fitness goals,” Mantaring said.
During the presscon, Sunpiology Duo was launched. It will come in two parts: Sun Life Cycle PH and Sun Life Resolution Run. Sun Life will be mounting the event in partnership with Sunrise Events, Inc. Contract signing between the two companies took place with Sun Life CEO and Country Head Riza Mantaring, Sun Life ambassador Piolo Pascual, Sunrise Founder Wilfred Uytengsu, and Sunrise General Manager Princess Galura in attendance.
