“A Force of Four in Year 4”: Vermosa Green Run 2025

"Each step you take at the Vermosa Green Run supports a bigger cause; combining fitness, sustainability, and community support into one meaningful event." ~Chrissy Roa, Ayala Land Estates’ Marketing and Communications Group Head

This June, the Green Run at Vermosa will return for the fourth year in a row, this time with a renewed focus on child sports development, animal welfare, environmental sustainability, and fitness.

The Vermosa Green Run 2025: A Force of Four in Year 4 will take place at the Vermosa Estate in Imus, Cavite, on Sunday, June 29, 2025.  Along with its 3K, 5K, 10K, and 21K road races, Ayala Land's premier multi-level running event this year now introduces a Plastic Donation and Collection Drive.

Ayala Land Estates Inc. and Makati Development Corporation (MDC) invite all participants to bring used plastics for recycling and repurposing.  The plastic garbage will be converted into concrete aggregates, sustainable building materials, and other equipment for constructing fences and walkways that support Ayala Land's green development projects.  Donors receive a discount when registering for the Green Run.

The well-known 1K Dog Run, which supports Ayala Land's support of animal welfare, is returning for the third year.  In 2023, this unique aspect of the Green Run was added to give participants an enjoyable and purposeful method to exercise while strengthening their bonds with their pets and to increase awareness of animal welfare.

The Green Run will be attended by the young athletes of Takbo Kabitenyo, a 200-member organization that runs for health reasons and participates in marathons across the nation.  As part of Ayala Land's efforts to support young athletes, the young runners in this group receive instruction, coaching, and access to Vermosa's sports facilities.

Key advocacy partners, such as the animal welfare organization Pawssion Project, the reforestation leader Haribon Foundation, and the local program Takbo Kabitenyo, which provides training and mentorship opportunities for young athletes, will benefit from the event's revenues.

The Vermosa Green Run, which has become a standard for activities with a purpose, supports Ayala Land's long-term sustainability goals and demonstrates how exercise can have a significant positive influence on the environment and society.

Green Run at Vermosa encourages outdoor activity, nature appreciation for physical, mental health

“As more places begin to reopen, we can now enjoy the outdoors with more activities to engage in. I personally advocate sports and spending time outdoors as it helps boost physical and mental health. Physical activities, like running, provide a change of scenery and help reduce stress. This is why we organized the Vermosa Green Run. We want people to rediscover their surroundings, appreciate nature, enjoy the fresh air and boost their health. With an abundance of wide-open spaces and the state-of-the-art sports facilities at Vermosa Sports Hub, Vermosa provides one of the best venues to engage in physical activities.” ~Jay Teodoro, Vermosa Estate Head

After two years of lockdown and getting used to the New Normal, Vermosa is opening up its Estates to hardcore runners, running enthusiasts, fitness buffs, athletes in training, fun runners and families who want to rekindle their health and have fun in the sun.

THE GREEN RUN at Vermosa is set for Sunday, July 3 and advocates for a return to physical activity, a return to the green outdoors and a re-appreciation of the environment. Vermosa has partnered with Pinoy Fitness to handle the Run and will donate all proceeds to the Haribon Foundation's Adopt-a-Seedling program.

Consisting of 21K, 10K, 5K and 3K distance categories, the Green Run is targeting elite athletes, fun runners, fitness enthusiasts, athletes in training, weekend athletes, families, barkada, and just about anyone who is eager to run.  Various running routes winding through wide open spaces and abundant greenery punctuated with wide pedestrian walkways, bicycle and jogging lanes, and enhanced greenways will make this Run a truly pleasant experience.

Vermosa’s famous Ayala Vermosa Sports Hub, a state-of-the-art professionally–managed sports facility that has already hosted various national and international sports events will be the center of activities for registration and information. Featuring a FINA-standard Olympic size swimming pool, a warm up pool, an IAAF standard 400m track oval, field with natural tiff grass, an Athletes Lounge, and a gym operated by Sante Fitness Lab, a premier training ground for amateur and professional athletes.

Vermosa has partnered with Pinoy Fitness, the running, fitness and multisport event organizer, to conduct the Run. A beautiful medal created by artist Cynthia Bauzon-Arre of Forest Foundation Philippines, will be among the perks that runners will get for their participation. Proceeds of the Run will go to Haribon Foundation’s Adopt-a-Seedling Program, to build a greener tomorrow.
