Santé Barley Leads Running and Wellness in the Philippines

One of a kind running series in the Philippines partners with Santé Barley to promote running as a way to live more, do more

In an exciting move to promote healthier living among Filipinos, Santé Barley, the barley authority in the Philippines, proudly announces its role as a co-presenter and the Official Nutrition Partner of HOKA Trilogy Run Asia 2024.

Since 2010, HOKA Trilogy Run Asia (formerly RUNRIO Trilogy) has inspired running in the Philippines. Santé Barley values this partnership as it expands its reach and promotes a healthy, active lifestyle.

At the opening race on April 8, 8,000 runners participated. Since then, registration has been rising steadily; consequently, organizers now expect at least 64,000 participants for this year’s HOKA Trilogy Run Asia.

Santé CEO Joey Marcelo expressed his enthusiasm, noting that this partnership represents a significant opportunity to promote healthier lifestyles among Filipinos.

“We are thrilled to partner with HOKA Trilogy Run Asia, not only to expand Santé Barley’s reach but, more importantly, to promote health and fitness across the Philippines. Just as Santé Barley is packed with nutritional benefits, we believe in holistic wellness, and this alliance presents an exciting opportunity to inspire individuals to live more and do more,”

Marcelo noted that more Santé employees and business owners are joining the races, making running an affordable and accessible way to stay active.

“The beauty of running is that you can do it whenever and wherever you want. Whether you run solo, with groups, or even if you don’t join races like this and just set your own PRs (personal records), you can still enjoy the sport. So, I am really glad that we get to share this positive outlook on running within the Santé community and, of course, with the general public,”
