Run, Swim, and Conquer in the Second Edition of Sun Life PH's Aquathlon

When we talk of Sun Life's fitness activities, what comes first in our mind is the annual Sunpiology Race which involves running and biking. The said race grows further making it one of the most anticipated and the largest celebrity races in the country. It even split into two parts, the Sunpiology Duo highlighting the bike and run enthusiasts.   

But this October, Sun Life PH brings back another exciting race for the swimmers. This is called the Sun Life Aquathlon.
