Powerade Run4Gold Helps Support Our Olympic Athletes

The 2012 Olympics at London is casting over 10,000 athletes from 204 National Olympic Committees, and out of those, our Country only have 11 contingents for this Worldwide multi-sporting event. As show of support for our 11 Olympiads -- the smallest delegation in the Philippine's Olympic participation history since 1932, Powerade Philippines has made an innovative promo for our Olympic athletes called 'Run4Gold'.

People are encouraged to also signify their support simply by uploading videos of themselves running from the left to the right of the screen. For every video submitted, Powerade will donate Php 100.00 towards this worthwhile cause!
