By Runners for Runners: HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2, Developed with King of Marathon Eliud Kipchoge, Now Available for PHP 19,999

The lightest and most precise titanium smartwatch in its class, the HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2, redefines how runners prepare and perform. Eliud Kipchoge, the first and only person to complete a marathon in less than two hours, was a co-developer of the device.

His "No Human Is Limited" philosophy, which expresses a notion that running belongs to everyone, not only elite athletes, regardless of pace or distance, is reflected in his long advocacy for running as a universal pastime. This concept served as the foundation for the HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2, which integrated top-tier training intelligence into the daily routines of both recreational and competitive runners.

“What made me collaborate with HUAWEI is that we have the same values. I can believe in creating movement in this world. If you move, you become healthy, and that's the real core. I want to make this world a running world through movement. Together—myself and HUAWEI—we are trying to package this movement for every citizen in the world. Not everyone can access the best coaches in the world, but we are lucky to have HUAWEI—with the best people who have run marathons, 5k, 10k, and 21k—to coach you. Free of charge. All you need is the HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2.” ~Eliud Kipchoge, King of Marathon 

Powered by Kipchoge’s Experience, Built for Every Runner

Through more accurate, real-time analytics, Huawei integrated elite training insights into the Huawei Watch GT Runner 2 in collaboration with Kipchoge's running team, the DSM-Firmenich.

Exercise data is recorded at one-second intervals, allowing for more accurate analysis and speedier modifications. Kipchoge's team helped refine running power, which measures true mechanical output instead of only heart rate. When combined with cadence and stride data, it provides a more comprehensive perspective of effort, efficiency, and form.

The method of delivering the data is equally important to the gadget. The watch becomes a pacing partner instead of a passive tracker when important indicators like pace, effort, and split deviations are revealed in real time.

Accuracy is still crucial when using the Huawei Watch GT Runner 2. The watch enhances signal stability in crowded or blocked areas by combining a 3D floating antenna technology with dual-band satellite support across key international systems.

An industry-first AI-assisted XDR positioning solution leverages motion data to keep tracking steady when signals fail. This guarantees accurate and continuous pace and distance measurements. The Intelligent Marathon Mode uses this accuracy to assist runners through race conditions by integrating physiological inputs, environmental data, and pacing.

Turning Running Data Into a Smart, On-Wrist Coach

Beyond tracking, the Huawei GT Runner 2 offers coaching for training and recuperation. It helps runners avoid overtraining and maintain improvement by recommending rest and intensity adjustments based on heart rate variability, sleep, and training load.

Progress is based on control and consistency, as seen by Kipchoge's career. One stride at a time, this partnership aims to make elite insight accessible to all runners by bringing that same discipline to the wrist.

Experience the Lightest, Most Accurate Titanium Smartwatch Today

The current price of the Huawei Watch GT Runner 2 is PHP 19,999. An in-box fluoroelastomer strap (PHP 1,999), a HUAWEI FreeArc audio wearable (PHP 4,999), a three-month HUAWEI Health+ membership (PHP 387), and a PHP 2,000 trade-in token (redeemable in-store) will all be given to early buyers from April 24 to May 31. A one-year extended warranty and two years of accidental damage protection are also included in the package (PHP 3,999).

From April 24, online shoppers can also claim a PHP 2,500 voucher via the HUAWEI Online Store, or a PHP 1,000 voucher through Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop, available while supplies last.

SM Coastal Cleanups Go Beyond Trash, Teach Communities to Care

In celebration of World Water Day, SM Supermalls, through its corporate social responsibility arm, SM Cares, organized coastal cleanup activities across six locations with seven participating malls across nationwide, reinforcing its long-term commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable waste management in its most-loved malls.

This year’s coastal cleanup emphasized enhanced waste segregation education to deepen understanding among volunteers and communities on proper sorting, recycling, and disposal of collected waste. It also underscored that everyday actions—from responsible waste disposal to recycling—play a critical role in protecting marine ecosystems. 

The coastal cleanup activities took place across SM City La Union, SM City Urdaneta Central, SM City Tanza, SM City Daet, SM City Consolacion, SM Seaside City Cebu, and SM J Mall, bringing together communities in a shared effort to protect local coastal environments and divert waste away from the ocean. 

During the cleanups, collected waste was carefully sorted and categorized, allowing participants to see firsthand the types of materials commonly found in coastal areas—from plastic packaging and beverage containers to other discarded items that threaten marine life and coastal habitats. 

By focusing on waste analysis and segregation, raised awareness on the impact of improperly managed waste and encouraged Filipinos to adopt more responsible environmental practices in their daily lives.

These coastal cleanup activities form part of SM Supermalls’ broader environmental sustainability programs, aligned with the SM Green Movement and the company’s Waste-Free Future campaign. 

“Protecting our coastal and marine environments requires a more proactive, end-to-end approach with the cleanups starting with education, deepening awareness, and sustaining collective action. By helping communities understand the importance of proper waste segregation and responsible waste management, we hope to inspire long-term behavioral change that benefits both people and the planet.” ~Engr. Liza Silerio, Vice President for Corporate Compliance and Program Director for Environment and Sustainability of SM Supermalls

The initiative also highlights the spirit of bayanihan, bringing together mall communities, environmental partners, and local stakeholders in a shared effort to care for the environment.

SM Supermalls, in partnership with the City Government of Caloocan and key national government agencies, officially inaugurated the Government Service Express (GSE) at SM City Caloocan on March 25, 2026. The GSE makes essential public services more accessible, all for the local community through a convenient, people-centered hub in their most-loved SM Supermall.

The opening was led by Chris Martin D. Coquia, Regional Operations Head of SM together with representatives from participating government agencies, including the Caloocan City LGU, PNP, PRC, PhilHealth, SSS, and Pag-IBIG.

The GSE at SM City Caloocan marks the 18th Government Service Express in SM malls nationwide, reinforcing SM Supermalls’ commitment to transforming malls into community hubs that go beyond retail—spaces where everyday needs, essential services, and meaningful experiences come together.

SM Supermalls and the City Government of Caloocan officially inaugurate the Government Service Express at SM City Caloocan, bringing essential public services closer to the community. 

Designed as a one-stop hub, the Government Service Express enables customers to conveniently complete government transactions within the mall environment—supporting parents processing family documents, jobseekers completing employment requirements, entrepreneurs and workers navigating essential services, and everyday citizens seeking efficient and reliable public service.

Coquia, Regional Operations Head of SM Supermalls

Beyond Convenience: Enabling Everyday Progress for Filipino Workers and Families

More than just accessibility, the Government Service Express delivers real, everyday impact—particularly for the working and middle-income segments who rely on efficient, reliable government services to move forward in life.

By bringing together agencies such as the Caloocan Business Permit and Licensing Office, BFP, PNP, PhilHealth, and PRC in one location, GSE allows individuals to:

• Process employment requirements and benefits without taking multiple days off work
• Complete business and professional requirements in a single trip

In select locations, GSEs also serve as access points for free services, including medical assistance and medicines through partner agencies—helping ease the financial burden of everyday needs while maintaining dignity and independence.

Functioning as a modern-day community service hub, GSE complements local government services by providing a more accessible, organized, and customer-friendly environment—especially for urban, working populations who value time, efficiency, and reliability.

Rather than being a space solely for aid, the Government Service Express empowers individuals to participate more actively in the economy—whether by securing employment, accessing benefits, or building their future through government-supported programs.

The launch highlights the strength of public-private collaboration in improving service accessibility and quality. By integrating government offices into the mall, SM Supermalls helps simplify processes, reduce barriers, and create more inclusive access to services that matter in daily life.

Enabling  community opportunities, the joint initiative between SM Offices and National University brought together over 3,500 students, graduates, and industry leaders in a shared mission: turning education into real-world opportunity. 

Now on its third year, BTS also continues its commitment to bridging the gap between the academe and the workplace by connecting NU students and graduates with leading companies across multiple industries.

The whole-day event featured a dynamic mix of career talks, panel discussions, and on-site recruitment activities, creating a space where young professionals could gain insights from industry leaders while exploring immediate employment opportunities. 

More than a traditional job fair, BTS 2026 served as both a learning forum and a hiring platform, encouraging meaningful conversations between aspiring professionals and potential employers. Through these interactions, participants gained valuable career guidance, industry perspectives, and access to real employment pathways. 

Through initiatives like the Bridges to Success Career Fair by SM Offices  and the nationwide #SMJobFair series, SM Supermalls continues to strengthen partnerships with academic institutions, businesses, and government agencies to make employment opportunities more accessible. 

In celebration of International Women’s Month, these initiatives also recognize the increasing participation and leadership of women in the workforce—creating inclusive spaces where every Filipino can pursue their career aspirations. 

SM Supermalls remains committed to championing opportunities for all—because every job seeker deserves a bridge to success.
