Pho3nix Club has concluded its first-ever VIP event at the 2023 BMW Berlin Marathon, with members racing and raising funds for the Pho3nix Foundation.
The Pho3nix Club is a first-of-its-kind membership platform that offers endurance training resources, access to bucket-list sports events, and the ability to fundraise and contribute for sport nonprofit Pho3nix Foundation to supercharge its initiatives that empower kids to do sport and help the next generation of young talent emerge around the world.
Pho3nix Foundation chairman and founder Sebastian Kulczyk raced alongside Pho3nix Club project manager Rebekah Bruhwiller and club members Tim and Maurice. Swept up in the festive and celebratory atmosphere befitting a World Marathon Major in the heart of beautiful and historical Berlin, Maurice clocked a 30-minute new personal best, while Sebastian, Rebekah, and Tim all ran together and finished in 3 hours and 43 minutes.
“Whether it’s running or triathlon or any other endurance sport, it’s all about having fun and enjoying yourself,” said Sebastian. “And that’s also the beauty of all these events: we have fun before, during, and after for sure.”
Aside from achieving their target times and experiencing the joy sport has to offer, their racing benefits a good cause. The Pho3nix Club VIP package to the Berlin Marathon features an earmarked donation to the Pho3nix Foundation, which will go a long way in expanding its presence and work around the world, with events and programs across the Asia Pacific, Africa, and Europe such as kids triathlon series Pho3nix Kids and the Pho3nix Athlete Program providing much-needed funding for Paris 2024 hopefuls.
The VIP package also included guaranteed entry, a 12-week marathon training plan, three nights’ accommodation, and exclusive Pho3nix Club marathon singlet or shirt and trucker hat.
Pho3nix Club will next descend upon landmark gravel triathlon event SGrail in Girona, Spain, a VIP training camp in Phuket, Thailand leading into the Laguna Phuket Triathlon, and the World Marathon Major race in Tokyo in 2024.
