Alden Meneses

Inspired to run.

A long time fan and friend of Real Life, Alden has had many firsts with us, starting with our first Race for Life in 2009. Since then, he has been a big part of planning and executing our annual Race.

Alden started running four years ago upon the incitement of his gym buddies. He tried it once and found he enjoyed the challenge of going against the limits he set for himself. He launched his serious running “career” completing a 21-kilometer race in Manila. Inspired to do more, Alden joined a 42-k marathon in Hong Kong, Australia’s Gold Coast and Malaysia. This will be his first time to join an ultra marathon but is confident he will finish because of his reasons for running in the first place: 150 young men and women who are the scholars of Real Life.
