Can’t Buy Me Love actor Donny Pangilinan took a break from his busy schedule to squeeze in some sibling bonding and quality time with his sister, Hannah Pangilinan, who is joining the Boston Marathon.“BOSTON INCOMING! I’m starting a new mini series leading up to the Boston Marathon called #TAKBOSTON,” began Hannah in a reel she posted on her social media account a week ago.“Episode one calls for a long run with help from my brother @donny and friend @wil_dasovich up and down Anilao’s hilly but beautiful roads,” she shared.Two weeks before the race, Hannah kept herself busy building up her stamina for the long race ahead. The run itself was a whopping 447m long, so she reminded her viewers about the importance of warming up.“I’ve been dealing with an overtrained left leg, so I’ve been doing a lot of warm up and rehabilitation exercises so I can get stronger before the race,” she shared.Hannah kept a steady pace for the first leg, which she admitted is tricky to do when running downhill. After the first 5 kilometers, she invited her brother, Donny, to run alongside her and keep her company.“Our guest for the next 5k,” she announced, pointing to Donny.An athlete in his own right, Donny kept Hannah company until she reached 10km. By that time, the sun was already setting.“We’re at 10k. It’s getting dark,” Hannah commented. “My legs feel good. I’m so happy to be running with someone. It’s so much better than running alone!”She also found a running buddy in her friend and content creator Wil Dasovich. The two took a breather and a quick water break at a roadside sari-sari store when they hit 16 kilometers. Hannah and Wil were in high spirits when they went on a sprint to finish 18 kilometers.<iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5PsH_OxyiA/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A130743.80000001192%2C%22ls%22%3A11461.700000047684%2C%22le%22%3A12067.100000023842%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="881" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>Hannah is one of the five children of Maricel Laxa and Anthony Pangilinan. At a young age, she is already a content creator.“At best, I’m a film enthusiast who dabbles in a lot of hobbies. There are days when I am recording a podcast, and other days when I spend the day swept by a book. I’m always singing my own background music and if not, I’m listening to a podcast to fill that void,” she introduces herself on her website.A young lady of many interests, her latest goal appears to be the Boston Marathon, an annual marathon race hosted by several cities and towns in greater Boston in eastern Massachusetts, United States. Ranked as one of the world’s most prestigious road racing events, taking part in the Boston Marathon is definitely not a walk in the park.Hannah just uploaded the third episode of her #TAKBOSTON series yesterday, April 8, where she admitted not always being in the mood to work out.“Looking at my training from a bird’s eye view, it’s encouraging to see that even the easy and lazy days COUNT,” posted Hannah. “With consistency over time, muscle memory can take over and prove your mind wrong. that NO this workout isn’t impossible and YES you’re far more capable than you give yourself credit for.”She goes on to give credit to small actions.“Being always motivated is a myth for me,” she admitted. “but there is so much power in mere action. Mini-actions just like saying yes to starting cab catapult you into a better day, night, race, altogether. what’s that ONE decision that you’ve just got to make?”The Boston Marathon is considered the world’s oldest annual marathon and is part of the 6 World Marathon Majors. Hannah is set to join its 128th race, scheduled for April 15, 2024.
