Our Story

Our Journey

Here for the Long Run

The story began with a Spartan Race. They were both part of F45 and ended up in the same car pool for the weekend.

What caught Arvee's attention first was how organized Katrina was. After the race, she already had a spreadsheet for shared expenses.

Later, Katrina posted an Adidas discount in the group chat. Arvee saw a chance to spend more time with her, and that shopping trip became the first of many budol adventures.

Over time, they trained together and encouraged each other through early morning and long runs. They realized that the best part wasn't the finish lines—it was having each other along the way.

One big milestone was Katrina's 20-mile long run while training for the Mt. Fuji Marathon. After that run, Arvee knew he wanted to ask the biggest question of his life. Katrina said yes.

Looking back, it feels fitting that their story started with a race. And that's exactly how they hope to spend the rest of their lives: here for the long run.

Arvee & Katrina

"We love because He first loved us."
