Del Carmen to host Siargao International Marathon

​(May 17, 2018)

With Siargao rapidly becoming as the leading global sports destination with the World Surfing Cup in the town of Gen. Luna and the International Gamefishing Competition in the municipality of Pilar, here comes another giant event that will surely excite athletes and sprinters.

​Mayor JR Coro recently organized a very successful press conference as the proud host of this year’s International Marathon on July 14.

“Calling all eco-warriors, runners and fitness enthusiasts! Up for a destination race this summer? Save the date,” relayed Pinoy Fitness online.

Mayor Coro expressed his sincerest gratitude to Gov. Sol Matugas and her better-half, Gob Lalo for the unconditional assistance and absolute support extended in collaboration with First Legislative District Cong. Francisco Jose ‘Bingo’ Matugas II.

“We expect 2,000 or more participants. Men and women are heartily invited,” said Mayor Coro.

On his part, Cong. Matugas said that his advocacy dubbed Sports Kontra Droga develops a way of thinking and state of mind where athletic exercises and physical games are paramount and effective deterrent against addiction to vices.

“An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure. Siargao is now universally recognized as the perfect venue to showcase international events. Our showing has improved in the world circuit, with the upgrade of ranking that we receive in the field of surfing. Let us strive to protect the paradise island so we can enjoy the place,” explained Cong. Bingo.
​

It was revealed that Runrio, just like what happened last year during the first-ever marathon to save the mangrove, will facilitate the 3K|5K|10K|21K|42K categories.

Registration Fee for the 3K division is pegged at P550 while for 5K, its P650. For 10K, it is P850; P1400 for the 21K and P2500 for the 42 K, respectively.
​

Gun Start would be as follows: 5:20AM for 3K, 5:10 am for 5K, 5:00 am for 10K and 4:00 am for both 21K and 42K.

 Marathon is inclusive of a Bib, Race Shirt/Singlet and Loot Bag. 21K and 42K gets a Finisher Medal and Finisher Shirt. Registration is online.
