Run United goes the 42Km distance. Can you imagine that? And just so you know this is the first ever RUN UNITED PHILIPPINE MARATHON that everyone has been buzzing and so more and ore runners are so excited to participate in the newest addition to the Philippine's running calendar which will be on October 28, Sunday. 

To make this a sure fire success, Unilab Active Health (ULAH) and Runrio as its partner organizer are tediously doing everything to make sure everything is under control. 

Above photo shows the Run United Philippine Marathon 21K and 42K Finisher’s Medal. Colorful, big and an awesome bragging right! Excited to know who will bring home these medals.

So what do runners expect for this marathon? Runners will surely get a memorable start and finish at Run United Philippine Marathon--complete with red carpet, marching bands, exclusive finish arc, colorful balloons, video/photo shots, and the other surprises.There will also be Unilab Active Health Village which  will be classified in four categories: Active Kids Zone, Health, Sports, & Leisure, Runners’ Lounge and iConnect. Expect that there will be separate categories for Filipino and foreign winners, to give credit or recognition to more runners.
