Dear Fellow runners,
In 2008, we started a revolution by launching a World Class
international standard race in the Philippines called the Condura run. With the
soul of being a “run by runners for runners” and the vision of being “the
Premier Marathon Event in the Philippines and Asia Pacific”, the Condura Skyway
Marathon became the most loved, the most anticipated and the biggest marathon
event in the Philippines.
But what made this
run extra special is that you, our runners ran to champion environmental causes
in Tubbataha, the Dolphins of Bohol, the Whale sharks of Donsol and the
mangroves of Zamboanga de Sibugay. You also championed social causes through
the Hero Foundation where we sent hundreds of children of our fallen soldiers
to school.
After 8 years and
7 marathons, with over 100 thousand participants from all over the country and
from the 4 corners of the World, we asked ourselves 1 question - How can we
make the marathon much better in order to stay true to our vision? And the
answer is to postpone the 2017 Marathon in order to give us more time to plan
and execute a bigger and better marathon in the future.
We would like to
thank our partners, Skyway, Asics, Asia Brewery, Run Rio and Hero Foundation
for their support through the years. This race would not be possible without
you. We would also like to thank our runners for their loyalty and support and
for more importantly running to make our country a better place one step at a
time!
Looking forward to
seeing you all in the future Condura Marathons.
