Philippine Marathon Majors

Running has evolved into more than just a fitness trend in the Philippines—it has become a lifestyle. The Philippine Marathon Majors captures this energy, inviting local runners to discover the archipelago’s beauty one marathon at a time.

This series—which begins in February 2026—unites eight world-class races across the Philippines. Launched by Singlife Philippines in partnership with RUNRIO, and supported by the Department of Tourism, the PMM is a serious pursuit of excellence. Each course is sanctioned by the Philippine Athletics Track and Field Association, ensuring world-class standards that rival global circuits. For those with elite ambitions, top finishers can secure a spot at the prestigious TCS Sydney Marathon, while qualifying times serve as a gateway to national team selection in events such as the Southeast Asian Games.

Beyond the medals and recognitions, the PMM aims to inspire a healthier nation and position the Philippines as a top-tier destination for the global running community.
