The race in SM City Davao for the Davao leg, on the other hand, had nine categories excluding 500M.

This year, runners were introduced to new distances as 7-Eleven added the 32K category in all locations. In Cebu, the 500M category was launched this year while the 10K Buddy category was provided as a new option for runners in Davao.

“7-Eleven Run series is regarded as one of the most anticipated marathons in the country today,” Jose Victor Paterno, President, and CEO of Philippine Seven Corporation said. “This year, we’ve made it more interesting by adding more categories to better fit the demand of every type of enthusiast—from the recreational runner to the professional athlete. We believe that by doing a sporting event like the 7-Eleven Run, we can contribute to the growth and development of Filipino sportsmen who are well on their way to bring pride to our country.”
