The Corregidor International Half-Marathon is aimed to become one of the premiere and much-awaited races in the country. It wll be hekd annually in the historic and scenic Corregidor Island on a December weekend, making it thus the final major race of the year. This year, it is set to fire-off on December 19.
This will be an extraordinary opportunity for passionate runners to set new norm for personal achievement as finishing the race will be akin to recapitulating a fortress that is home to the resilient and valiant.
Given that the size of participation will be limited to not more than 800 runners, it will be positioned to attract mainly serious runners, recreational and elite level athletes alike, who have the most likelihood of being opinion-leaders or well-associated in the running community.
All these factors are intended to put premium on Corregidor International Half-Marathon, which is to become, eventually, the most sought-after major race in the country.
