DAVAO CITY — Gaisano Market has unlocked fresh race bibs for its upcoming Run for Greatness after the initial wave sold out rapidly. The newly reopened slots cover the 5KM and 10KM categories, giving Dabawenyos a second chance to join the October 18 event at Azuela Cove.
A Second Chance for Runners
Registration for the first batch closed faster than expected, prompting organizers to respond to the clamor from eager participants. The overwhelming demand demonstrated the city’s growing appetite for community‑driven fitness events. Gaisano Market quickly moved to add capacity so no one would be left on the sidelines.
The reopened categories are expected to fill just as quickly, and runners are urged to secure their spots without delay. The race has become a must‑join activity for families, weekend warriors, and seasoned distance runners alike. The second wave ensures that everyone still has a shot at crossing the finish line.
Race Details and Categories
The Run for Greatness features four distance options to suit all fitness levels. Casual joggers and beginners can take on the 3KM fun run, while the 5KM and 10KM categories offer a manageable challenge for intermediate runners. For those seeking a true endurance test, the 16KM race provides a longer, more demanding route.
Each registration includes a complete race kit featuring an official event shirt, a race bib, a finisher’s medal, and an exclusive Gaisano Market loot bag. Participants will experience a professionally organized road race with hydration stations and medical support along the course. The event is designed to celebrate health, community, and personal achievement.
