About the The 3rd Quezon City International Marathon Race
Considered as the city’s biggest sporting event, QCIM has increasingly become popular since it started in 2009. It is now listed in the calendar of international marathon events by the prestigious U.S. magazine Runner’s World.
This year, the event is expected to attract 15,000 local and international runners. The runners will be passing through challenging and picturesque routes that include Commonwealth Avenue, known as the widest road in the Philippines, the famous University of the Philippines campus and the scenic La Mesa Water Dam and Eco-Park.
The QCIM is a working showcase of the private-public sector partnership between the Quezon City government and the sponsors. It will be the culmination of all the city government’s sports activities for the year. As such, its continuing success is the personal concern of Mayor Herbert Bautista and Vice Mayor Joy Belmonte.
With the full backing of the Quezon City government, QCIM aims to promote Quezon City as a prime sports tourism destination and to advance its green campaign program. Aside from these, the event will also champion the cause of road safety by transforming Commonwealth Avenue into one of the safest and most disciplined highways in the country.
