Its been awhile since I visited Clark Global City, my previous work got me visit the developing city in Pampanga as we also hold one of our offsite offices there. Today, I get to travel again for the much anticipated announcement and conference of De La Salle Alumni Association Pampanga. I’m talking about theTCS Clark Animo International Marathon 2020 on March 8.
I don’t remember my last fun run but I think I look forward to this event because the TCS Clark Animo International Marathon 2020 features Boston Marathon qualifying IAAF-AIMS measured race routes, a 42.2-kilometer marathon, a half-marathon, as well as 10-kilometer, 5-kilometer, and 2.5-kilometer courses. Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is launching a new mobile application for the race.
Here is Sir Abe Tayag sharing the fun run routes.
Following the exhilarating 2019 race that saw 10,000 runners participating, this year’s event will have exciting new features that will complement the internationally certified courses and special activities. This race is presented by Clark Global City, a UDENNA company, and a state-of-the-art central business district development in Mabalacat Pampanga.
First held in 2009 as a fun run in Clark Field, the TCS Clark Animo International Marathon initially had 600 participants, with numbers increasing every year. Organized by DLSAA-P and partnered with TCS, a leading technology company, the event aims to raise funds to support its various community projects on the environment and education.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the first, second, and third placers of the 5-kilometer, 10-kilometer, 21-kilometer, and 42-kilometer distances in the men’s and women’s categories. Likewise, one runner each from the Adult category (18 years old and above) and Kiddie category (17 years old and below) will receive cash incentives.
A special award will also be given to the runner with the best costume.
This year is TCS’ fifth year as title sponsor. The company is set to once again have the largest contingent of runners at the TCS Clark Animo International Marathon, with over 1,000 employee, client and partner runners joining the race. TCS is also staging a first-time global employee contest, set to bring 10 runners to Clark from the company’s locations around the world
