Celebrating six decades of athletic triumphs and enduring commitment to fitness, MILO Active Pilipinas is set to ignite the competitive spirit of the nation with its National Marathon 2024. As a testament to its legacy, the MILO Marathon enters its 60th year with the promise to ‘Bring Out the Champion in Every Filipino’.

The marathon’s journey continues through to the ‘Ber’ months, known for the start of the festive season in the Philippines. Runners will set their pace in the verdant landscapes of Cavite (Vermosa) on September 22 and then in the culturally rich city of Tagbilaran on September 29. The series carries on to Roxas on October 6, weaving through the ‘Seafood Capital of the Philippines’.
