CEBU, July 4 (PIA) – In
celebration of its 447th founding anniversary, the province of Cebu will be
holding its first founding anniversary run on August 28.
The race features three categories, namely: Open, Grassroots, and
one for Capitol employees only.
The event, organized by the Cebu Provincial Sports Commission
(CPSC), highlights the participation of young athletes from several
municipalities in the grassroots category as part of the commission’s
grassroots sports development program.
CPSC Executive Director Ramil Abing said that the run started last
year but it was exclusive only to Capitol employees.
“We decided in this founding anniversary that we’ll have an open
category. We intend to do this annually,” Abing said.
Winners of the race will receive cash prizes ranging from P500 to
P10,000, and a commemorative medal for the Top 10 winners of all categories.
Participants may register at the Cebu Provincial Office or at the
Cebu City Sports Center until August 26.
The race will start at 5:00 A.M. at the Cebu Provincial Capitol
Compound.
Registration fee costs P300 for the 10K category and P500 for the
20K category.
