Samsung Philippines proudly sponsors two major running events: the Galaxy Watch Manila Marathon and the Galaxy Watch Cebu Half-Marathon. This partnership with RUNRIO, in collaboration with the Department of Tourism, marks Samsung's second year supporting the nation's running culture. The Manila Marathon will be held at the SM Mall of Asia on October 6 and will have runners go through the city's iconic landmarks. While down south, the Cebu Half-Marathon will pass through the scenic Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway on November 24.

To help runners prepare, Samsung launched the Galaxy Watch Run Club, a six-session training program with advanced tracking features using the Galaxy Watch Ultra and Watch7. These watches offer features like Dual Frequency GPS and multi-sport tracking. Club members enjoy exclusive discounts and benefits, including race registration perks for completing training sessions. The club is expanding to Cebu, offering additional rewards for dedicated participants.
