Singlife Philippines, the country’s leading digital life insurer, is officially putting the nation on the global running map as the Title Sponsor of the Philippine Marathon Majors (PMM) 2026—the first nationwide marathon series of its kind and a landmark addition to the world’s premier marathon calendar.
Now branded as the Singlife Philippine Marathon Majors, the series will unite eight marquee races across the country, with Singlife headlining five key events in Iloilo, Davao, Clark, Cagayan de Oro, and Cebu.
More than a sponsorship, the partnership introduces a game-changing benefit for runners: every registered participant will automatically receive Singlife insurance coverage as part of their race registration. Coverage kicks in even before race day and extends with post-event offers, including Singlife Credits—digital credits that can be used to pay premiums or top up existing policies through the Singlife Plan & Protect App—as well as exclusive rewards for podium finishers.
The move also accelerates Singlife’s geo-expansion strategy, bringing its brand beyond Metro Manila and into the everyday lives of Filipinos nationwide. With thousands of runners and spectators expected across multiple regions, the partnership ensures lasting visibility and deeper engagement with communities throughout the country.
“Running is more than a sport—it’s discipline, preparation, and a way of life,” said Lester Cruz, CEO of Singlife Philippines. “By partnering with the Philippine Marathon Majors, we’re championing the health, resilience, and aspirations of every runner, while sparking new conversations on financial independence. Our goal is to make insurance not just necessary, but relevant and inspiring—seamlessly integrated into the passions that matter most to Filipinos. This milestone is as much about protecting lives as it is about celebrating the spirit of the marathon.”
Rio de la Cruz, President and CEO of RUNRIO Inc., organizer of Trilogy Run Asia and the team behind PMM, echoed this sentiment: “This is a watershed moment for Philippine running. With Singlife as our Title Sponsor, we’re not just organizing races—we’re elevating them to world-class standards, while giving runners the unique advantage of insurance coverage built into their journey.”
With the Singlife Philippine Marathon Majors 2026, the Philippines takes a decisive step onto the world stage of running, inspiring not just faster finishes but stronger, more financially empowered lives.
