Pink Run 2025 fires off Oct. 5

A record-breaking 4,511 runners, including the sensational 76-year old 21k runner Tatay Quiruben, are taking part in this year’s Alturas Pink Run, scheduled October 5, 2025, at Island City Mall.

Aside from local runners, a group or contingents of runners and different running clubs from other places outside Bohol also registered in the prestigious charity run whose aim is to raise awareness about breast cancer and at the same time generate funds for the patients.

The participants will be running in three different categories — 5k, 10k, and 21k, with route winding its way from the Island City Mall as the starting line to the different turning points at lower Sto. Nino St., near Segundo Lim cockpit arena for 5k; Iglesia ni Cristo church in Brgy. Manga for 10k; and near Abatan bridge in Brgy. Lincod, Maribojoc for 21k.

The Alturas Group of Companies, through its Alay Marcela Foundation, expresses its heartfelt gratitude to all the registrants/ participants who in one way or another help our 35 beneficiaries this year.

In the “Pink Run” 2022, around 1,600 runners had joined the benefit run, with the gross proceeds of P200,000 donated to the 20 beneficiaries, mostly breast cancer patients, who received cash assistance worth P10,000 each.
