JOEL Orogan and Maricar Camacho were a cut above the rest as 10,000 runners took Makati City by storm in the ArmyNavy Run 2026 on Sunday.
Orogan was the king of the half-marathon, with a time of 1:17:25, way ahead of Mark Anthony Oximar (1:23:15) and Samuel Ranque (1:28:25) in the men’s division.
Camacho, meanwhile, ruled the women’s 21K distance, finishing in 1:32:37, followed by Jennie Gutang (1:48:08) and Bernadette Sales (1:48:50).
It was a fun-filled race organized by RUNRIO and has Nature’s Spring as the official hydration partner, with a portion of the proceeds allocated to support the initiatives of the Ayala Foundation and Tuloy Foundation.
After the sold-out race, the finishers were also treated to ArmyNavy classic burger and a 500ml Libertea Zero–a newly-launched, freshly brewed tea with zero added sugar, on top of their medals and loot bags.
Blademore Macaraeg reigned supreme in the men’s 10K race with a time of 40:08, with Andrew Pope (41:54) and Nelson Reodique (42:41) in close pursuit, while Marikit Gomez finished first in the women’s side with a time of 50:52, along with Pauline Abril-Tabirara (52:56) and Shayne Lugay (56:05).
Mitsuru Watanabe topped the men’s 5K with 17:28, ahead of Rasmus Lanxe (18:45) and Rolando Cañete Jr. (21:22), as Eloisa Cusi clocked in at 19:40 to win the women’s side, with Len Baguis (23:15) and Ana Adriano (23:38) making it to the podium.
