Like every year, 2016 will also witness the Annual Guam International Marathon. Put on you running shoes and get ready to run at Guam’s premier running event. The event is being organized by Guam Visitors Bureau, along with Pacific Islands Club, Guam and United Airlines. This year’s event will mark the 4th Annual Guam International Marathon. The event is scheduled on Sunday, April 10, 2016. The event will culminate at the GIM Finish Line and with the Hafa Adai Finisher’s Festival, right along the beautiful Ypao Beach and the scenic Tumon bay. The event includes 5K, 10K, Half Marathon (13.1 miles) and Full Marathon (26.2 miles) race distances.

A scenic race course, the chance to run with thousands of other runners from across the globe and being part of such a global event, cannot afford to be part of such a chance, isn’t it? The race, which starts at 3:00 am from the Gov. Joseph A Flores Memorial Park, will be chip timed on an individual basis, making it easier for everyone to know their race finish time. There will also be a finisher’s Beach Party at 6:30 a.m.at Gov. Joseph A. Flores Memorial Park (Ypao Beach), Tumon. The GIM marathon course has been certified by AIMS (Association of International Marathons and Distance Races) and IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federation), and also is a qualifier for the Boston Marathon.
