2GO, the Philippines’ largest integrated logistics provider, marked the start of the Kadayawan Festivities with the Gwapa Dabawenya run on August 9. In partnership with Sunrise Events, the run attracted an impressive 2,200 participants, making it 2GO’s debut fun run in Davao and the inaugural event held on the city’s new coastal road.
The swift sell-out of 2,200 tickets in just two days highlights the excitement for the event and the growing fitness culture in Davao City. The Gwapa Dabawenya run also set the stage for the IRONMAN Davao series, where 2GO played a crucial role by providing logistical support for the event, which occurred over the same weekend.
