The return of the All Women’s Ultramarathon (AWUM X) in Cebu highlights the growing presence of women in endurance sports. Covering a 50 km route across the Cebu–Cordova Link Expressway, the event brought together runners, volunteers, and supporters in a powerful display of community and resilience. More than a race, AWUM reflects how women continue to claim space in running and challenge long standing gender norms. In today’s evolving conversations on equality, women’s events like this remain both meaningful and necessary.
