Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon 2017
Skechers Performance’s first major race title sponsorship is dubbed as the Skechers Performance™ Los Angeles Marathon. The 32nd edition of the annual race will take place on March 19, 2017.
The running event is known for it’s iconic “Stadium to the Sea” course that begins at the Dodger Stadium and ends near Santa Monica Pier, taking runners on a scenic tour of the best landmarks in Los Angeles in California.
This year, Skechers Performance is bringing in delegates from different countries, including Gerald Anderson as the Philippine delegate, to join the race. More than 25,000 runners, both amateur and professional, from the US and different parts of the world descend upon the City of Angels every year to participate in the popular marathon.
Gerald has turned his interest in running into a sport he actually trains for. In fact, he has joined several races in the past including the 2015 ASTC Asian Triathlon Cup where he finished his first triathlon. Recently, he participated in the Powerman Duathlon Asian Invitational held last November and the Powerman Duathlon Pilipinas World Series last December 2016 where he won 4th place and 6th place respectively under the Male 24-29 Age Group.
Gerald is thrilled to be part of a brand he actually believes in and is known for award-winning shoes that deliver comfort, performance, and style.
Gerald will be geared with Skechers Performance to help him reach beyond his limits in the upcoming prestigious marathon.
Skechers Performance shoes feature the brand’s innovative Mid-foot Strike or M-Strike Technology. The signature technology promotes midfoot striking, helping runners go faster by minimizing ground contact time as the middle of the foot impacts the ground and transitions to forefoot for immediate toe off—allowing the wearer to Go Like Never Before.
This year, Skechers Performance is releasing a new and improved shoe line-up to let you go beyond your limits. Watch out for Skechers GOrun 5, Skechers GOrun Forza 2, and Skechers GOrun Ride 6.
