Second Edition, Following a 14,000-Runner Debut
The Clark leg takes place at Filinvest Mimosa Plus Events Grounds, Clark Avenue, Angeles, Pampanga on 30 August 2026, with distance options of 1K, 3K, 5K, 10K and 21K. [1] This is the second edition of the event, following an inaugural 2025 EastWest Dream Run that drew around 14,000 runners nationwide -- a strong signal of demand for the series overall, even if the Clark leg specifically is newer.
Bank-Backed Production
The Clark leg is organised by RunRio in partnership with EastWest Bank, with Quest Plus Conference Center Clark listed as the event's hotel partner. [1] The race village includes cooling zones, a recovery lounge, and sponsor activations, based on the format used for the Manila leg of the same 2026 series -- a fuller amenity set than most standalone community races in this research batch.
The Course Sits in Clark Freeport Territory
Filinvest Mimosa sits within the broader Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone, a redeveloped former US Air Force base now serving as a hub for business, aviation and leisure in Central Luzon. [2] That gives the venue solid road infrastructure and event-hosting experience, even for a still-young race series.
Watch the Schedule -- It's Already Moved Once
The Clark leg date has changed at least once: organisers originally floated 24 May 2026 before settling on 30 August 2026. [1] As of this research, no independent participant reviews or race reports for the Clark leg specifically were found -- a race-listing aggregator (World's Marathons) explicitly shows 'No reviews yet' for this event, consistent with it being a newer addition to the series.
Should You Run It?
If a bank-backed, well-resourced race with a strong debut track record and an unusually wide 1K-to-21K distance spread appeals, the EastWest Dream Run's Clark leg on 30 August 2026 is a solid pick. Just confirm the date directly with organisers before booking travel, given the one prior reschedule.
