One route, four movements, one city. How PP City Run became the biggest community running event in Cambodia.

The first PP City Run had 120 participants and a hand-drawn route map. The 2026 edition — presented by Manulife — sold 680 spots across 5KM and 10KM distances before early-bird pricing closed.
'Koh Norea was a deliberate choice,' says the organiser. 'Most run events in Phnom Penh happen at Olympic Stadium or the riverside. We wanted somewhere that felt like the city was opening up — new district, new energy.'
The 10KM route passes through four distinct neighbourhoods, each with its own character. Water stations are placed at the 2KM, 5KM, and 8KM marks. A photo spot at the 3KM bridge has become the event's unofficial icon.
Registrations for the 2026 edition are open on Kehla. Early bird pricing at $25 runs until April 26 — normal rate is $29. The race is chip-timed, with results posted live on the day.
