What is the historical significance of this event?

The Philippine Airlines Manila International Marathon (formerly the Manila International Marathon) is the original and legitimate Manila marathon event, with a history dating back to 1982. The inaugural race was won by two-time Olympic Marathon champion Waldemar Cierpinski with a time of 2:14:27, a course record that has stood as the all-comers best in Philippine marathon history for decades. The event was accepted as a full AIMS (Association of International Marathons) member shortly after its first edition and has served as a cornerstone of Philippine road running for over 44 years.
