'The Warrior 50' ultra marathon slated September 10

- Caecent No-ot Magsumbol -

CEBU, Philippines - Another ultra marathon will take place in Cebu with the staging of frontRUNNER Magazine’s “The Warrior 50” at Be Hotel in Lapu-Lapu City on September 10.

 The event is dubbed as “run hard, party harder” as organizers want to make it a fun race intended mainly for beginners.

 frontRUNNER’s Jonel Mendoza said more runners are getting interested in ultra marathon that is why they are organizing this event that covers 53 kilometers with a cut off time of nine hours.

 “It’s a beginners ultra because it’s a basic ultra that will pass through Cordova, Lapu-Lapu, Consolacion, Liloan, Mandaue and back at Be Hotel. “We decided to shorten the cut off time kasi madali lang naman.”

 Registration fee is pegged at P900 inclusive of Rogen-e vitamins worth P650, meal and drinks during the party at the beach front and a finisher’s shirt and medal.

 Entry forms are available at Runnr in Ayala Center.

 So far, around 60 runners have confirmed their entry including from Manila, Davao, and Cagayan de Oro.

 After "The Warrior 50", a more daring race will be held in Cebu - the 100-kilometer battle from Bogo to Cebu City.

 Billed as the Cebu Century Challenge, the race will be on November 19.

The CCC may be the longest, yet it is just a prelude to Cebu’s toughest action ever, a 160-kilometer action set next year. (FREEMAN)
