Pascua, Suarez chase GWR marks

MANILA, Philippines — The Pilipinas Obstacle Sports Federation (POSF) isn’t slowing down despite the pandemic.

POSF president Atty. Al Agra yesterday said they have lined up several events for the national team the whole year including one where Kevin Pascua and Rochelle Suarez will try to officially establish new Guinness World Records (GWR) in an event set April 9-10 at the Arcovia City in Pasig.

Pascua is the fastest man in the 100-meter Obstacle course with a time of 29.92 seconds while Suarez tops in the women’s side with a clocking of 49.70 seconds.

If the two, who are both Southeast Asian Games gold medalists, could register faster times in Arcovia, they would be officially enlisted as world-record holders in the GWR record books.

“After 42 firsts in the five years since the POSF was established in January 2017, we at POSF are setting our sights for more firsts in the next five months and the next five years,” said Agra in yesterday’s presser at the Rizal Park Hotel.
