Thousands of participants joined the 2013 Merrell Adventure Run

Last April 27, thousands of runners joined the Merrell Adventure Run held in Mt. Sinai, Pitong Bukawa, San Mateo, Rizal. Many of the runners considered it as the toughest outdoor trail run ever.

Willy Rotich won 1st place in the 21K Men’s Category with Rafael Poliquit and Bonifacio Monjas winning 2nd and 3rd Place respectively. While Miscelle Gibuena won 1st place in the 21K Women’s Category followed by Luisa Raterta and Janette Agura.

The Merrell Adventure Run is now on its fourth year. It is the pioneer in adventure trail running packed with dirt roads, flowing streams, river crossings, rock scrambling, and uphill and downhill paths.

Check out the photos from the event and see how challenging and fun trail runs are. Watch out for the Merrell Adventure Run 2014.
