This race was done at Sta Elena in Cabuyao Laguna, very near from my place but still I woke up before 4am to prepare. I have to prepare myself for the Trail run at 540AM and my Mt.Bike for the bike race at 09:00AM. This time im joining both trail run and Mt. bike race in one single venue….Certified addict????hahaha
Below were the pictures taken….

This is the only team photo i had after the trail race as I was very busy preparing my equipment for the bike race. I had other photos just before the bike race started. See below:

It was indeed a great race. Trail run is great and tiring, road obstacles were everywhere. The Mt. bike race was also great. Imagine a single track winding, muddy road where you have to struggle to get ahead of others……Interesting….
