Runners all set for Igacos 50

ALL is set for Igacos 50: a 50-kilometer trail race on October 15 at the Island Garden City of Samal. Spearheaded by Bagani Active Gear and Base Camp Davao, everyone enjoys the beauty of Samal as runners run through the trails.

Registrants are all elites, experienced, avid fans, weekend warriors, first timers or just enjoying the sport as it is. As ultra running becomes more popular, and is longer than the traditional marathon length of 42. 195 kilometers, Bagani Active Gear and Base Camp Davao came to an idea of organizing the event where runners will be more motivated to go further as they captivate the beauty of the trails in the island.

This ultra running race will test each runner’s endurance and resilience. It will also test how far each one can go and it will test the limits not just of the human body but also of the human heart and mind.

Organizers ensured that everything’s prepared and everybody will be safe from the beginning to the end of the race. From the logistics team, medical team and technical team, everything is already set. Tent ar- eas, parking space and displayed food are all available for each participant’s convenience.

Gun starts at 4AM and cut-off time is 12 hours. Big prizes await the winners from both the men and women category. Check out Igacos50 on their social media sites for further details.

The 50-kilometer trail on the Island Garden City of Samal is a challenge to risk-takers as well as a delight to the adventurers as it highlights the island’s beautiful sceneries.
