Sierra is one of my favorite trail playground.  It has a clean and fresh air and surroundings. There’s that scenic early morning sea of clouds and there’s the variety of trail surface and terrain you could play with. That’s a playground you can enjoy too with Pinoy Trails on December 10, 2016 for Sierra Trail Adventure Race 2016. #PinoyTrails #STAR2016

Sierra Trail Adventure Race 2016

I’ve done the Sierra loop several times already and I always appreciate the place.  The highway prides itself with the high vantage point to see the early morning sea of clouds or at times, it looks like a river since you can see it practically move from one mountain to another.  There’s the thrilling downhill ride on different trail surfaces that will bring out the kid in you.  There’s also the challenging climb that would challenge your quads and lung capacity.

Pinoy Trails and Rundezvous presents Sierra Trail Adventure Race 2016 happening at Tanay, Rizal on December 10, 2016. This is a race meant for those who like to start their trail adventures up until the seasoned veterans who are looking for the next challenging climb to conquer.  There’s a 8K distance for newbies or those who want to run it short and sweet. There’s the 12K distance for 12K runners and there’s the 18K distance (solo and buddy), who would be in for a complete trail experience with its descents and ascents as well as being in refreshing forest trails, river and stream crossing and a long climb back to the main road.

#STAR2016 will make you fall in love with the trails.  Register begins on August 30, 2016 and see you there.
