Incoming: Immuvit Fearless Challenge: No Surrender

Fearless Challenge

Bring in the heavy artillery as Immuvit launches its Fearless Challenge which is a trilogy of Extreme Races that won’t just challenge your running prowess but your overall fitness level.  Three races that’s meant to challenge the participant in different ways starting with an obstacle trail run at La Mesa Nature Reserve on August 26, 2012, aptly called No Surrender which is patterned from Spartan and Tough Mudder Races in the US.  The second one is a Metafit Race called No Excuses which is a road race in Quezon City Circle with meta-fitness challenges as part of the race and will be held on September 15, 2012.  To cap the trilogy is an obstacle run at Nuvali on October 6, 2012 which would have an 8K and 16K category and will be incorporating vertical climbs along the race course.

No Surrender

Tough Mudder Video

Imagine a race like that where you run, you crawl, you overcome obstacles and you try to survive and finish even if it seems insurmountable there’s just NO SURRENDER.  A Spartan and Tough Mudder patterned race is happening at La Mesa Nature Reserve on August 26, 2012 brought to you by Immuvit  and conceptualized by Immuvit brand ambassador Coach Jim Saret.  The NO SURRENDER Leg gives you 5 obstacles in the 10K distance and 3 obstacles in the 5K distance happening after every 1.5 kilometer intervals.  So far only two obstacles has been revealed which is the military wall and the fire jump. The rest will be surprises.  And just in case, you’re having second thoughts if you are indeed tough enough for this one.  Think about this, Coach Jim is even confident that his students in the biggest loser can finish the course.  So are you up for the challenge???

Challenge Accepted

With Coach Jim Saret

I’m taking the Immuvit Fearless Challenge!!!  In fact at first, I just wanted to do a 5K distance but seeing how exciting the obstacles are and some would even be surprises so I’m joining the tougher 10K distance.  Am I ready?  I don’t know. I’m always a work-in-progress when it comes to running and fitness cause I’ve a lot of room to improve.  After a tough obstacle trail run like Immuvit  fearless challenge, it’ll make you stronger for the NO ESCUSES and NO TURNING BACK legs but I guess that is a story at another time.
