MUSPO Ultra opens for registration
The first Filipino points race in the 2022 Asia Trail Master Championship series takes place in Mindanao in the south. MUSPO Ultra is a new entry, too, after a successful stint as a Candidate Race back in 2019. MUSPO takes you the hilly terrains of Mount Musuan of Maramag and around the majestic Lake Apo of Valencia. With about 650 meters of elevation, Musuan Peak gives you a panoramic view of the province. Lake Apo gives you a mystical feel of nature with the lake and nearby mountain ranges.
The event offers 4 distances, but it’s the 100km that matters for ATM points, both for the Championship contenders and the Grandmaster Quest challengers.
The trails are quite fast and runable with some portions that are technically challenging. On paper a nice mixture that should attract everyone. Valencia is kind of sandwiched between Mindanao’s bigger cities Davao and Cagayan de Oro. Those are also the international arrival options, particularly Davao.
Registration is open for the event now, and pay attention, slots are limited still!
