Never Stop Exploring: The North Face 100

About the North Face 100®

The North Face 100® wants you to run further than you ever have in 2010! Promoting the genuine spirit of exploration since its kick-start in 2008, The North Face 100® is growing into a regional trail running series of six Asia-Pacific countries in its third year: China, Australia, Philippines, Japan, Singapore and Thailand. Whether you are an aspiring trail running beginner or a seasoned racer looking for new challenges, unparalleled experience is offered in each competition of this region's largest trail running series. Push your personal boundaries, and Never Stop Exploring.

Here's the website: http://thenorthface100.com.sg/
For those out there who are interested in running a trail race, you should be looking to register for this annual event scheduled to take place in Singapore on 9 October 2010. It's really a test of personal endurance and there are several categories depending on your level of fitness and wallet size, I suppose.

Early Bird registration Fees are valid till 1st August 2010.

I'd love to join this one day when I'm fitter and can run at least a half-marathon with ease. If I were to join this, I would probably sign up for the 50km Duo and then move up to the 100km Duo (running partners, anyone?). As for doing the 100km Solo along an unknown trail which could darken anytime (it's a race that spans up to 18 hours, after all), let's just safely say that I don't think the race organisers are ever going to invite me to be a participant of that one!
