Details: (Mechanics, Route Map)

What is the course like? 

Runners will pass through OBSTACLE and SPLASH zones with water BOMBS. There will be three OBSTACLE ZONES.

After every obstacle, there will be SPLASH ZONES where you can locate water showers, water guns and water balloons

Runners are also encouraged to load their water guns in splash zones to splash their friends and strangers! Make new friends by targeting them with water while running. AWESOME! Isn't it?

OBSTACLE	LOCATION
1st  LIMBO-ROCK	Quezon Drive (beside Plaza de Benavides)
2nd  GARTER WALL WEB	front of Tan Yan Kee Building

Is the race timed?

Of course! Registration is inclusive of Runner's Guild Race Bib with built-in timing chip! Although, you might end up spending more time on the obstacles having fun than actually race, for at least most of the time. 

Mechanics

This is not just your typical marathon. Though you are still running, you need to finish the Obstacle Zones and pass through the Splash Zones.

To finish the race, you need to do 3 lapses and surpass the obstacle and splash zones.

1.   Runners will be divided into three batches and need to accomplish three laps. (Runners are given the option to choose which batch they prefer to be in.)

2.    Upon water explosion, the first batch of runners starts their bid to win the title.  A “WATER EXPLOSION” will signal the start of the race. The first WATER EXPLOSION for the first batch, a second WATER EXPLOSION for the second batch and so on.

3.    Lap markers will be given after each lap.

LAP MARKERS                  

1^st lap: Red     

2^nd lap: Blue   

3^rd lap: Green             

How to win?

Runners must perform all the obstacle zones. The winner will be determined by whoever runner, whether wet or dry, can cross the finish line first with complete set of lap markers and with the fastest time (timed by Runner's Guild timing chip system). There will be two winners per batch. Exciting! We cannot wait and we are sure so as you! So be the winner we are looking for. Sign up for Lace Up and invite more friends.

This will be FUN. This will be WET. This will be WILD. We promise!
