SINGAPORE: Endurance races are all the rage in Singapore and the latest to come on track is an off-road ultra-marathon to push the limits of human endurance.
Organisers said it is the first official event of this nature, where participants are paired in teams of two, each running 50 kilometres.
The North Face 100 event, which will be staged in October, will cover the central catchment area from MacRitchie Reservoir to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.
The route will cover a variety of terrain - from mud roads to tarmac.
Australia was where the series kicked off in May, moving on to the Philippines, then Singapore and finally ending in Beijing in early 2009. - CNA/vm
