Philippine
Mountain Games
One mountain, two disciplines, two days. Ride it on Saturday. Run it on Sunday.
Two races, one mountain, back to back.
Most mountain events ask you to pick a discipline. This one doesn't. Saturday belongs to the bikes. Sunday belongs to the runners. The course runs through the same highland country both days, above the Ambuklao reservoir in Bokod, Benguet.
Enter one. Or enter both, and go for The Crown.
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12
Mountain bike
Sixty kilometers of Cordillera fire road and singletrack, with two thousand meters of climbing stacked into it. Cold start, long grind, a descent you'll remember.
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13
Trail ultra
Fifty kilometers on foot through pine ridge and highland barangays, starting in the dark. The classic Cordillera distance, run on the weekend the mountains are at their coldest.
The Crown
Finish Saturday's 60km on the bike and Sunday's 50km on foot, and you've taken The Crown. Two disciplines, two days, one mountain, no recovery week in between.
It's the hardest way through this weekend, and it's the only reason some people come.
Ambuklao, Bokod, Benguet.
High country above the Agno River, a few hours north of Manila by way of Baguio. Pine ridges, terraced slopes, and the reservoir sitting in the middle of all of it. December mornings here are genuinely cold.
