RACE RESULT: CONQUER ASSAULT 50 2022: Batangas Cinco Picos – The Last Leg

Finally, the plan of connecting the mountains adjacent to Mt. Batulao happened thru the last part of Conquer Trail Adventure Series 2022 – Conquer Assault 50: Batangas Cinco Picos – The Last Leg, last November 27, 2022. We connected five (5) prominent mountains, Mt. Talamitam, Mt. Lantik, Mt. Toong, Mt. Batulao, and Mt. Tatlong Tilos, traversing three (3) municipalities of Batangas – Nasugbu, Tuy, and Balayan. It was indeed an adventure and challenge bridging dots, sleepless recons, unlimited bushwacking, numerous lost along the way. But beyond all the struggles, the team discovered and unlocked awesome spots the route has to offer.

We started at Bayabasan Elementary School, located at Sitio Bayabasan, Brgy. Aga, Nasugbu, Batangas at 12 midnight. Runners run Mt. Talamitam and Mt. Lantik via Sitio Ludlud until they reached Brgy. Kayrilaw where our AS1 was located. They went back to Bayabasan Elementary School, AS2, via the same route except that they were not climbed Mts Talamitam and Lantik again. The first part served as they warmed-up before going to more daring part.

They entered Brgy Toong, Tuy, Batangas, AS3, via Sitio Kaybibisaya passing Kaytabak Falls and Ambon-ambon. Afterwards, climbed Mt. Toong via a non-traditional trails we decided to include to minimized the risk running to so many cliffs and loosed rocks above the traditional Toong trail. This part, the wind has the tendency to blast hard and fogged the area anytime of the day. Indeed, this part was the most challenging part of the route. 25KM runners also enjoyed this part as they started at 6AM .

After they reached the summit of Mt. Toong, 50KM runners battled the steep downhill going Brgy. San Jose, Tuy, Batangas, AS4. The intermediate cutoff is at 10AM. They passed by the untouched stream system of San Jose where the Barangay and adjacent sitios sourced their water. After having their first major meals on the race, they proceed to Mt. Batulao summit climbing the same steep trails until they reached the junction above. 25KM runners’ next destination was direct Mt. Batulao.

After reaching Mt. Batulao summit, all runners proceed to Kaylaway II Elem. School, AS5, located at Sitio Balagbag, Brgy. Kaylaway, Nasugbu, Batangas. Intermediate cutoff at 2PM. They passed the boundaries of Balayan, Batangas. They had their 2nd major meal of the race, then proceed to the finish line at Aga Elementary School via Mt. Bato or Mt. Tatlong Tilos, runners find it the lightest part of the route being mostly flat and runnable elevations.

10KM runners enjoyed the out and back route passing Santos Farm, Kaytabak Falls and Ambon-ambon until they reach Brgy. Toong in Tuy, Batangas.

It was a fun, adventure, challenged filled race runners should race back and looking forward to, come 2023.

See you again on next year for another edition of CONQUER TRAIL ADVENTURE SERIES.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT!!!!

WE CONQUERED!

RACE RESULT: 2ND CONQUER ASSAULT 50K/ 25K

The final leg of the CONQUER TRAIL ADVENTURE SERIES, the 2nd CONQUER ASSAULT 50K/ 25K, I think was one of the toughest 50K Ultra Trail Race happened in our country. Conducted last April 17, 2017 under the rugged trails of Sierra Madre in Tanay, Rizal on an EL NINO times. The race was started 1AM (should be 12MN) to give consideration to the runners trapped in the heavy traffic on their way to TANAY ADVENTURE CAMP, where the race was started. As expected, more runs during daytime, more exposure to the scorching heat of the sun.

The race provided avenue for the outreach conducted at Brgy. Laiban, where we had an opportunity to give school supplies for the students of Laiban Elementary School from Kindergarten to Grade 6. Although we encountered challenges during the outreach, it did not hinder us to provide the needed support for their learning.

I would like to thank all the runners who joined this event and the following groups, company, individuals for their donations that made our event and outreach a success:

1. Tanay Adventure Camp
2. Tanay Mountaineers
3. Kovea
4. Bounty Mountain
5. Easy Out There
6. Team Maranat Trail Runners
7. Sagip Kagubatan
8. Cubao Zion Fire Medics
9. Wilderness Search and Rescue Team
10. Dr. Lorenzo Mina

Here are the list of the successful runners who completed the race within the prescribed time:
