The Community Run aims to bring anyone and everyone to a trail experience to remember.  The good news is it is FREE.

Choose your distance:

• 3k Road to Trail (50m elevation gain)
• 5K Trail Walk (150 elevation gain)
• 10K Trail Challenge (220m elevation gain)

We will have lead runners to help everyone navigate the trails.

Experience off road running, hike and walk through the scenic beginner trail in Araneta Trails Maarat. Challenge yourself to run uphill and downhill safely with your pace group. Take pics, smile and have fun. Refreshment awaits at the finish line.

Participants must bring at least 250ml water for 5k and shorter or 500ml for 10k and their favourite snack (trail food). Everyone must have a whistle.

Note: Participants are responsible in ensuring they are physically fit for the activity.

This is an easy, beginner friendly community event!  However, we wish to remind the following basics when you go out on the trails.

1. Plan Your Route: Know the trail, its length, and difficulty.  Check the map above.  The route shows the difficulty level of the trail.  Please ensure that you are physically prepared for it.  We will have lead runners and pacers, marshals and medics on the route.  The course will be marked and there will be signages installed.  Please stay on course.

2. Check the Weather: Dress appropriately and be prepared for changes.  

3. Stay Hydrated: Bring enough water and maybe an electrolyte drink or light snacks.  It will be mandatory for this event to bring a 250ml water (can be in a bottle or a pack) for 5K and a 500Ml for 10k.  

4. Wear Proper Gear: Trail running shoes, moisture-wicking clothing, and a hat or visor and a rain jacket depends on the weather.

5. Pack Essentials: First aid kit, map, phone, and a small snack.  A WHISTLE is mandatory so you can use this as signal if needed.

6. Run Smart: Start slow, watch your footing, and be aware of wildlife.  This is a COMMUNITY RUN so we will go together.  Enjoy it, take photos, pace with other members, speed up with caution if you feel like it but be aware of the markings and the signages so you won't get lost.

7. Leave No Trace: Respect nature, stick to the trails, and carry out all trash.

8.  Check in and check out at the start.  Participants will all be issued a Timing Bracelet.  This will ensure that we are able to track you as you leave the starting point and comes back to the finishing point.  Kindly report back to the marshal and your lead runner if you plan to stop.  We always ensure everyone is back safely and happy.  :)  Participants who will be accounted as did not finish but did not report will be traced and may trigger rescue and search operation so it is important that we are able to account for everyone.  

Happy trails!
