VJ100 Ultra Trail Challenge (VJ100UTC) 2023 takes you on a twisted journey through the many better known as well as some long forgotten trails of the Camp John Hay forest reservation.  Even for those well-versed in these trails, we still have a few gnarly surprises in store!  Beautiful but beastly!  We challenge you to survive this pine-tree-clad paradise.  An endurance run for which no man or woman can fully prepare.  From the soft trails and rolling hills and through countless ascents and descents, you’ll learn the real definition of “challenge”.

Just one question remains.  Are you prepared to suffer?

At Intrepid Spirit we push boundaries.  In pursuit of the impossible, we provide opportunities to transform the “seemingly” impossible into reality.  We believe in limitless potential!

An intrepid spirit is bold, courageous, dedicated, innovative, fearless, generous, resolute and visionary.  So come develop your intrepid spirit.  Take a journey with us to the VJ100UTC, where beauty meets the beast.  An “extremely challenging” route set within the stunning trails of Camp John Hay, Baguio City in the Philippines.

VJ100UTC brings you the best that trail running has to offer.  We make no bones about it.  Trail runners will challenge their physical and mental limits whilst devouring some of the very best trail scenery the world has to offer.  Supporters can soak up the atmosphere in comfort at race headquarters (CAP Convention Centre) or experience the live event virtually.

VJ100UTC’s goal is to challenge the norm, lead the way in trail running event standards and most importantly, greatly improve the overall experience of all participants from runners and supporters through to marshals and support crew.
