This is one race that makes any summer race looks easy and of course if you think the Singapore Version of The North Face 100 is tough enough, think again.
An eight stage race of a total of 142miles. The total estimate ascent is 14,000m (45,930ft) and 13,300km (43,630ft) for descent.
The race is held yearly in September and format is in a team of 2. And you can expect to see the mountain scenery of Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy. This is the absolute beautiful but with extreme alpine condition. Extreme heat in Morrocco and this is the extreme cold of Transalpine-Run.

The North Face 100
Told myself that I should do something about this part. Anyway, here is the thing. There is a new series of race brewing up this year called The North Face 100 and I must say its finally here! Why? Because previously if we race junkies wants to do an ultramarathon, we have to head out to places like Europe, Mongolia, and USA.
So its great to have this series available in Asia Pacific. Started in May at Blue Mountain Australia, The North Face 100 series, travels through The Philippines in July and Singapore in October and now heading to China for the grand finale in April. These are just some of the highlights from Australia and Singapore and I am sure the race will get more exciting and interesting next year.
Enjoy!
