SKIP, SLIDE AND RUN TO THE NEW OBSTACLES AT COLOR MANILA'S CM CHALLENGE

Color Manila’s CM CHALLENGE, the biggest obstacle fun run in the country, is scheduled on July 30, 2017 at McKinley West, Taguig, after successful back to back legs in Cebu, Laguna, and most recently - Cavite.

Challengers will run, skip, slide, crawl, hop and run through the mazes.

CM Challenge is a unique fun run as it incorporates obstacles on the race route. Participants a.k.a “Challengers” need to skip, slide, crawl, climb walls, and run, all at their own pace. Color Manila adds its own flavor of colorful fun as color stations are situated throughout the route; runners start off clean but end awash in color as they cross the finish line. Capping off the experience is the Color Festival where everyone tosses color powder up in the air while dancing to the latest beats.

Particiants start off clean and are doused in color as they go through the race route

“After a series of successful runs earlier this year, we are confident that runners in Metro Manila will enjoy CM Challenge. We want to take the usual fun run experience to the next level by offering different experiences every time,” says COLOR MANILA VP Justine Cordero. Some of the more advanced obstacles featured in the CM Challenge Manila leg are in partnership with the Pilipinas Obstacle Sports Federation (POSF). POSF is the only legitimate and governing sports association for Obstacle Sports/ Obstacle Course Racing in the Philippines with a nationwide membership base.

Everyone stays on after the run to enjoy and party during the color festival finale.
