This year, the Philippines has experienced great deal of monumental changes – automated election and new administration. Many Filipinos tried to stop these changes, but most of us believe it is for the better.

In the URCC, we also changed – from the usual two (2) Manila main events, we added another one. And, we know, this is for the better.

The earliest main event we had in Manila was the URCC XVI “Reckoning” in March, while the second one, URCC XVII “Havoc”, is just around the corner. July 24 is the date to be blocked off, and A.Venue Events Hall in Makati City is the place to flock to, to see the change in MMA landscape.

The Salomon Running Clinics is series of clinics where we will offer the participants a setting wherein lessons are tailor-made for them to learn the sport of trail running. We have experts who will give them all the knowledge they will need in order for them to ease themselves into the sport. From the basics to race preparation, they will learn from the best in the different fields in the sport. But it won’t stop there. After the talk, the participants will actually apply those skills on the trail. Held in different venues where the trail becomes more challenging every time (and the scenery better and better), we will be able to make them experience the excitement and the heaven that one feels when they’re running with nature.
