ARCA South to hold novel SyncRUNize

MANILA, Philippines - A first-ever mobile-app integrated adventure run dubbed the SyncRUNize will be held Sept. 19 with a different kind of challenge awaiting regular and weekend runners at ARCA South in Taguig.

Unlike the regular 5km runs, the SyncRUNize will challenge both body and mind through a number of physical obstacles and mental drills. Racers will first have to download the exclusive SyncRUNize mobile app available on Google Play and iOS. The app directs participants from one checkpoint to another where they will have to accomplish the physical or mental challenge before they can get to the next.

ARCA South, Ayala Land, Inc.’s 74-hectare property in Taguig billed as the new “city in sync,” has partnered with Guerilla Race, organizers of the Guerilla Race Series, to specially design the obstacle course. Mentral drills, which include calculations, stock knowledge tests, or abstract reasoning, were designed by Go Go Hunt.

“SyncRUNize is the kind of event that embodies the principle behind ARCA South as a City in Sync,” said Stephen Comia, ARCA South project development manager. “The development is envisioned to be the newest CBD in Taguig where all the elements that make a city are present and in sync.”
