Urban Guerilla Race: The Mission to Become a Hero is Clear


Wazzup Pilipinas!

The first and only obstacle racing series within Philippine territories, TN-Guerilla Race Inc. is proud to announce the resumption of the GUERILLA RACE SERIES for 2015 with its entry level challenge, the URBAN GUERILLA RACE, targeting over 1,500 athletes and race aficionados, and nearly as many spectators, all set to participate in this first leg of the year.

The Guerilla Race Series is the first obstacle-driven race series of its kind in the Philippines. Skillfully developed by a Philippine Army scout ranger, the Guerilla Race Series is meant to test the Guerilla Racers’ limits in terms of endurance of body, presence of mind and resilience of spirit.

This is a benefit race with a guerilla mission to embark on corporate social responsibility, TN-Guerilla Race Inc. supports the H.E.R.O. Foundation by donating part of the registration fees to support the education of the orphans of our soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the service of this country.

The URBAN GUERILLA RACE marks the beginning of the Guerilla Race Series which is held annually, with 4 major races per year, in different regions of exciting landscapes and race topography within the Philippines.

Participants in the Urban Guerilla Race will be competing in the individual male and female categories as well as in the team competition for both the Sprint and Warrior Races. But that’s not all. With the success of the debut of our Guerilla Kids Race last year, we are again including the Kids Race for this first leg of the series so expect this first leg to be a fun-filled family affair.

Finishers will be rewarded with the Heroes’ Welcome– the Guerilla Race Finishers’ Party offering a catered meal, a beer bash and live bands to reward their brawn and bravery. The top 3 males and top 3 females ofthe Urban Guerilla Race qualify for a free entry into the next tier.





The Blaze is in the Race

Water, fire, mud, spider nets, barbed wires, high walls, tunnels and other bizarre challenges are leagues beyond the usual fun run trails. TheGuerilla Race Seriesis all about the very obstacles that emphasize exciting landscapes and various race topographies in different regions of the Philippines. 


“Finish the race…or die trying”

The Guerilla Race Series is designed to unleash uncharted territories of one’s physical strength and mental stamina with the battery of obstacles. There is no map to be consulted nor is there any schedule of challenges to be followed. The only known constant lies in the mantra to “Finish the race…or die trying.”
