On the side note, Mojie De Luna is the first GXM runner to finish 100 miles in nine days and continues to push forward hoping to reach 200 miles before the challenge ends.
If just making distance is too dull, LITS has also made a creative way to add miles with hiking. Last Saturday, Decemeber 8th, a group went for a hike on Forbidden Island and last Saturday hiked through the Sound of Music Hill located in Kanat Tabla and this coming Saturday’s hike will be taken to the northside of the island.
The challenge continues to grow with a total of 140 participants now registerered.
“Its not too late to join and finish 2020 well. Registration is free and all are welcome. Prizes for top finisher and exciting raffle prizes at the end of GXM” said Eric Abragan.
