On Jan 15, a unique event will be happening. Starting in Puerto Viejo runners can choose from 10km, 21km and 42km courses.
The Jungle Run will take participants on a route through nature from its starting point in Puerto Viejo to Punta Cocles (turnaround point for the 10km route), Punta Uva (turnaround for the half marathon) or Punta Mona (turnaround for the full marathon).
The course is at sea level with mostly flat sections. The difficulties runners will face are soft sand, roots, muddy trails, and tropical conditions of sun and/or rain depending on the weather that particular day. Not an easy run, but exotic and demanding.
There are aid stations along the way where runners can get cold water, electrolyte drinks and carbohydrates. The aid stations will be located at 5km, 11km, 21km, 31km, and 36km. Parts of the run are in protected rain forest. Racers must carry CamelBaks or water bottles, we will leave no trace, except footsteps!
More information and registration is available on their website www.jungleruncr.com
