🇵🇭⛰️ National trail running athlete @romnick_tongkaling rises to 4th place in the provisional rankings of the World Trail Majors Short Series after stacking valuable points from Mt. Fuji 100 - Asumi 40K last April and Hong Kong 100 – The Half last January 🔥
The season is only halfway through, with more races ahead and more chances to shake up the rankings—but it already means so much to see the Philippine flag climbing among the world’s best in trail running. 🌏
The Filipino trail running community is proud of you, Niko! 💪🇵🇭
Thanks to @worldtrailmajors for this platform and to race organisers of @mt.fuji100 and @hk100ultra for giving Filipino athletes a place at the starting line.
