Results of the Ateneo Track and Field Team at the
57th Sabah Open

About 800 runners flocked to Ateneo to take on the UPHILL CHALLENGE. And, boy, did they conquer it.  Elite runners, international runners, kiddie runners, runners from all walks of life, and our very own high school and college athletes gathered to participate in this one-of-a-kind running event.

Fr. Ben Nebres led the opening prayer and Mr. Richard Palou, Director of the University Athletics Office, fired the gun for the start of the race.

Congratulations to the winners and finishers of the Uphill Challenge! (Click here for race results)

This is only one of four road runs to be staged throughout the school year.  Watch out for the next Big Blue Run. We hope to see you there!

On July 11, a different kind of running event awaits runners from all over the metro. Test your strength and get ready for a new kind of running high as the Ateneo Track & Field program, in partnership with La Vista Homeowners’ Association present The Big Blue Run: Uphill Challenge.

The 5K and 10K routes cover the Ateneo de Manila campus and continue into La Vista Village for the uphill stretch.  There will also be a 3K fun run within the campus.

P10,000 in cash await both the first male and female to conquer the challenging 10K route., while P7,000 await the 5K champions.  Cash prizes are also in store for those who place second and third in the male/female adult (19 and up) and junior (18 and below) divisions.  Special prizes will be given to the top 5 male/female finishers of the 10K in the masters division (35 and up).  Top 10 finishers of the 3K category also have special prizes in store for them.

This event will only be the first of a series of four runs to be staged at the Ateneo throughout the year.  Aside from the Uphill Challenge, other exciting runs like the Big Blue Night Run, BBR Cross Country Challenge and Big Blue Katipunan Run await runners in the coming months.

In line with this, the Ateneo Big Blue Running Club will also be launched on July 11.  Race organizer and Ateneo Track & Field program head, Coach Mick Perez said “Ateneo would like to promote running to the community.  The campus can be a place where runners can congregate, run together, and learn from each other.”

Registration will be held at the Ateneo campus (University Athetics Office, Blue Eagle Gym) starting June 21 and at the La Vista Village office starting June 28.  Registration at RUNNR Bonifacio High Street will be from June 26-July 10 from 12nn-9pm.  Registration fee is P400 for all distances, which includes race bibs and finisher shirts.  Assembly time is at 5:00am.  Loot bags await all finishers.
