Highest Point Ultramarathon 2019 50K (Benguet)

Posted On January 24, 2019

Highest Point (HP) by TP Ultramarathon 2.0 will be held on April 14, 2019 at the La Trinidad to Highest point, Atok, Benguet. It’s an ultra marathon where the finish line is 7400 feet above sea level.

Team Pinikpikan (TP), a group of like-minded individuals from different fields and mostly Cordillerans, is brought together in 2016 by the common passion of trail and road running, adventure and love for nature.

We fully support and promote the Province of Benguet as a must-see tourist destination in the Cordilleras. In our humble way, we wish to help in strengthening this area particularly through trail and road running, one of the fastest rising sports that draws people from all ages and walks of life from across the country and even international elite runners. Since our mountains have given a lot to our well-being, we wish to give back by organizing an ultra marathon dubbed as “HP by TP” (Highest Point by Team Pinikpikan) with a distance of 50 km road run on April 14, 2019 (Sunday).
