Alternate runners in case anyone of the 3 cant make if due to injury or other reasons will come from the 2nd runners up in the same categories and divisions. The team that will leave to race abroad are 3 trail runners plus the Race Director Alvin Balderama and 4 members of support team coming from Pimco Sporting Events that include a certified nurse and veteran medical team member of races in the Philippines.
