– 九公里及十七公里 – 台灣2010年6月5日
恭喜!17 公里 <<戶外越野挑戰賽 - 台灣站>>
終於誕生陳 “山王” 及 黃 “山后”
台北 – 2010年5月6 – 台灣Sijhih 運動會的陳福財(譯音)以1小時41分41秒完成17.8公里越野山路,成為動感亞洲<<戶外越野挑戰賽 – 台灣站>>山王。
「一開始時國際級好手Jonathan已於我前面一直向第一個山爬,我也不讓自己鬆懈唯有跟貼。直到濕滑又泥濘的下山路段,我才有機會超前。好運的我一直帶領著直到終點。這賽道真的太了不起了。台灣真的很需要有像這種好玩賽道。」45歲的陳山王邊露出勝利笑容邊答著。
短短3 分鐘後,現居意大利紐西蘭藉的Salomon Suunto大使Jonathan Wyatt,六次世界越野跑步比賽冠軍亦同時衝線。「很久沒試過這樣的賽道,實在太美妙了,風景美得無話可說。真的不能只低著頭看著路,因為要好好欣賞周圍風景。原本我是第一名到達二格山 (678米)的,因為上山是我的強項 (六天前奪得台北101跑樓梯比賽第二名),但下山時有兩名台灣參賽者已從後追上。因比賽前都一直下雨,令到賽道很濕滑,安全第一我也不敢衝下山。直至最後大約兩公里的路段往指南宮上山的路段,催促自己作最後推進,得到第二名。真的有很大潛力將來再舉行這種比賽。」全場總亞軍,現居意大利的Jonathan 以1小時44分50秒完成。
很刺激的一場比賽,第三名於1分多後出現。吳游嘉(譯音)衝過終點時,朋友們都等著為他慶祝。「雖然很泥濘,但路標很足指示很清楚。這條賽道包含很多挑戰:上山下山的幅度很大、很斜的下山段、有平滑的山路、亦有滿有泥石的、中間經過這裡的村莊、最後跑到美極的廟作終點。越野挑戰賽就應該包括這些原素,夠濕滑才好玩!」吳先生以1小時46分正贏得全場總季軍。
加拿大藉現居香港的Salomon隊Jeremy,以1小時47分38秒得第四名。賽後接受訪問時表示「知道有這比賽後已急不及待要到台灣一睹這裡的迷人景緻。一起步後已盡量跟貼Jonathan及台灣本地參賽好手,曾經有段時間很站還以為自己有機會呢!(哈哈)但他們實力實在太強勁了。很欣賞冠軍陳先生的體力及意志力。希望有機會再挑戰這條賽道!」
至於女將方面,Curves Fitness Centre的三項鐵人Jamie Huang表示為這場比賽及台北101跑樓梯比賽已練習了兩個月。「真的難以至信,當我朋友告訴我奪得女子總冠軍時真的不敢相信。這條賽道並沒有我想像中難,但跑至中途曾經抽筋過好幾次,幸好依然能夠完成比賽。曾經參加過動感亞洲挑戰賽 – 馬來西亞站,所以都知道賽道難度有幾高,已有準備才來迎戰。」黃山后以2小時27分27秒完成。 第二名的Vicky Huang以少於2分鐘到達終點。「好開心!很濕很泥濘但很好玩。有幾段下山路段斜得很,所以要特別小心。」Vicky Huang最後以2小時29分18秒得女子組亞軍。
而17公里女子組第三名由許簡薇(譯音)最後以2小時32分18秒奪得。「太棒了!希望像這種比賽能夠定時舉行就好了。」許小姐說。
這次比賽已經是動感亞洲活動十年內第五次於台灣舉行了。今次是歷年來最多人參加,超過430名參賽者於比賽前兩個月報名。十七公里賽道當中都以單行越野賽道為主,加上山脈,最高要攀上678米的二格山,但當到達山頂後,一定會被迷人景緻吸引。然後還有530米的猴山岳及509米的貓空圓山。 其他路段都沒有想象中難。像這樣的賽道,一定不會浪費平常的苦苦練習。參賽者需要於山中的村莊穿梳,還有稻米田及竹林,然後到達炮子崙,於貓空纜車下向指南宮廟跑上山作終點。
「太久了,等得太久了。想像不到要與上次到台灣舉行比賽相隔這麼久。台灣有太多難以置信的賽道,各國際級跑步好手都想一試。越野跑於世界各地開始發展、盛行,因為都市人開始對各種污染、要於路上穿梭車子中間、人車爭路感到嫌倦。往山上跑比較健康,而且更有樂趣,又可接近大自然。」動感亞洲賽事總監Michael Maddess(麥龍生)說。
Salomon Suunto X Trail – 9k & 17k – Taiwan June 5, 2010 race

Chen Fu-Cai King of the mountain at Salomon Suunto x trail 17 km race
Huang takes Queen of the mountain
Taipei, Taiwan – June 5, 2010 – After 17.8 km of technical, muddy slippery up and downhill trail running sections in Maokong, Taiwanese Chen Fu-Cai from the Sijhih sports association claimed victory in 1 hour 41 minutes and 14 seconds.
“I pushed hard as Jonathan was leading up the mountain but I put my energy into the downhill wet muddy sections to get into the lead and held on to win on a fantastic course. This is what Taiwan really needs is more trail races like these as so much fun” said the 45 year old Chen grinning ear to ear.
Just over 3 minutes later, Italian resident Salomon Suunto ambassador and 6x World Trail mountain champion New Zealander Jonathan Wyatt cruised in next across the finish line. “Wow, Taiwan has a lot to offer as that was incredible, what an experience. You really had to keep your head up to watch the turns as haven’t done a trail race like that in a long time. I was in first at the top of Er Ger Shan (678m elevation) as uphill running is my strength (2nd place 6 days earlier in Taipei 101 stairclimb race), but the 2 local Taiwanese got by me on the downhill as it was quite slippery and just wanted to take it easy. It stayed that way until the last 2km of the race before I made a final push on the last uphill to the Zhi Nan Temple and got back into 2nd. Great future for this race as tremendous potential,” said 2nd place overall Jonathan Wyatt who lives in Italy and finished the race in 1 hour 44 minutes 50 seconds.
A little over a minute later and third across the finish line Eagle club runner Wu You-Jia celebrated a fantastic performance. “Very muddy but very well marked course offering everything from a big mountain climb, steep downhill, flowing trails, soft dirt, local villages and a final hill run into a beautiful temple, but where Jonathan pasted me. This is the way trail running should be with challenging courses that are wet as so much fun when you are constantly on the edge the entire race,” said Wu who finished 3rd overall in 1 hour 46 minutes.
Salomon team runner Hong Kong resident Canadian born Jeremy Ritcey grabbed 4th in 1 hour 47 minutes 38 seconds. “Taiwan is great as I’ve been waiting so long too see what the trails are like here and my god, incredible. Tried hard to catch Jonathan and the locals and thought I had a chance as was so close but they did well to hold their ground. Hats off to Chen as he got by early in the race and just ran the technical sections so well. Huge potential as fantastic course” said 4th overall Ritcey.
Overall Women’s winner Triathlete Jamie Huang from the Curves Fitness Centre Taiwan team said she has been training for this race and Taipei 101 race for 2 months. “I couldn’t believe it when my friend told me I had won. I didn’t think it was as difficult as I thought it would be, but did cramp in the middle of the race and fight thru the pain to the finish. I did a previous Action Asia Challenge Malaysia race so knew before hand how difficult the Action Asia designed courses are so prepared well” said overall Women’s winner Huang finishing in 2 hours 27 minutes 27 seconds.
Close behind less than 2 minutes later was Vicky Huang. “So happy. Very muddy but a lot of fun. You had to watch yourself on the downhills and just take your time in the difficult sections” said 2nd overall Women winner Vicky Huang finishing in 2 hours 29 minutes 10 seconds.
Rounding the top 3 Women in the 17km event was Chien-Wei Hsu finishing in 2 hours 32 minutes and 18 seconds. “Incredible. Hope this is a regular trail race as we need more races like this” said Hsu.
It was the 5th event that Action Asia Events has organized in Taiwan over the past 10 years with the largest field yet with over 430 participants registering in the final 2 months before the race was confirmed. The 17 km course featured single track trails with a big 2km Er Ger Shan mountain climb thrown in (678m) with stunning views at the top, 530m Hou Shan and 509m Maokong Yuan Shan that made sure everyone got a good work-out. Participants then ran past small mountain houses, rice paddies, bamboo forests past Pao Chi Lun, trails under the cable car and a uphill finish to Zhi Nan Temple.
“I can’t believe we’ve taken so long to get back to Taiwan as so many incredible running trails that international competitors dream about. Trail running is really growing around the world due to so many people getting tired of the city air pollution, running next to cars, taxi’s and buses. Running up in the mountain is much more healthier and a much more enjoyable experience, not to mention being closer to mother nature,” said Michael Maddess the Race Director of Action Asia Events.
The 9km and 17km events could not have happened without the outstanding support of Salomon and Suunto the two major presenting sponsors supported by Tsing San Iou, Gortex, Union Water, Pocari, In-Motion Asia, Pepsi, Carlsberg, Osprey, Halo headband, Action Asia Magazine, Taiwan Tourism, China Airlines, Zhi Nan Temple and the great help from volunteers, marshals, Tsing San Iou staff and friends, emergency rescue, first aid responders, Camp Taiwan, the outdoor wilderness instructors, Brass Monkey, Alethia University together with family members of participants that all made the 2010 Taiwan Salomon Suunto a big success.
