OVERSEAS RACE: Trans QJM Gunung Pulai Ultra 2025 cover photo

We are excited to be back at this hilly ultra for a second year running!

Join us to take on the mudfest that is Trans QJM Gunung Pulai Ultra. Choices of 10, 20, 30 and 50km.

RSVPs CLOSE SUNDAY 13th APRIL

How it works:

Visit the official event page to register and get your ticket.
RSVP here and keep an eye on your Meetup inbox – we will reach out to you with an invitation to our WhatsApp group.
Get ready for race day!

PLEASE NOTE:

REGISTRATION: We are a running club based in Singapore. We do not organise Trans QJM Gunung Pulai. As such, ticket purchase is separate from our running club – we each sort our own tickets.
ACCOMMODATION: Urban Jungle Runners (that's us) will arrange accommodation if you want to share with us. This will all be discussed in the WA group in the lead-up to the event. Last year, with 9 people sharing, each person paid around $20.
TRANSPORT: Depending on the numbers and logistics on the day, we may all be able to squeeze into one car once in JB. You will probably need to make your own way across the checkpoint, but likely some members of the running club can travel together by bus/MRT/taxi to Woodlands, and take it from there.
ESSENTIALS: Do note, the race organisers have a list of compulsory items for participants. Last year, we ordered all together from Shoppee. I'm happy to do this again, but please factor in this cost when registering.

Any questions, please get in touch!

FAQ
What pace will we run at?
Our target road run pace is around 5:45/km. Faster and slower runners may find themselves running together with others, although this is not guaranteed. Best practice is to have the route handy on your phone if you think you may end up alone. This is available via the link above. We all get together for breakfast at the end.
What if I'm late on the day?
Please contact your organiser Cary on 96907744. We will wait 10 minutes for any latecomers. Please do communicate if you have a change of plans and decide not to run, so that we can go on time.
