Malaysia Mountain Trail Festival VR Edition 2020 @ Reset and Challenge the New Normal is created to commemorate Malaysia Mountain Trail Festival 2020 and we hope it will help each of you to stay motivated whilst giving you the chance to test yourself across the 2 distances (50KM & 13KM) we have in store. You would have up to 2 weeks to complete the challenge. We will take into account the “kilometer effort” for those of you who cannot integrate elevation gain in your run.
