The Teams Got Good Results in the Tepec Trail Race, Hidalgo
Oax Sport’s athletes return from the last round of the Golden Trail National Series Mexico with excellent results and valuable experience. Tepec Trail by UTMX took place on the 28th and 29th of August 2021 in Huasca de Ocampo, Hidalgo, México and it was the host race of the final round of the series.

Our affiliate team, Bekw yâs Güilá, had four participants in the 12k race and they were:

- Juan Cruz 15th place.
- Luis Santiago 17th place.
- Hernan Luis Garcia, the team manager, led and encouraged the participation of the younger competitors in this national race.
“I had a significant experience at Tepec Trail. The final round of the Golden Trail Series by Salomon brought the best runners in Mexico to compete in a technical 40 km mountain race. I had the misfortunate of starting in the last hit, which meant I had to pass hundreds of slower runners.
In a trail run, it’s almost impossible to run at one’s pace while trying to overtake through tight paths, water crossing, technical uphill, and downhill. Even though, I am happy to be part of this event and glad to know that I had the performance and preparation to get a better result if I had started with runners in my level.” Rosalino Meneses Lopez. Oax Sport Athlete.

“I am more than satisfied with my result in Tepec Trail in Huasca de Ocampo; we ran on a technical trail, full of mud, obstacles, many climbs, river crossings, but above all a lot of fun, my main aim was to get down from the general position of a 44th place got on the Cerro Rojo Trail to an 18th place in Tepec.
This 2021 was the year in which I got to know cross-country racing and everything truly amazed me; the landscapes, the organization, the good company, but above all, the love that runners have for this sport. Now is the time to continue training with great enthusiasm and perseverance because 2022 is coming full of triumphs for Oax Sport.” Diego Martinez Mondragón, Athlete.
