EAUTY meets Sports was the tagline during the Homecoming of Pia last year when she won Bb. Pilipinas together with the launching of Rafthon, the newest Triathlon and Duathlon concept held only during the Higalaay Festival every August.

Beauty meets Sports symbolizes the two assets of Cagayan De Oro, First is recognizing the Kagayanon Beauty that continuously earned the respect in different Local and International Pageants. Second is showcasing the wholesome adventure fun of the White Water Rafting. Combining the two assets will synergies to give an ultimate experience, a celebration only can be found here . An exciting event in celebrating HIGALAAY FESTIVAL with the beautiful and friendly people of Cagayan De Oro. The “act of friendship” is best defined from the word Higalaay, And what a better way to celebrate “friendship” with old and new friends through RAFTHON and HIGALAAY STREET

PARTY. RAFTHON is basically for everybody both competitive and for fun. Since the objective is celebrating friendship, RAFTHON ADVENTURE RUN is for you, just form a Team with six members and paddle your way and run till the end.( est 30mins rafting with 5K run). This is a great experience for fun run lovers and runners enthusiast. And for more heart pumping adrenalin rush then RAFTHON CHALLENGE is the right choice.This category is designed for triathletes and serious athletes, same as Adventure Run but a 35K bike is added and a 10K run to give more intense multi sport experience. Everyone is new to the concept and still anyone’s game. But more than just a sport it’s the enjoyment and bonding that annotates the meaning of

Higalaay in our Fiesta celebration. We ended with the Higalaay Street Party, showing to the world that Cdo, Mindanao rather is safe and the place to be. Truly it’s more fun in the Philippines!!!
