The KONQER Apocalypse Tour kicks off in Saipan on May 25 and features massive \u201cboss\u201d obstacles. (Konqer Facebook Page)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Saipan\u2019s KONQER Apocalypse Obstacle Course Challenge has been rescheduled from April 27 to May 25, according to KONQER president Kelli Wedd and MVA managing director Chris Concepcion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith so many community events taking place in April and May, and with some logistical issues we unexpectedly encountered recently, we are very happy to be able to move KONQER Saipan to May 25,\u201d said Concepcion. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis gives the organizers more time to prepare and teams and individuals more time to register. This will definitely be a great event with it falling on Memorial Day weekend, too. We are very excited for the third annual KONQER Saipan to take place next month,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Registration is available for as low as $25 per person, 18 and older (event only) and free for age 17 and under at konqersports.com. Non-business team registration is also available on the KONQER website, and business teams can be coordinated directly by emailing support@konqersports.com. KONQER Saipan will start at 9am.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow that we are on our 10th event overall, we\u2019ve learned that while delays are never ideal, it\u2019s always best to hold KONQER when it\u2019s in the best interest of the community,\u201d said Wedd. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe hope everyone understands the decision to push back the date for K10, and we\u2019d like to extend our sincere appreciation to the local agencies and partners who have shown us such kindness and cooperation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Revised course information will be released soon, so event organizers encourage everyone to stay tuned to the KONQER website and Facebook page for the latest updates.<\/p>\n<p>KONQER Saipan is presented by the MVA and sponsored by Bank of Guam, Fiesta Resort &amp; Spa Saipan, IT&amp;E, American President Lines, Coors Light, Marianas Variety, Roil Soil, Saipan Brewing Company, Tribe Marianas, Paradise Awnings, DR LLC, Vantage Advertising, GoPro, and TriVision Media Group. <strong>(PR)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saipan\u2019s KONQER Apocalypse Obstacle Course Challenge has been rescheduled from April 27 to May 25,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":297543,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-297541","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297541","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/28"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=297541"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297541\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/297543"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=297541"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=297541"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=297541"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
