It seems like good times here in the country for those who participate in multi-sports competitions as these athletes are gearing up once again for one of the largest, well-known global duathlon race organization, the POWERMAN which is heading to Balanga in Bataan for the Powerman Duathlon Pilipinas to be held on November 14-15, 2015. Aside from our local athletes, more than a dozen other professional duathletes from Europe, the U.S. and Asia will compete in this inaugural event.
The Powerman Pilipinas duathlon will be the perfect opportunity for novice multi-sports athletes who are not yet into swimming to test their skills in the run-bike-run discipline along the well-paved roads and picturesque surroundings of Balanga. This is a great venue for the regular triathlete and veteran duathletes to focus on their speed and transition times.
The start and finish will be at the Earthfield Center in Balanga with the run course to be held at the Enrique Garcia Senior Avenue (1 loop) x 10k while the bike ride will be along an almost flat course at the Roman Super Highway (30kms) 2 loops.The bike course venue will be generally traffic-free and travelling to Bataan will be very accessible via SCTEX where athletes can arrive in about 2.5-3.5 hours time of easy driving from Metro Manila.
The Powerman Duathlon Pilipinas 2015 aims to raise the level of competition in the Philippine duathlon scene. The event offers a classic category with distances of 10-60-10 km (run-bike-run), a 10-30-10 km sprint and kid’s categories.
This inaugural event takes place on November the 14th and 15th, with veteran race organizer, Thumbie Remegio as over-all Race Director. He has teamed up with marketing executive and multisport enthusiast Tobias Bernardo and restaurateur Raymund Magdaluyo to bring in Powerman to the Philippines.
Powerman Duathlon Pilipinas is a qualifying event for the 2016 Powerman ITU Long Distance Duathlon World Championships in Zofingen, Switzerland. The event welcomes professional and highly competitive age-group athletes, seasoned multisport athletes who want to take on a different challenge as well as beginner multisport athletes.
