TEAM UP!!!

With all the weekly running races scheduled in Cebu it is not unusual that many will want to experience other forms of endurance sports. Some swim while others Bike. A few do all three. 

Modern Triathlon started in California, USA however was made famous in Hawaii when an argument between who has the most endurance was started. Navy personnel suggested to combine all 3 long distance races in Hawaii into one big event. They merged the 3.86Km swim of the Waikiki Roughwater Swim, 185Km bike of the Around-Oahu Bike Race and the 42.195Km run of the Honolulu Marathon. They then called the first person to finish the course "The Ironman".

Not many athletes start out good in all three sports. Training, for all three sports, is not only strenuous to our body but demand so much time as well. 

This coming Sunday, Danao City will host another triathlon race. Cyclists, Runners and swimmers will join and race alongside Filipino Ironman Champion Noy Jopson and other elite triathletes. Most will join and complete the course individually but some may team up and carry out separate tasks. One will swim, the other will Bike and another will run. Not only will it be a new experience for all three members but will be a test of each others bond. 

Join a triathlon race as a RELAY TEAM. Rally up your friends who can swim, bike or run and experience another rush of excitement. The TEAM can choose between 2 distance events. The Sprint distance consist of a 750m swim, 30Km bike and 7.5Km run while the Standard/ Olympic distance will cover 1.5Km swim, 40Km bike and a 10K run. 

Register on-site starting at 6am at the Danao Fish Port where all the events start. The race usually starts at 7:30AM in the Danao Pier. The Transition zone will be at the pier as well as the finish line. 

See you this Sunday!!! And do not forget to enjoy the Race!!!
