PREP: Regent 5150 2017

One of the most awaited races of the year just went through a major revamp. This year’s Regent 5150 will have significant changes to the swim, bike, and run courses; don’t fret because we will discuss everything in detail in this edition of Practical Race Execution Preview powered by Sante Barley!

PREP: Durianman 2017 Recap

If you want a refreshingly unique kind of race, Durianman is perfect for you.
While I have nothing against all the races in Subic bay (Disclaimer: I love racing there because of course familiarity, organization, and convenience), sometimes, it’s nice to break out of the norm and try something different. Durianman is a race that’s both comfortable yet challenging, unique yet familiar, exotic yet close to home.

#Breaking2

The whole athletic world was glued to the livestream of Nike’s #Breaking2 attempt last May 6 for good reason. The event itself was more than just a marketing stunt by Nike nor a world record attempt; it was an experiment that tested the limits of both human physiology and technology. The goal was quite simple, break the longstanding 2hr marathon barrier. Of course, this is easier said than done.

PREP: Tri United Exceed 2017

It’s another season and the Sante Barley Practical Race Execution and Preview (PREP) series is here once again to make sure you’ve got all the points ticked off for race day!
There are some minute changes to the first race of the TriUnited franchise. Last year’s TU1 has been renamed to The TriUnited Exceed Standard. However, apart from the name change, the race is almost identical to last year.
