This October, we revisit Subic one more time as we take part in the much awaited TriUnited 3! This race, arguably, is the most difficult long distance event in the local triathlon scene. Drastically different from the previous iterations, the 2016 version has a few surprises up its sleeves. Welcome to the Sante Barley Practical Race Execution Preview (PREP) for TriUnited 3!
The Aboitiz Tri 2016 is a welcome break from the usual races held in Subic in Zambales, Clark in Pampanga, and Nuvali, Laguna. Situated roughly 100 km from Metro Manila, Hamilo Coast (Pico de Loro Cove) in Nasugbu, Batangas is a secluded paradise engulfed by lush foliage, scenic mountains, and a breathtaking view of the West Philippine Sea. Not only is it a unique race for veteran and newbie triathletes, it’s got fun for family and friends too. Here’s what triathletes can expect on September 3.
After the pressure, excitement, and hardships of preparing for your A race, nothing can be as fulling as crossing the finish line. Yet, once the festive and energetic atmosphere dies down, we’re left to stare blankly into nothingness. With no apparent race in the near horizon, what would drive us to push on with each training session?
The Ironman 70.3 Philippines held in Cebu has been the highlight of the local triathlon calendar for the past 6 years now. The course is challenging yet beautiful. The unpredictable current of the swim, the tough headwind on the bike, and the scorching run make it a race to remember.
It’s July once again and that can only mean one thing, Tri United 2 is here and it’s going to be harder and tougher than ever! Follow me and my page on Facebook for updates and other developments as we count down the days! (FlyingDonVCoaching on FB)
