WHILE focus will be on the Century Tuna full Ironman Philippines, a mix of fearless bidders from at least 29 countries mount their own drive for top honors in the Subic Ironman 70.3, which reels off Sunday in Subic Bay.
It will be ushered in by the Ironkids on Saturday and highlighted by the third staging of the grueling 3.8-km swim, 180-km bike and 42-km run race, also on Sunday. But the 301-triathlete strong local contingent is out to keep the title at home with John Alcala, who stole the thunder from the big guns to snatch the Puerto Princesa 70.3 trophy last November, leading the challenge, along with Jonathan Pagaura, Yoejan Prudente and Jocel Rendon.
Keen competition is also seen in various age-group categories, including the 18-24 division, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74 and 75-and-above, both in the men’s and women’s classes.Also to be disputed are the IM 70.3 relay titles, including the all-male, all-female and mixed.
