Subject: RE: New Asian IMs (?) swiss tri - 2010-07-10 12:21 PM With the termination of IM Malaysia, there are plans for two new IMs in Asia. My sources have not been willing to devulge the details, but I suspect one might be in the Philippines. Has anyone heard any news? Thanks. Affirmative, Ghostrider. It looks like August 2011. That's what my sources say, anyway. Have you talked to Roman? He's THE DUDE for triathlon in Asia now ... And as I'm sure you've noticed, the triathlon scene here, especially in Southeast Asia, is EXPLODING. It's cheap to stage triathlons here (relatively ), everyplace is some kind of a destination spot, and Asian or Asian-based multisport athletes are on the serious rise. Also keep an eye on 70.3 races ... And the growth of other long-course races. |
