Race Course Description:
The Swim will be done at Dungaree Beach at the far end of the Subic Airport.
T1 will be just outside Dungaree.
The Bike Course goes straight out of Dungaree Beach and up towards the Naval Magazine area. Turn-Around (TA) for the Sprint is at Bldg. 2070, past the Naval Magazine Gate, while the TA for the SD is 800m past Shaw Bunker, near the 2nd wire mesh gate.
After the respective TA’s, cyclists will head back to the airport, turn right at
Argonaut (the road along the airport), take the left fork to Maritan, turn left at Rizal, left at Labitan, right at Dewey, left at Manila, then left at Waterfront to T2.
T2 is last year’s Transition Area at the former Boardwalk Area.
Sprint participants will dismount at their 1st pass at T2, while SD will do an
additional 10k loop, which is as follows: From T2 go down Waterfront to Sampson, left at Sampson. Go past the Spanish Gate, then the Police HQ, left on Burgos past the track oval, then right at Rizal. Go past the Yacht Club, right at the Petron station then turn around on Argonaut in front of the Asian International Auctioneers compound. Back towards Petron, left at Rizal until Subic International Hotel, left at Labitan, right on Dewey, left at Manila, left at Waterfront, & back to T2.
The Run will be around the loop defined by the following streets- Waterfront,
Manila, Dewey, and Sampson – in a clockwise direction, i.e., all right turns.
SD will do 4 loops and the Sprint 2.
There will be no SuperTriKids (STK) races this year for the 9-12 year olds, but
we are holding a Mini Sprint for 13-15 YO’s. The swim will also be done at Dungaree. Out of T1, the kids will ride out to and take a left at Argonaut following the same route as the Adults to T2. They will then do 1 loop on the run.
No iPods & mp3’s can be used during any portion of the race.
The Finish will be at the center of Rojas St. between El Centro and Courtyard Inn.
