With the 5150 Triathlon, the Go for Gold Sunrise Sprint welcomes athletes – both primed and new to the sport for the shorter course. With a distance of 750m swim, 20km bike, and a 5km run, the race is set to be both competitive and friendly. Mr. Jeremy Go, Powerball Vice President for Marketing, the company behind Go for Gold Philippines, sees the importance of the short course. โWe support the staging of short course triathlons because it promotes health and fitness of the community by encouraging people of all ages and fitness levels to participate which leads to a healthier lifestyle and improved overall wellness. It is also where athletes build the skills and confidence, thus the more they race, the more they gain and improve in the sport.โ
โDapitan is always inviting, as it is with the tourism slogan of the city. Dapitan as a race destination is beautiful and we are honored to organize an event that showcases Filipino achievement in the home of our national hero.
