Some of the world’s best triathletes are in town and ready to kickstart their T100 Triathlon World Tour campaign in the heart of Singapore. The season-opening Singapore T100 will take place in the stunning Marina Bay on April 5 and 6 beginning with the Women’s Pro race on Saturday (5 April) followed by the Men’s Pro race on Sunday.
The Singapore T100 is a multi-sport festival featuring various events for people of different fitness levels. Besides the Pro races, over 7,000 fitness enthusiasts are expected to gather at the F1 Pit Building on Sunday morning for the age-group races. Experienced age-groupers can take on the 100km triathlon (2km swim, 80km cycle, 18km run) on a similar route as the Pros, while others can take on one of two Duathlon races – Standard (4km run, 32km cycle, 6km run) or Long (8km run, 64km cycle, 10km run). The Music Run on Saturday evening will see runners take on the 5km fun run grooving to powerful beats blasted by speakers lined on the route.
