Quiambao, Reig banner Century IM field

MANILA, Philippines —   Fresh off dominating performances in Davao, national team standouts Bea Quiambao and Irienold Reig Jr. will spearhead a fierce battle in the 10th Century IRONMAN 70.3 Subic Bay on Sunday.

The country’s premier triathlon capital offers a testy course of 1.9km swim, 90km bike and 21km with Quiambao wearing a massive target on her back after clinching the overall women’s championship and the Filipino Elite title in Davao City aside from her historic win at the inaugural 5150 Camiguin.

Reig, meanwhile, looks to ride the momentum of his breakthrough men’s victory.

Standing in their way is a deep, ultra-competitive field. The Philippine Sports Commission continues its vital backing of the Filipino Elite Category, ensuring a premier, home-soil stage for current national athletes, former mainstays and rising homegrown stars.
