Rambo, Kim to do SEAG twin duty?
MANILA, Philippines — John Leerams “Rambo” Chicano and Kim Mangrobang may compete in triathlon and duathlon in the Hanoi Southeast Asian Games next year.
Triathlon Association of the Philippines (TRAP) president Tom Carrasco yesterday said both Chicano and Mangrobang, double-gold winners in triathlon in the 2019 SEA Games, are trying out for slots as they compete in the 2021 National Duathlon Trials on Sunday at the Clark Parade Grounds.
The need to fill these duathlon spots came up after Monica Torres, who struck gold in the discipline in the 2019 SEA Games in Subic, retired while Joey delos Reyes, who snared a silver, is nursing an injury.
“They could be our best duathletes right now,” said Carrasco referring to Chicano and Mangrobang.
Other notable names that are expected to participate are 2019 SEA Games silver medalist Kim Remolino, two-time SEA Games triathlon golden boy Nikko Huelgas and 2019 SEAG duathlon mixed relay bronze medalists Efraim Inigo and Mary Pauline Fornea.
