MediCard Sprint Tri at Fontana

MANILA,Philippines — The second MediCard Sprint Tri is all set with a field of close to 300 competing inside the Fontana Leisure Park in Clark, Pampanga on Sunday.

Organized by Bike King, the event features a 600-meter swim at the Olympic-size pool of the water park followed by a single loop 20-kilometer bike course around the Clark grounds and a single lap five-kilometer run on the rolling paths of the resort. The finish line will be along J.P. Rizal Avenue.

Specially designed trophies and gift items are at stake for the age-group winners, team competition, and relay category winners in the event sponsored by MediCard Philippines, Standard Insurance, Klean Athlete Nutritional Supplements, Smart, Garmin, Pocari Sweat, Sip Purified Water, Air Relax Massage Guns Philippines, Fontana and Royce Hotel and Casino.

“Wellness is more than being free from illness. It includes physical, mental and social well-being. This is the reason why MediCard promotes wellness through sports because aside from promoting physical health through physical activities, sports also improves social skills and gives positive mental health,” said MediCard president Dr. Nicky Montoya.
