XTERRA Guam registration now ongoing

The modified sprint distance off-road triathlon has a 1 kilometer swim in the beautiful waters of Piti, Guam, followed by 31 kilometer bike up Nimitz Hill and through the Mt. Alutom area and finally, a challenging 8.2 kilometer trail run.

Cash prizes to the top 3 overall male and female finishers. It’s the perfect follow up race for athletes finishing the inaugural XTERRA Manila event or a great primer for those on their way to the New Zealand XTERRA races!

First place will be awarded $600 while second place will take home $400, and last but not least, third place will bag $200. The Age group winners (top 3) and the top overall relay team will receive medals/ribbons.
