A middle distance triathlon covers 1.9 km of swimming, 90 km on the bike and a 21.1 km run. In Asia, these races are spread across a wide range of countries and conditions, from coastal Malaysia and the Philippines to inland China and the beaches of Vietnam, India and Taiwan. Races organised by IRONMAN, Challenge and independent organisers all sit at the same distance โ but until now, finding them meant checking each organiser's site separately. SportsPal brings every middle distance race in Asia onto a single page so you can compare dates and locations without the legwork. Racing tends to cluster in the cooler or drier months for each region โ July through November sees strong representation, with further races appearing in April. Cities such as Lapu-Lapu, Xiamen, Goa, Phu Quoc and Singapore each offer a distinct setting and climate, so it is worth comparing not just dates but what each course actually involves.
