Olympic Triathlons in Asia

The Olympic-distance triathlon โ€” a 1.5 km swim, 40 km bike and 10 km run โ€” is the format raced at the Games themselves, and it draws a strong calendar of events across Asia. Races are spread across several organisers, including the 5150 and Challenge series, so finding everything at this distance in one place normally means visiting multiple websites. This page brings them together. Races in this region tend to cluster from July through to November, with events in Malaysia, the Philippines and China. Cities such as Bandar Penawar, Samal, Shanghai, Forest City and Xiamen each offer a distinct setting and race-day character. Use the listings below to compare dates and locations and find the race that fits your season.
