Even before completing my first OD triathlon, I have registered for two more, the Tri Factor race in September, and the OSIM Singapore International Triathlon. Both OD category.
The OSIM tri has been a regular fixture for many years, always at the East Coast. Earlier, there was a proposal to bring this under the ITU umbrella, but the event was scuttled due to lack of sponsorship. It was supposed to be the first event in the ITU series. Fortunately, OSIM step back in as sponsor.
The OSIM tri will be on Aug 1 and 2 (OD event is on Aug 2). Registration just opened, and early bird ends on May 25. So register if you are planning to! Also, there is another good reason to act quickly. The cap is 1,200 participant for the OD event, and 3.800 for the entire race. Gimmick? To play safe, I registered today. :)
The Tri Factor triathlon is a new addition, with the series starting with the Tri Swim earlier this month. I have only good impressions and comments of the Tri Factor event so far. In addition, the registration fee for individual OD event is under $40 (early bird), compared to >$100 for OSIM (also early bird)!
Nuff said. Back to training!
