The Nissan Tri Team finishes strong at IRONMAN 70.3 Lapu-Lapu

Cebu City, Philippines — IRONMAN 70.3 Lapu-Lapu, known as one of the most grueling endurance challenges in the Asia-Pacific region, witnessed the Nissan tri-team pushing their limits across a demanding course. The challenge comprised a 1.9-kilometer swim, a 90-kilometer bike ride against strong headwinds that spanned the Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX), and a grueling 21-kilometer run in scorching 33°C heat.

The Nissan tri team was represented by three distinct groups: the Nissan Brand Ambassador group led by Nissan ambassadors Matteo Guidicelli and Bubbles Paraiso, the Nissan Employee group, and the Nissan Dealer Principals group. Each group played a part in Nissan's success, braving the scorching heat and strong winds during the race. Despite these challenges, the team showed grit, navigating the course with precision and resilience.
