IRONMAN champ Tim Reed goes all out to foil fellow Australian Sam Betten’s three-peat bid as he seeks to nail his first 5150 crown in the Bellevue Resort Triathlon which unwraps Sunday (Nov. 5) at the Bellevue Resort in Panglao Island, Bohol. That includes Betten, who has also primed himself up for a shot at a third straight crown along with Alex Polizzi, also of Australia and a veteran Ironman campaigner, and Rwanda’s Gabe Manner. The pristine Panglao Island, billed as one of the country’s top tourist destinations, boasts of natural wonders and attractions as well as artistic, cultural and historical treasures. Panglao Island has also become a haven for weekend travelers and city folk looking for rest and relaxation. Winners in the Open championship will receive $2,000 purse each with the top male and female Elite finishers will pocket P30,000 each.
