On behalf of Fresh Sports Group, I’d like to welcome you to the 17th edition of Powerman Malaysia. Powerman has a long and successful history in Malaysia and we are proud to be leading the way in the next chapter of Powerman’s Malaysia story.

We’d also like to congratulate the over 4,200 PowerMen, PowerWomen, PowerTeens and PowerKids from over 35 countries who have signed up for this year’s event; together we can now lay claim to the prestigious title of the World’s Largest Duathlon, eclipsing previous title holder, the London Duathlon. This is quite an achievement and one that all Malaysia can feel proud of.

This year’s event will continue as the Asian Championship race and is an Asian Triathlon Confederation (ASTC) sanctioned Middle Distance Championship in the 10-60-10km category. Athletes will be competing for cash prizes and coveted qualifying spots for the ITU Powerman World Championships 2021 in Denmark and Switzerland.

For some of you, it’s about getting on the podium, for others, it’s about setting a new personal record or simply the joy of participating and trying something new. Whatever your goal is this year, we applaud you and encourage you to always give your best and to never give up.

See you at the start line!

WELCOME MESSAGE

https://www.freshsportsgroup.com/


I’d like to extend a warm welcome to all Powerman Malaysia 2020 athletes. Whatever your motivation for competing, I congratulate and thank you for choosing to enter a Powerman duathlon. With the expert guidance of the team at Fresh Sports Group, we look forward to another outstanding event at Dataran Putrajaya.

Powerman is the premier event for duathlons and is the brand that unites the biggest and most well known duathlons in the world under the International Powerman Association (IPA). Athletes of all ages from every corner of the world travel to train, challenge, compete and strive to be the World’s top Powerman duathlete.

We’re seeing tremendous growth of competitive running and cycling in Asia, with Powerman providing the ultimate platform for these sportsmen and sportswomen to meet, compete and challenge themselves. So, what’s the best race to experience this? Without a doubt it’s Powerman Malaysia, Powerman’s Asian Championship race and now the World’s Largest Duathlon!

The growth in participation numbers reflects a renewed focus on health and wellbeing and the desire by men and women, young and old, to get out there, be active and challenge themselves and others. It is also a reflection of the strength of the Powerman brand and the proud history of this great event. I have no doubt that together we will ensure Powerman Malaysia continues to reinforce its position as the World’s largest and most prestigious duathlon.

Whatever your motivation and whichever race you are competing in, I wish all athletes the best of luck.

See you at the finish line!
