2012 Huatulco ITU World Cup Triathlon

The 2012 Huatulco ITU World Cup Triathlon is coming back this May 6th and is a professional only event this time around. 

The competition is going to be fierce this time around as the athletes will be vying for Olympic qualifying points.

This is the first time that this event has been held in May and it is sure to be a hot one!  May is typically one of the hottest months down here as the transition in seasons goes from very dry to the first rains of the year.

The 1.5 km swim will begin on beautiful Playa Santa Cruz.  Once the athletes exit the water they will head for the transition area for the bike stage which will last for a total of 40km.  From here, the final stage will be the 10 km run and the heat at this point in the morning will be a huge factor.

If you have not been to this event before and can sneek away for a little vacation come on down and enjoy this great event.

See you all soon!
