2013 Vaseline Men TERRA Off-road Triathlon Series.

After staging successful series of off-road action events last year, Vaseline Men, the fastest growing men’s skin care brand in the Philippines again challenges you to conquer your limits in the 2013 Vaseline Men XTERRA Off-road Triathlon Series, organizers said during the media launching on Tuesday at the Dusit Thani Hotel in Makati.

Dubbed as the world’s premier off-road triathlon event, the Vaseline Men XTERRA Off-road Triathlon Series will kick off this year with the Vaseline Men XTERRA Championship Weekend.

Slated on March 2-3, the event features exhilarating trail run and triathlon races that will challenge even the most seasoned athletes. On its second year, Vaseline Men will again bring triathletes to the pristine waters and rough but picturesque terrains of Liloan, Cebu for a more exciting set of challenges.

Raquin, Raterta tops Condura Skyway Marathon

Ireneo Raquim raises his trophy after winning the 42k
 men's race. With Raquim were Ton Concepcion,
Condura Skyway Marathon Founder and Chief Organizing
 Officer and Ramon Borromeo,  Skyway President.

Irineo Raquim kept his distance from two other pursuers and crowned himself as the overall men’s 42-kilometer champion of the Condura Skyway Marathon on Sunday, organizers said in a press statement released to media organizations.

He reached the Spectrum Ave. finish line in Filinvest City, Alabang in two hours, 38 minutes and 38 seconds, and was five minutes ahead of Army rival Elmer Sabal.

Since no foreign runner came up with a podium finish in eight categories on tap, the 25-year old Raquim then found himself getting a bonus.
