Kuala Langat, Selangor, Malaysia – The first-ever Titan 77.7 Long Distance Duathlon in Malaysia concluded successfully at the scenic Dataran Pantai Morib, Kuala Langat, marking a historic moment for the multisport scene in Southeast Asia.
Organized by GoRacePH, a Filipino sports event brand, in partnership with XS Elite Performance of Malaysia and supported by the local government of Kuala Langat and Tourism Malaysia, the event attracted elite endurance athletes from across the region.
The challenging 77.7-mile (125km) course consisting of a 4km run, 100km bike, and 21-km run tested the limits of competitors, living up to its reputation as Asia’s toughest duathlon. Filipino athlete Raymund Torio made history as the overall men’s champion, finishing with a time of 4:28:18 while Singapore’s Evangeline Tan emerged victorious in the women’s division, clocking a strong 5:20:24 to claim the title.
“Bringing a 100% Filipino brand to the international stage and seeing it thrive beyond the Philippines is a significant milestone for us and the multisport community. Titan 77.7 was born out of passion and determination in Clark Freeport, and today, its success in Malaysia shows the global appeal of Filipino excellence in endurance sports. We look forward to expanding this legacy and offering athletes worldwide a uniquely challenging multisport experience that embodies Filipino heart and grit,” said Jumbo Tayag, Race Director of GoRacePH.
The event weekend also featured the Titan Jr. Sprint distance race for first-time multisport athletes, further showcasing GoRacePH’s commitment to growing the multisports culture regionally.
Held amidst picturesque coastal views and supported by dedicated event partners like XS Elite Performance, Malaysia Tourism, and Majlis Perbandaran Kuala Langat, Titan 77.7 Malaysia sets a new benchmark in the regional endurance sports calendar, promising to return bigger and stronger in the years ahead.
