BOZZONE, BENTLEY RULE IN CAMSUR

PILI, Camarines Sur – The blistering heat and the star-studded field proved no match to reigning 70.3 world champion Terenzo Bozzone of New Zealand who posted a come-from-behind victory in the inaugural Cobra Energy Drink Ironman 70.3 Philippines held yesterday at the Cam Sur Watersports Complex.

Eleven-time Ironman Champion at the Hawaii Ironman Championship Lisa Bentley of Canada likewise had to overhaul an early deficit to post her own scrambling victory in the women’s category of the lung-busting race.
