Pete Jacobs of Sydney, Australia withstood the hot and humid weather to win in the Cobra Energy Drink Ironman 70.3 Philippines in the CamSur Watersports Complex. Jacobs timed 3:58:41
“It feels so nice to win it. This is my first win in the 70.3 distance. This (Cobra Ironman) is my favorite race. The support was non-stop. It was a little bit disorienting. You couldn’t tell whether you were inside the town or outside. There were always so many people. The cheering was non-stop,” said Jacobs.
Placing second behind the 29-year-old Jacobs was last year’s champion Terenzo Bozzone, 25, who timed 4:05:54. Jacobs had to outlast Bozzone, of Auckland, New Zealand, in the run leg, even trailing the former champion briefly early in the run.
Thirty year old Fredrik Croneborg of Sundborn, Sweden, took home third place with a time of 4:14:36.
Magali Tisseyre of Canada, 2009 Ironman 70.3 Boise champion, won the women’s category. She timed 4:27:01. Michellie Jones of Australia, 2006 Ironman World Champion and 2000 Olympic silver medalist, grabbed second place. She had a time of 4:29:23. Rachael Paxton, with a time of 4:42:38, took third place.
