Powerman Malaysia 2022 Duathlon
You might be wondering why the Powerman Malaysia Duathlon is on our list of Halloween events in KL. The reason is simple: For those of us who dread going to the gym or exercising, nothing is scarier or more daunting than signing up for a duathlon. Even ghosts and monsters are no match for the horror of sweating it out under the sweltering sun. But if you’re looking to really face your fears (or train yourself to outrun the undead in the event of a zombie apocalypse), the Powerman has got you covered.
The 2022 race marks Powerman’s 17th edition, and it’s back with a vengeance. With a whopping 4,300 record-breaking participants hailing from over 35 countries across the world, the event is considered the world’s largest duathlon.
After a two-year-long hiatus, this highly-anticipated run-bike-run duathlon will be flagging off at Dataran Putrajaya and will comprise participants from Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, and Japan. More details here.
When: October 30 2022, 6.15am to 12pm.
Where: Dataran Putrajaya
