Herbalife Bali International Triathlon

The tenth annual Herbalife Bali International Triathlon returns to the Island of the Gods on October 15, 2017. This “Triathlon for the Soul” now has a new course steeped in Balinese culture, starting and finishing in Sanur, the largest traditional village in Bali.

The new course changes will improve safety and the athlete experience. Sanur, the largest traditional village in Bali, is less developed than Jimbaran Bay and will allow for full road closures and add in additional traditional Balinese cultural experiences.

First held in 2007,  the 10^th running of  the Herbalife Bali International Triathlon will be held on Sunday, October 15, 2017.

To accommodate a growing number of race participants and spectators, the 2017 Herbalife Bali International Triathlon will remain at the picturesque and welcoming traditional village of Sanur.

As in years past, the swim start of the race starts just after sunrise with this year’s race stroking the calms waters off Sanur’s Mertasari Beach, followed by bike sprints down the Ngurah Rai By Pass in Sanur to the IB Mantra By Pass in Gianyar and back to the beach side transition area before finishing with a road race through the streets of Sanur.

This year’s title sponsor, Herbalife Indonesia, is part of the worldwide nutritional organization, now working in 90 nations around the world.

Back in 2017 as the title sponsor, Herbalife’s championing of good health, sound nutrition and a healthful life style is a mirror-reflection of the lifestyle embraced by dedicated triathletes.
