Visitors to the Mazda London Triathlon this weekend are being offered the chance to win entry into Spain’s most popular swim-bike-run event by London Triathlon headline sponsor Mazda UK and event organiser IMG.



As well as receiving two places to compete in the stunning Garmin Barcelona Triathlon in Spain’s Catalonia region, the winner will also get flights and two night’s accommodation in the four-star Barcelona Princess Hotel.



Visitors can enter the prize draw by filling an entry form at the Mazda Suite, located near the finish line of the Mazda London Triathlon, at London’s ExCeL centre, Docklands, on 1 and 2 August.



“This is a fantastic opportunity to win entry into Spain’s most popular triathlon and visit one of Europe’s truly exciting cities,” comments Mark Cameron, Mazda UK sales and marketing director. “The Garmin Barcelona Triathlon proved a huge success in 2008, with over 2,500 competitors from around the world taking part, and this year’s event is set to be even bigger and better.”



The Garmin Barcelona Triathlon takes place on Sunday 18 October at La Mar Bella stadium, which is located in Avenida Litoral, Barcelona. The race starts on Mar Bella beach for the sea swim, followed by a bike route that captures the city’s impressive monuments and architecture, and finally a coastal run that finishes back at the beach.



Now in its 13th year, the Mazda London Triathlon is the world’s largest triathlon and each year raises more than £3 million for various charities. The race takes in major London Landmarks including, Big Ben, The London Eye and Tower Bridge.
