I haven't been to Lombok for 10 years. It is the beautiful but poor relation of Bali amd I competed in the first Lombok Triathlon - billed as 'the toughest race in Asia'. Perhaps this was ill conceived marketing and perhaps 'most beautiful race in Asia' might have attracted a bigger field. The distances were the same as the Phuket Triathlon (1800 swim, 55 km bike and 12 km run), but the run and particularly the bike were hillier. I finished 2nd in the 45 - 49 old blokes category and won this unique trophy.
