The series of Enticer Races will start this Saturday at Paupau Beach.

The on-road bike course will be from Paupau to Banzai and back and the run leg will be up to FEBC sign and back to the starting line. For the off-road course, bikers will leave Paupau and then head right to Marianas Country Club up to the one million gallon tank, turn left to FEBC road, left to middle road, and then another left turn back to the starting line. For the run leg, triathletes must turn right up to the one million gallon tank and return to Paupau.

The series of Enticer races will be held to prepare triathletes for the 2012 XTERRA Saipan Championship and Tagaman Triatlon, which will be held on March 24 and 31, respectively.
