WELCOME TO XTERRA - THE WORLD’S LEADING OFF-ROAD TRI In 1996 mountain biking and triathlon met in a duel of the fittest on the island of Maui. The race consisted of an open- ocean swim, a mountain bike race, and a trail run. It represented a bold new racing format that attracted outdoor enthusiasts, adventure seekers, mountain bikers and triathletes. The mountain bikers brought their laid-back style and bold self-assurance. The triathletes brought their hard-core training and avid dedication. They soon discovered a common spirit and attitude that pulled them together.The relationship would become an internationally- recognized brand called XTERRA. Since that day, XTERRA has grown into the world’s leading off-road triathlon with more than 100 races in 15 countries, including 70 in the XTERRA America Tour alone. A typical XTERRA is comprised of the following: 1.5 kilometer (0.93-mile) swim in an ocean, lake, or river 30 kilometer (18.6-mile) mountain bike on off-road trails 10 kilometer (6.2-mile) trail run on a variety of surfaces 2012 marks the 17th consecutive year of XTERRA racing.

    ISO 9001:2008 CERTIFIED NEWSPAPER 12 January 2013 30 Safar 1434 - Volume 17 Number 5577 Price: QR2 ON SATURDAY Chilly winds to bring mercury down further DOHA: Winter has finally arrived in Qatar, and weather forecasters have pre- dicted a chiller day today with winds con- tinuing and getting stronger at places. High pressure over the Arabian Gulf is causing the windy weather, and north-west- erly winds blowing from Europe will bring in more chill, according to the forecasters. There will be slight dust and high seas offshore. The minimum temperature in Doha is expected to be 13 degrees Celsius, while day temperatures are forecast to be around 20 degrees Celsius. Abu Samra is to witness the coldest day so far today with the maximum tempera- ture forecast at 17 degrees Celsius, while the night is to be colder with the mercury dropping to 11 degrees Celsius. Winds will be strong with dust in the coastal area compared to other parts of the country because of the high pressure pre- vailing over the Gulf. The winds will cause the sea to be high and rough, a forecaster said. The haze caused by strong winds and clouds at places would reduce visibility to a moderate level of three to seven kilometres. The wind will continue to blow from the north-westerly direction with a speed of 15 to 25 knots onshore and up to 25 to 35 knots offshore. Strong winds in the coastal areas will affect open places, leading to dust in the air and affecting visibility. Waves are likely to reach a height of two to four feet near the shore and nine to 13 feet offshore.
