Mr and Ms Zimbabwe preparations in full swing

PREPARATION for the 2015 edition of the Mr and Ms Zimbabwe bodybuilding spectacle set for October 17 at 7 Arts Theatre in Harare has gathered momentum.

The National Federation of Zimbabwe Bodybuilding and Fitness (NFZBBF) says it expects at least 150 athletes to take to the stage this time around.

According to Standard Sport, NFZBBF spokesperson Quiet Shangai confirmed that preparations were in full swing for the staging of a memorable event while they were still to finalise sponsorship deals.

Champion Chienderamwano is the current Mr. Ironman and will be defending his title next month.

His tightly-contested victory in Kadoma at the beginning of this month, where he wrested the Mr Iron man crown from the ageless Isaac Chimuchenga and subdued Blessing Samaringa into second place, sets the tone for yet another gruelling battle.
