Camiguin: New haven for triathletes

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — The 5150 Triathlon Series is reaching out to new shores with the inaugural 5150 Camiguin set to take place on May 3 next year, in the island province in Northern Mindanao.

Known as the “Island Born of Fire,” Camiguin is a tropical gem renowned for its seven volcanoes, pristine white sandbars, and centuries-old heritage sites. The island’s breathtaking scenery and warm hospitality will offer triathletes a truly memorable race experience – one that highlights both adventure and cultural discovery.

The 5150 Camiguin will mark another milestone for the Philippines’ growing triathlon community and tourism industry. Athletes will dive into the crystal-clear waters off Old Catarman, racing past the iconic Sunken Cemetery Monument, one of Camiguin’s most striking landmarks. The bike course follows a scenic two-loop route along the island’s Circumferential Road, showcasing panoramic coastal views and lush countryside.

The concluding race stage will culminate at the Camiguin Sports Complex.
