IronMan goes to Camiguin

MANILA, Philippines —  Athletes from 13 countries are set to converge on Northern Mindanao for a race unlike any other, as the inaugural IRONMAN 5150 Camiguin unfolds on May 3, bringing Olympic-distance triathlon action to an island famed for its raw beauty and volcanic edge.

Known as the “Island Born of Fire” for having the highest concentration of volcanoes per square kilometer in the world, Camiguin will host an event of this scale for the first time, offering competitors a striking new race environment that blends challenge with scenery.

Preparations are in full swing, with the organizing Sunrise Events, Inc. (SEI) working closely with the provincial government led by Gov. Xavier Jesus Romualdo. The collaboration, reinforced in recent coordination meetings, underscores a shared commitment to delivering a world-class race experience.
