The IRONMAN Group and Sunrise Events President Princess Galura said over 600 triathletes registered for the 5150 triathlon and the Go for Gold Sunrise Sprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the second year of its participation in the Sandugo celebration, the 5150 Triathlon is a demonstration of the Sandugo which honors the first International Treaty of Friendship and a showcase of the province\u2019s arts, culture and heritage, Sandugo Committee representative John Maraguinot stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cong. Aumentado for her part, thanked Sun Life and the IRONMAN Group for consistently choosing Bohol as a venue for their activity, helping Bohol tourism get back on its feet. She also highlighted Bohol\u2019s recent designation as UNESCO Global Geopark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Galura congratulated Bohol on this designation and said this only proves the province is the best destination, having been the home of 5150 for 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBohol is the best race station in our calendar with the province\u2019s world-class beaches, first-class hotels, and its new airport that is able to bring in athletes\u2019 equipment and gear,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 5150 event allows opportunities for new triathlon enthusiasts and regulars coming back like Sun Life endorser Piolo Pascual who is racing this year along with fellow endorser, Matteo Guidicelli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
