It’s all systems go in Cebu, as over 2,000 participants from
33 countries in 5 continents set to arrive for the fifth Cobra Ironman 70.3 to
be held on August 5. Participants are vying for a chance to qualify for the
Ironman World Championships in Las Vegas Nevada to be held a month later. For
the fifth consecutive year, Summit Natural Drinking Water will be the official
hydration partner of the entire leg of the race.
The route will begin at Shangri-La’s Mactan Resort and Spa,
where athletes have to complete a 1.2-mile swim in open water. They will then
traverse Lapu-Lapu, Mandaue, Cebu, and Talisay Cities for the 56-mile bike leg,
finishing up at Punta Engaño for a 13.1-mile run.
Hydration stations will be set up along the track by Summit Natural
Drinking Water at 17 intervals along the swim-bike-run race course. The brand
has been the official hydration partner of Cobra Ironman since the first
sanctioned competition held in 2008.
Says Angelie Ong, Senior Brand Manager for Summit Natural
Drinking Water, “Our commitment to making the Cobra Ironman 70.3 a success
matches the triathletes’ commitment to seeing the race through – all 70.3 miles
of it.
Summit Natural Drinking Water is the official
bottled water of Philippine national athletes. It has helped aspiring Filipino
athletes maintain superior concentration and athletic edge with minerals that
boost their hydration level. It comes from natural underground sources around
Mt. Makiling in Laguna and is further processed by ionization and filtration,
making it clean and refreshing. For more information on the drink that empowers
