The finisher’s medal in this year’s Cobra IronMan 70.3 Asia Pacific Championship will symbolize the kind of effort that a participant has to put in to conquer the grueling race.
Renowned Cebuano designer Kenneth Cobonpue unveiled the medal in Friday’s “Meet The Pros” press conference at Shangri-la Mactan.
Last year’s medal, made of cast stone and resin, had miniature figures representing Ironman’s three sporting events—swimming, cycling and running.
“Our inspiration this time is the heart. I know that when you run the race and you feel like giving up, you’re in this dark place, and it’s your heart that keeps you going,” said Cobonpue.
