The Ironman 70.3 Davao, the fourth edition to be staged in Davao City, will kick off the Kadayawan sa Dabaw Festival on August 11, 2024 in an out-and-back course from the Davao Coastal Road.
Princess Galura, president and general manager of Sunrise Events Inc., a part of the IRONMAN Group, said, From usually having it in March, it will be scheduled in August instead since the water is calmer during that month. We will be the opening salvo of the Kadayawan.
This date change was prompted by feedback from this year's participants who noted rough waters during the previous race.
Galura thanked Davao City Mayor Sebastian Baste Duterte for his continued support in hosting the Ironman 70.3 Davao.
Registration is ongoing with tier 1 already sold out, with only few slots remaining for tier 2.
