Being a Cebuana, I’m very proud that Ironman hosted in Cebu is one of the best in the Southeast Asia, and that we get to host the Asia-Pacific Championship in 2016.
But honestly, Cebu Cobra Ironman 70.3 2015 was my yet first close encounter of it. I got mixed up with media people invited to the Team Saucony’s press conference. So there, my first close encounter with Cobra Ironman in Cebu was brought about the SHOES, Saucony shoes.
So it got me curious, what were the shoes of choice of the top winners of Cobra Ironman 703 2015 in Cebu?

I tried looking for an article or his sponsor for footwear but I cannot seem to find one. But the 3-stripe definitely says Adidas.
