Ironman Cartagena

Anyone knows about the rumors lately of a 70.3 or full Ironman in Cartagena Colombia for 2014? That will be awesome great beaches and safe vacation spot.

Haven’t heard anything about it, but I used to live there. If it’s true, I’d do it in a heartbeat - heat and humidity notwithstanding!

I know that they have lots of international chain hotels and it is a global tourist destination. Just like Kona. I heard that it might be scheduled for their spring time so temps and humidity will be low. Also heard that Cafe Colombia might be a title sponsor as they are already sponsoring International soccer events. The ITU world cup was there a couple years ago! Hopefully WTC has a long term vision on this as this will be a hit in the southern hemisphere.

My family owns a boutique hotel in Cartagena - not sure how we’d be able to get involved, but it would be awesome to be a part of it and help in whatever way possible. If you know anyone who might be involved with the organization, please tell me - I’d love to get in touch with them!

Have you heard rumors or are you starting one? Seriously though, it would be nice to have another full in South America.

Francisco the person to get in touch with reference the new 70.3 Cartagena is Edwin Vargas from Team Trainer.
