Participants shrugged off the afternoon drizzle as they joined the Underpants Run presented by Sun Life on Friday, June 5, in Subic Bay Freeport.

One of the featured pre-race activities leading up to IRONMAN Subic Bay, the event gave athletes a fun and relaxed opportunity to loosen up and shake out their legs ahead of race day.

A long-standing IRONMAN tradition worldwide, the Underpants Run brought together athletes, supporters, and families for a lighthearted run through Subic Bay as excitement built for the weekend competition. The event provided participants a chance to connect with the community, enjoy the festive atmosphere, and celebrate their journey toward the starting line.

Beyond the race itself, the Underpants Run highlighted the camaraderie, friendship, and sense of fun that have become hallmarks of the IRONMAN experience both on and off the course. (Text and photos by Jun Dumaguing for Ang Pahayagan)
