Triathlete-lawyer Ingemar Macarine, also known as the “Pinoy Aquaman,” completed yet another swim that not only tested his limits but also sought to promote his advocacies in Masbate on Saturday. | leoudtohanINQ /PDI
He crossed the distance between Masbate’s Bugtong Island and Cataingan town, providing one of the highlights of the province’s Bagat Dagat Festival this year . Macarine got going around 7 a.m. from Bugtong, encountering strong currents that kept pulling him off course and forcing him at times to change direction. He made it to Barangay Matayum, Cataingan town, at 11:24 a.m.
“It was so challenging that I thought I could not make it,” said Macarine, who had spent a month preparing his mind, body and spirit for that day. “I have daily maintenance for my asthma, which I take religiously,’’ Macarine said. “Swimming alone cannot cure my asthma. If it can, then would’ve been gone a long time ago.”
For Kho, Macarine’s advocacies for the province underscored Masbate’s drive for sustainable development as “the capital ship point in the Philippines.”
