QUORUM International Inc., the parent company of leading sports retailers Runnr and Toby’s Sports, has linked up with Ironman Philippines organizer Sunrise Events, Inc., making its top triathlon footwear Hoka the official shoe of the first full distance Ironman Philippines.

“Ironman has met such incredible fanfare in the Philippines and the same can be said about Hoka One, the fastest growing running shoe brand in the country in 2017, making this partnership a big deal in the running and triathlon community,” said Toby Claudio, president of Quorum Int’l. Inc. and founder of Runnr during yesterday’s contract signing at Runnr Store at Bonifacio Global City. “As the leading sports organization in the country, we continue to partner with companies that best represent our advocacy of promoting sports and fitness to Filipinos nationwide. Sunrise Events, Inc., a premier organizer of world-class sporting events in the Philippines, definitely fits the bill.”
