The IRONMAN 70.3 It's more than an endurance competition; it's an event that tests determination, discipline, and teamwork. In this edition, UMECIT enthusiastically joined this great sporting event, reaffirming its commitment to volunteerism, community service, and the values that characterize us as an institution.

Our university community, comprised of students, faculty, and staff, actively participated as volunteers, playing key roles in event logistics. These included assisting athletes with physical therapy, assembling kits, assisting at hydration stations, awarding medals, and creating media content. 

Volunteering that transforms

Be part of the IRONMAN 70.3 Not only did this allow us to contribute to the event's success, but it also provided us with an experience of personal and professional growth.
