– Endurance swimmer Ingemar ‘Pinoy Aquaman’ Macarine set another record on Saturday as the first to cross the channel in Masbate, from Bugtong Island in the town of Pio V. Corpus to Barangay Matayum in Cataingan town, a distance of 10.5 kilometers.
Macarine got into open water swims as part of his lifetime advocacy for marine resource protection, environmental tourism and climate change awareness. “I was enduring the crisscrossing currents approaching the lagoon, hurdled it as I speeded up my stroke,” he said. Macaroni swam the cold waters of Lake Michigan, USA in July last year with a few Filipino-American multi-sports enthusiasts but the 10-kilometer swim was aborted after five kilometers due to rough waters.
