A marathon at the belly button of the world.
"Te Pito o Te Henua" — the belly button of the world — is what the Rapa Nui named this island. Run the full or half among the Moai…
2026 · SEVEN CONTINENTS FINISHER
FROM THE ANDES TO EASTER ISLAND
"He started out chasing his father. He finished chasing the whole world."
Ignacio grew up in the Andes, running since childhood — chasing his father in the era before Garmins, gels, and dedicated running shoes. He likely ran marathons in his youth without ever knowing the distance, fueling on nothing but Coke and sugared bread.
His official marathon story began in 2011, when a fearless team leader talked him into his first Boston Marathon. From there he set his sights on the Seven Continents and the World Marathon Majors, adding an Ironman finish in 2023 under the guidance of Coach Mauritz.
The hardest miles came at the ends of the Earth. He ran both polar races with us — the North Pole Marathon and the Antarctic Ice Marathon — the accomplishments he still ranks above all others. In 2026 he crossed the line on Easter Island to complete all seven continents, taking home his Seven Continents medal and his global Grand Slam.
