Who is Boston's Nepali Iron Man? 🚀🔥✅

From Boston to Abu Dhabi: Santosh Karmacharya Represents Nepal

Boston-based Nepali endurance athlete Santosh Karmacharya is set to represent Nepal at the 2026 World Triathlon Long Distance Championships, scheduled for November 22 on Hudayriyat Island, Abu Dhabi. The race combines a 3 km swim, 120 km bike ride, and 30 km run—a demanding test of endurance across three disciplines.

Santosh brings experience in endurance sports. A 2024 profile in 8850 Media documented his completion of six full Ironman triathlons, twenty half Ironman races, and numerous ultramarathons. Beyond competition, he is the founder of Om Namo Center in Belmont, Massachusetts, where his work includes yoga, bodywork, and personal training.

As he takes on this international challenge carrying Nepal’s flag, we wish him strength through every swim stroke, pedal turn, and running stride.

All the best, Santosh—Boston is cheering for you, and Nepal’s flag goes with you! 🇳🇵
