Introducing Marina: The Marathon Princess Behind the Princess World Tour

Quintana Roo is excited to partner with Marina Angela Andresen, better known in the endurance world as the Marathon Princess. With over 100,000 followers on Instagram and a vibrant presence in the global triathlon and running community, Marina is not just a content creator, she’s a force of resilience, heart, and inspiration. Her story goes far beyond medals and finish lines. It's about fun, empowerment, and fitness over simply being fast.

Having completed 69 marathons, multiple ultra-distance races on the world’s toughest terrain, and two full IRONMANs, Marina is now embarking on the biggest journey of her life: the Princess World Tour. Her mission? To complete 10 full-distance triathlons on 4 continents in just 12 months—not for podiums, but to prove that even athletes without pro stats can achieve something extraordinary.

The Princess World Tour isn’t just an athletic feat. It’s a global storytelling project, a love letter to endurance sport, and a campaign for purpose-driven performance. Marina is raising $15,000 for the IRONMAN Foundation, supporting global causes including disaster relief and access to sport. The most emotional moment of the tour will come in Kona, where Marina will compete at the IRONMAN World Championship—and her mother, who has lived with Multiple Sclerosis for over 20 years, will be there to cheer her on and place the finisher medal around her neck.

Throughout this tour, Marina will race on her new Quintana Roo V-PRi, while highlighting unique race destinations, training across breathtaking landscapes, and telling human-first stories from within the triathlon community, all while inspiring her audience to believe that anything is possible when you race with heart.

We are proud to support Marina as a QR athlete and can’t wait to see where her journey takes her next. From Kalmar to Kona and beyond—let the Princess World Tour begin.
