Back to Cycling After 84 Shots!
I thought that running a marathon was a pretty big accomplishment. I have done three of them – one each year for the last three years. However, Ironman is a whole other ball of wax.

We attempted to get pictures of every part of the event, every transition, and of course, yell our support as many times as we could. Well, to make a very long story short, our guys completed the Ironman event in 13 and 14 hours respectively. They were hoping to complete it in one hour less than they did – but the temperature was hot and the first-timers encountered a few mishaps along the way. Continue [ 1 | 2 | 3 ] |
