Post of note for the day: St George Ironman and a first hand experience

You gotta read this kid's Ironman story.

I literally had tears running down my face, and I don't even know him!


PS - they pulled about 200 swimmers from the lake due to white caps, and another 200 from the course later due to time.  It was the most brutal Ironman in all of St George history.  To have actually finished is more than just an achievement, it's an amazing feat of strength!

And thank you Countess for sharing.......

Amazing story. Thanks for sharing. How do you find these sites? I just got a new bike and I really suck. It is nice to know that at all levels, accomplishing something is a challenge for everyone.
