View MoreWhen/if someone joins this group, I just wanted to say hello, welcome you, and tell you a bit about myself since I started this group. Thanks for being here, and I hope that you can find a source of inspiration from here!.. even if you can't or didnt want to become an Ironman Triathlete in your life.
In case you didn't know, in an Ironman Triathlon an individual must complete a 2.4-mile (3.86 km) swim, a 112-mile (180.25 km) bicycle ride and a marathon 26.22-mile (42.20 km) run, raced in that order. To truly complete it, those events ought to be completed within one 24 hour period. From what I've heard, the cycling portion is the most difficult and grueling because it takes about 8 hours for an average athlete with a good bike to cycle that far.
I'd certainly welcome anything related to running, swimming, cycling, equipment related to those activities, excursions or general topics related to training or running triathlons, and any events related to cardiovascular or muscle/mind training that you'd like to promote. I haven't run an Ironman yet, but I am good enough to do the 112 mile ride. I've done that about 10 times over the last couple of years. Check out my profile/activity on Strava, if you're curious. I typically friend anyone who sends me a request on Strava.
