SirKarlosG - the guy in the green is Normann Stadler, a two-time Ironman World Champion (2004 and 2006). In 2005 and 2007, he didn't finish the race, so its really good to see him gut it out and finish in 2008. His best years may be behind him, but he's a great athlete. It definitely was inspirational to watch.
Did 70.3 on the hawllowed Hawaii course, I'm from Ireland, saddle came off bike, burnt to a crisp, 3rd degree burns, despite this I finsished in 6 hours F...incredible experience, that's Ironman...brilliant, this motivates me for next year
Chrissie and all multi-sport athletes who rolled for a Cure...a cure for ALS, to date no survivors. Thank you for having the courage to follow your hearts...raising awareness..."so others may live". In Strength, Honor and Freedom, Thank you for: "Remembering the -blazeman...Ironman's-Braveheart". With gratitude and appreciation for fighting the War On ALS...keeping his spirit alive. Amore, blazedad...jon's dad.
Thanks I'm a bit new to the ironman. Its great to see him finish :) I am really motivated to do one, one day not any time soon. I know whats its like to want to finish something and being held back by injury I'll always remember Normann never giving up :) Chrissie is great for Britain truly amazing!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! What an amazing video! I've been watching this video literally every day since I first watched it a couple of weeks ago. It is so inspirational. The music, the athletes, the scenery. I admire all of you Iron Men and Women. I'm 35 years old and a bit overweight and have never done a triathlon but I have just decided that it's never too late and I just started training for the Arizona Ironman in 2010. Videos like this motivate me so much! Thanks again!
Notice that both champions Alexander and Wellington both wear light, well vented cycling helmets as opposed to the popular aero ones which are hot and heavy.
@ rtc The performance of Chrisse is surely amazing. But only British People don´t ask how it´s possible that a woman that bought her first bike 3 years before on a jumble sale is able to make such bike-splits. Just a unique talent....
triatlon si...pero este kaso es ironman, ke k combina natación de fondo, una etapa de ciclismo y una maratón....hace falta 1º haber nacido kn un kuerpo preparado y 2º muchos..muchos años de entrenamiento
@TheLakemann Can you even run non-stop up the corner of your street or around your block? And don't BS me telling me you have done an Ultra-Ironman, an Ironman, or even an olympic triathlon. A true triathlete would have respect for the overall sport and its athletes.
it depends on how good you are ;> The first guy to finished did it in just over 8 hours - I think (?) there is a 17 hour deadline - you have to finish before then or you're DQ'd.
You become an IronMan much sooner than you are given the Mdot Medal. I still train between 20 and 40 hrs per week and I have no IM incoming... ... be advised, you can't QUIT being an IronMan. :)
Y'all Americans? Qualification is based on place in division... Not nationality! If you are talking about the lottery then there are more spots for Americans, but it's in America!
@glaros0 well,180km of cycling arent that hard,but the speed the got is insane.their average speed is about 42 km/h...atleast the fastest biker had it once on the ironman.
yea dude, honestly... ive been watchin this video for the past week nonstop. i love the song
Chrissie rolled for Jon and ALS awareness-what more could his mom ask for. Getting to know her and her big heart has been a joy...
Thank you Chrissie!
Good job McCormack! 2010 World Champion! I am a Chris Lieto fan but you did an amazing job on the bike and the run!!
Chrissie rolling again for Jon and ALS awareness...what more can a mom wish for except a cure. Thank you Chrissie!
ich habe so viel respekt vor diesen athleten.
diese menschen gehen weit über ihre grenzen hinaus !
