My wife and I crossed the start line at 7:20 a.m. I crossed the finish line at 11:54 p.m. after 16 hours and 34 minutes of swimming, riding and running a total of 140.6 miles. My wife finished an hour before me.
Seven years ago today, I did my first, last and only triathlon. It was the Louisville, Kentucky, event. That day, like today in Pennsylvania, the temperature was in the mid-90s with 90% humidity.
Since that very long day, I had a knee replaced, lost partial use of my left arm. I will never do another Ironman, but I am very glad I did the one I finished seven years ago today.
I have written several blog posts about the Ironman. They are here.
