Today was the 10th running (swimming, and biking) of the Lake Placid Ironman Triathalon. I was checking out the results and came across this video.....

If you're unfamiliar with the Ironman it is THE premier triathalon - a total of over 140.6 total miles in broken up into:
swimming 2.4 miles
biking 112 miles
running 26.2 miles (a full marathon).
The unofficial fourth event is the praying that each competitor does during the other three events ;) Each person has up to 17 hours to complete it (elite traithaloners finish it between 9-10 hours).

Makes my 5 mile run this morning seem like small potatoes! :)
