Finishing an ironman is an accomplishment of a lifetime. It takes an average joe to one year to train all 3 disciplines. And even that, when race day comes, you still have doubts as to how to battle 3.6km swim, 180km bike and a full marathon in the end.

We all know who the champions will be, and their news is splattered all over. But it's the normal guys and people who we think are handicapped, who kept on training, that inspires deeply.

Congrats all....you now deserve to be called "ironman".

TQVM Bro.

It was the best race of my life. My initial doubt of not being able to kau tim the swim was the main concern, once that was concerned, i was smilling from ear to ear all thorough the race!

I race to beat one person!!!
