I mean what what drew you to doing something like an Iron Man Triathlon.

It's a great question I had often been training for a marathon and as I got deep into the marathon process I'd always find myself with shin splints or calf issues and then one day I was walking in my office and somebody had a photo that looked like they were crossing the finish line I said.

You've done a marathon congratulations that's really cool I've been trying to train for one but keep getting injured and she said no pal that was an Iron Man and we got talking about Iron Man and she talked me into signing up for sprint triathlon.
