What is Ironman?
Ironman is one of the most grueling events in the world of sports, and also one of the most inspiring. Ironman features a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride and a complete marathon (26.2 miles), all in succession. Athletes have 17 hours to complete the event (from the 7 a.m. start until midnight).

Patricia says: “It was such an amazing experience and one that I will never forget. I’ve been asked if I would do it again. While the training was half the battle and the race was tough, I would never say never!”
