What does it take to achieve success in sport (or in life, for that matter)? You first have to make the decision to start and then commit to making the journey. You’ll have fun, make new friends, get strong, and yes, you’ll also feel frustration, be overwhelmed, and fail to meet goals.
But if you ever think about throwing in the towel, then find inspiration and motivation from these women who competed in and crossed the finish line at the 2015 Ironman 70.3 World Championships, held on August 30 in Austria. Each triathlete swam 1.2-miles of open water, biked 56 miles on a mountainous course, and then ran 13.1 miles.
While each of their personal lives is unique, rest assured, they, too, experienced moments of self-doubt, frustration, injury, and other challenges. But they stayed true to their dreams and persisted!
Congratulations to the following women (as well as all the other triathletes) who competed in this tough race! You inspire us to be the best we can be in health, fitness and sport.
Note: The source of these results is from IRONMAN.com and are listed last name, first name, country, and total time.
