Ironman Hawaii - Report from the Sideline

We were very proud to have our virtual Coach Paolina (Gens older sister) competing at the Ironman World Champs in Kona, Hawaii last Saturday.
As with all her Pro Ironman appearances we sat up late into the early hours watching the live video feed on IronmanLive & saw her come over the line at 4.00am. I could hardly see the screen as my eyes were glazed over with tiredness but I guess she was slightly more tired having completed an Ironman in 100 degrees. Can't really imagine what that would feel like - I thought Calella was hot.

Pollys Coach & Husband Steve Fleck has more than a finger in the Triathlon Pie & so somehow managed to get himself on the back of a motorbike travelling alongside the male race leaders on the bike course. Stephen has written a great report right from the sharp end of the event which can be seen on the following link.
