Hi from Madison!
yourmomscheese
Do they have everyone run across the finish alone for sweet photo opps? Or just so spread out because of how long the race is?
Magickittentaxi
It's very spread out.
Adamwesticle
Ironman btw
Vallanth
Thanks for the bus detour, jerk!.... also congratulations.
arcgap
Had to sit at an intersection waiting for you to go through Sunday, I WANT MY 10 MINUTES BACK!
Magickittentaxi
hahah I was running as fast as I could.
slightskew
Having just done my first Olympic tri ... you were probably running faster than you thought you were!
FundamentallyFacetious
You run faster with your arms down.good job though. I bet that was killer on the shoulders.

But did they give you a ribbon and a bumper sticker to make people feel inferior? Of course not, fucking elitists.

Can't imagine the hard work and tenacity involved. Congrats bro! Now go eat something not good for you. Deserve it.
koboshi

Mad respect dude
EnglishCrumpet
Know a guy who did the lanzarote ironman. Did it in a comedy tshirt, made it onto their website as that years only 'fun runner'.

Don't keep us in suspense, where's the suit?

That's Maddison Wisconsin!
JenAwesome
I was gonna ask if it was Madison, WI!!!
Peteybird1112
As a person who lives here, I saw a bunch of people running and just assumed the apocalypse was starting
GrampaJack
Sconnie!!
MistehrFarenheit

That's awesome!! Was it your first one? What an accomplishment!! I can't even run 10km without wanting to die
Magickittentaxi
Thanks. Yes it was my first. Remember it's all mental and you can finish a 10km.
greencookiemonster
Nice! I'm working on doing one next year.
ChocolateChickenWaffle
I'm pretty active but I couldn't imagine myself doing one because I suck at swimming. Swimmming for 1.2 miles? Damn.
daJewJitsu
Actually it is 2.4. 1.2 is for the 1/2 Iron and truthfully it isn't as far as bad as you think.
ChocolateChickenWaffle
The race in Madison, Wisconsin was a Ironman 70.3 so it is 1.2 miles.
daJewJitsu
I was in Racine last year for the 70.3 - race was a cluster. Swim was cancelled and bike route shortened.
ChocolateChickenWaffle
Right now I probably only fit enough for the bike leg of a 70.3 but I don't like the idea of triathlon anyway. Good luck!
thefiresofheaven
a-are you single?
Magickittentaxi
7 days of the week.
thefiresofheaven
*fans self rapidly*
notinitforthepoints
You didn't ask if he was ready to mingle though.
thefiresofheaven
@Magickittentaxi are you ready to mingle?
Magickittentaxi
Always ready :)

Have you watched any other Marvel movies?

I was just going to say I don't see Tony Stark anywhere in this picture...
sunyudai
Giggity.
autopia
The image doesn't seem related to Iron Man at all. Not sure why OP chose it.
Magickittentaxi
Hahah it's a triathlon that is a 2.4 mile Swim followed by 112 mile bike than a 26.2 run.
GuacamoleIsAlwaysExtra
Well to be honest ironman is a brand not a distance.
Obsesionz
How does one train for this if you don't have pool access or a bike?
GuacamoleIsAlwaysExtra
It would prov to be incredibly difficult
sarabearr
A lot of cardio, I'd imagine.
DanDippity
Looks like you're about to roll your ankle.
ff36
Looks like he's mid Highland Fling
Magickittentaxi
Yea I don't have the best form.
xXPawnStarrXx
"Best form" looks like you run on the sides of your feet :P
greencookiemonster
Try barefoot running. It helps a ton, because it makes you focus on your form so even if you don't end up racing barefoot it still helps.
Ronjemin
I wear minimal shoes and did 1/4 of what this guy did and may have a stress fracture in my foot from little supporting shoes
greencookiemonster
That's lack of training though. You can't just jump in a pool without swimming and expect to do 1.2 miles. You have to build the muscles 1/2
greencookiemonster
in your feet to support the extra stress of lack of support. Humans have only had support for what 100 years? We've existed for how long?
grilljanne
You can't blame the shoes for that though. Humans weren't incapable of running a marathon before shoes with cushioning were invented.
Ronjemin
But we weren't running on concrete either
Hamncheezsandwich
Why this comment? The guy just finished what most will never and you STILL have some know-it-all remark.
IsaacArseneau
That's just good advice though, from what I assume is one runner to another, OP even admitted to not having "the best form"
Hamncheezsandwich
Missed the point. When ppl graduate, it's not not appropriate to say "try studying harder, it'll be easier." you just congratulate them.
greencookiemonster
Because I do the same exact thing? I do triathlons, and I'm training for my first next year. Just passing along advice I discovered. Geez.
Hamncheezsandwich
Congratulations and good luck, but you should know that many races still force footwear ITU style.
