I have respect for anybody that can run 26 miles without stopping.

Why we watch the Ironman race here every year. What those people do is beyond belief.

I always hated running. "If it does not injure you, it will bore you to death".

Biking was fun though, but that ride up to Hawi and back is still insane, with the marathon to come right after.

I was actually on the Big Island for the 2011 Ironman race.

Not that I participated! Hell no, I was a spectator and the most exercise I did that day was lifting glasses of Mai Tai. Those athletes did know how to party though. Ali'i Drive in Kona was a madhouse until the wee hours of the morning.
