Ironman Triathlon TRAINING to FINISH to INTENSIVE CARE 3/3

YouTube would not allow my music for this clip. They threw on this song. (Caution: Graphic Images at the end!) After watching my brother finish the Ironman I asked him to begin training me. 12 months later I was in Coeur D' Alene to attempt my first Ironman. My back gave out the first day in town and I spent the next 4 days in bed or the chiropractors office. I made it to the starting line and was doing good until I crashed on the bike. I couldnt breathe well after the wreck but finished the rest the bike and the marathon. After the race my wife took me to the hospital in Missoula. They discovered my right lung had collapsed and they immediately performed surgery. (Graphic images at the end of part 3). It was a rough year but an amazing experience. I have done another Ironman since and plan on many more in the future. Thank you to my family who supports me 100%.
