@schusterlehrling obviously you dont understand what sports are about, this women had just spent her entire day competing to win this race, and months before that training , if officials had taken her out of the race she would have been livid, and dissapointed, she would have chalked it up as a failure, so she did what she felt she had to do, she used every ounce of energy to finish the race. If thats not inspiring to you, then i wonder what is

@JamesBoy4LifeMan4Luv i'm not sure. the ironman is what 2.4 mile swim, 100+ on a bike and a marathon. Ridiculously amazing to be sure. But i've read the tour de france is the equivalent of doing something like energy equivalent of running about 20 marathons in in 20 days days. I'd bet the toll on your body over a month would be bigger. i bet this is more energy in a single day but tour seems like more over time. but both are amazing.

exactly and triathalons are for long peroids of time. There is a reason why triathalon runners are all skinny. i know a guy who competes and he has heart problems, he is 20 years old.
