TK Finishes the Kona Ironman!

cover

Months of hard training were paid off when the Tony Kanaan crossed the finish line of the 2011 Kona Ironman. He looked at the event clock, it was showing 12 hours, 52 minutes and 40 seconds. He smiled and walked towards Vitor Meira, fellow IndyCar dirver and triathlon training partner. They congratulated each other for their feats during a long hug. Only the two of them knows how hard it was to tackle the training for the grueling 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride and 26 mile run of the Ironman during their regular Izod IndyCar season. Tony, who had never run a marathon distance before this Saturday, ran the full Ironman in less than 13 hours, a respectful time for an amateur first timer.
