The aim of this book is to depict the 'Heart of an Ironman(R) South Africa'. What inspired competitors to start training and ultimately complete an Ironman(R) triathlon challenge?
What makes them tick; what inspires them to keep coming back; what have they gained from competing in this race? This book tells the tale of the heartache that eventually resulted in participants overcoming pain, finally accepting themselves, making life-changing decisions, becoming an athlete or realizing a lifetime dream. The Heart of an Ironman(R) will also unlock the dreams of many people through sharing the victories, trials, obstacles and disappointments of those who did not succeed the first time. It also provides newcomers and athletes who are considering competing in either the Spec-Savers Ironman(R) South Africa event or the Spec-Savers Ironman(R) 70.3(R) South Africa event, with valuable information provided by fellow competitors, and medical and sporting professionals, as to how to overcome obstacles.
