Run Section
The run section starts immediately after you finish the bike section. Triple IRON athlete Chris Bergland.
We use the same transition area as the bike on top of the hill. This is also the finish line. Double IRON athlete Astrid Benohr. Super hard worker Jon Clark manning the timing station.
Run turnaround at the other end of the course, 1.0075 mile leg. Each loop is 2.015 miles. Double IRON athletes will do 26 loops and Triple IRON athletes will do 39 loops.
Support Crews can be large.
Or small
Some, like Double IRON athlete Darrell Wargo, finish with a lot of vigor and speed.
Others, like Triple IRON athlete Rob Abcug easily stride across the finish line.
While others, like Double IRON athlete Will Shipley, being escorted in by fellow Double IRON athlete Steve Bozeman, are ecstatic to finish. Both Will and Steve are original Double IRON athletes, competing in the Huntsville AL Double IRON, the first in the world.
Paul Bedard used to hold the record for being the youngest Double IRON finisher in the world.
Some of our "athletes" ~ Double IRON Suzy Degazon and Triple IRON Beat Knechtle
Booboo's do happen at times. Double IRON athlete Kevin Labude,
And yes, the ever present blisters. But we have some of the finest sports doctors and EMT/Paramedics around, having provided medical care to dozens of multi-sport and ultra events a year for the past 15 years.
