They are alloted 20 minutes afterwards, and whoever has the best time without throwing up, wins.
Annie Seawright-Newton won in the women’s category and Blake Vogleslang took the trophy in the men’s category.
This was the 51st annual Ironman in Hermosa.
Such an incredible tradition and a great way to start off the 4th with the feeling of freedom.
