my friend raced an IRONMAN

in the summer of 2017, i joined a triathlon team from Israel and flew to Austria, in order to race “Ironman Austria”.

ironman race consist of a 3800 meters swim in the lake, followed by a 180 kilometers ride in the spectacular area of Karenten, and finishes with a 42.2 kilometers marathon running over the area of Klagenfurt.

of course, participating in such a race require lots of hours of training for period of months.

but it all worth it!

The bike section of the race, is the longest between the dicplines.

but it is takes place in some beatifaul roads with great views of the alps mountains.

as we can see, the roads been painted by fans who tried to cheer the athletes. great atmosphere!
