Episode 1: 2 Men & a Lady - Why is Ironman 2020 On The Cards?

Episode 1: 2 Men & a Lady - Why is Ironman 2020 On The Cards?

Getting started in triathlons and Ironman events is daunting for most individuals. Do you know that almost 40% of the field at the start line at first-time participants? Why and how did they decide to embark on one of the world's most gruelling endurance events?

What is a WHY? It is the purpose or belief that drives every one of us in life. It is what will guide us towards ultimate fulfillment. For the 3 of us, triathlons are the intersections of all our dreams and all our fears. Christine, Gerhard and Rienzo share their WHY and explore what journeying towards and participating in their first Ironman South Africa 2020, means to them.

"People who think that an IRONMAN is unattainable – I tell them that it is possible. I can take anyone – a person that does not have an athletic bone in their body and make them into a triathlete if they’re willing to put in the time. I’m the perfect example. I am not a great athlete, just a hard worker." – John Duke, IRONMAN Legend
