B.C. woman captures world championship Ironman title in Hawaii
A Penticton woman made history last week during the world-renowned Ironman in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.
Thanks to her 11:07:19 finishing time, the 54-yer-old beat out the top competitors in her age group after the field of athletes completed a 2.4 miles ocean swim in the Kailua Bay, a 112-mile bike ride along a state highway and a 26.2-mile run on iconic Ali’i Drive. The Penticton athlete was one of two Canadian competitors last week to bring home a world title, with the other being North Vancouver’s Cullen Goodyear in the 70 to 74 female category.
