A diverse group of athletes is competing in one of the most demanding triathlon races. Some are aiming to qualify for a slot in the Hawaiian Kona race, considered by many to be the most difficult triathlon competition in the world.
Ironman was conceived in the late 1970's in Hawaii, after a discussion about which of three races was the most difficult. They were the Waikiki open water swim of 3.8 Km, the 112 mile (180 Km) bicycle race around Oahu, and the 42,195 Km (26.2 mi) Honolulu Marathon, and U.S. Navy Commander John Collins suggested to put all three races together.
His idea was met with laughter, but the triathlon was born. The Ironman Lanzarote is one of 20 races held around the world in which a participant may earn a spot in the Hawaii Ironman in Kona Island. Between 1,000 and 1,500 athletes from several countries compete at Lanzarote. The wind, the continuous ups and downs of the cycling course and the sea currents make this race one of the most difficult.
The winner typically finishes in 8 to 9 hours.
