Ironman US Championships in NYC



Finish Strong Racing's Manuel Abascal headed to NYC to take on Aquadraat Sports IRONMAN U.S. Championship race on August 10.  Manuel finished this beast of a race in 14:43:33.  He began with a 2.4 mile point-to-point swim in the Hudson River which he completed in 50:58.  Then he bicycled the 112 mile bike course that spanned the cliffs of Palisades Parkway in 6:58:38.  And finally, he survived the final 26.2 mile run course over the George Washington Bridge, finishing at 81st Street in the heart of NYC in 6:34:50.  Manuel's family was there to cheer him on to the finish.  Congratulations on this HUGE accomplishment!
