Ironman UK

Congrats to Finish Strong's James Vultaggio who completed Ironman UK on July 19 in 14:15:43. James reports, "This race was much harder than I had planned for as the morning of the race it poured rain with 20+ mph winds till about noon.  The climbing on this course was very intense with three very big hills that you had to do twice as it was a two loop course.  The largest being almost a two mile continuous ascent.   However, this will be as close as I will ever come to feeling like the Tour de France as the crowd support on the ride was overwhelming.  They stood right in the middle of the street yelling and screaming right next to you.  No excuses, this was a tough race and gave it my all."

You are an IRONMAN!! 

Here are his splits:
