In three weeks I will attempt a full Ironman.Its 2.4 mile (3.86 km) open water swim, 112 mile(180 km) bike, 26.2 mile(42.20 km)run. Dehydration , cramping and bonking from no food stores left are the biggest obstacles not just the marathon distances of each sport. The average male competitor will require 11,000 calories of fuel and about 25 litres of water and electrolytes. As far as food thats 110 Clif Shots; or 45 PowerBars; or 88 bananas.
My goal is to raise $10,000 for Police/Firefighters PTSD http://www.ironman.com/triathlon/events/americas/ironman/canada/course.aspx#axzz5KQTdedZp http://www.vancouverfirefighters.ca/FireFit_for_PTSD/
