I spent all day at Disney volunteering for an Ironman event being held there. I knew this Ironman consisted of three separate events, and I looked up the distances; it was a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run! I didn't realize how big this event was until I arrived, apparently, there were over 2,000 people who signed up for this from all over the world. I ended up working as a course director, basically pointing the runners at the intersection which way to go, and cheering them on. It ended up being great weather after all of the rainy days we've been having, and the heat kept away from the 90's. I wish I would have taken more pictures, but here are a couple.
I didn't get to go near the area where they swam, but the pictures were taken at the transition area from swimming to biking.
I ended up having a great time, meeting so many people, and I am looking forward to the next event.
