ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Ironman Triathlon

An Ironman triathlon is a very difficult race. It is a long-distance event that includes three different sports: swimming, cycling, and running. It starts with a 2.4 mile swim, that is followed by a 112 mile bike ride, and then it finishes with a 26.2 mile run. That's a lot of swimming, cycling, and running so it is a very difficult race to complete!
