She did it! The amazing Beth Armstrong.
This past Sunday, Beth Armstrong completed the Ironman in 14 hours. She swam for 1hr 37min, she biked for 7hr 10min and ran for 4hr 49min. The 14 hours included transitions- that is why the time doesn’t exactly add up. I was thinking about Beth when I rolled out of bed at 6:30am. She was getting ready to start her swim. When I was ready to head off to bed at 9:30 she had just finished. Beth, you are a great inspiration!My interview with Beth is posted to the right if you want to read more.
Well done, Beth!! What an amazing life accomplishment. Congratulations.

Thanks Kristin for all your support and your inspiring website!
The Ironman was an amazing experience. It was long and gruelling, but one
of the best days of my life! And if I can do it, anyone can do it!
For those of you who have crazy fitness goals like me, just stick with it and don’t give up. All the pain will be worth the glory when you reach the finish line!

When my big sis told me she was signing up for the Iron Man I thought to myself, impressive! The day that she finished the race I thought to myslef as tears filled my eyes “she is truly amazing”!!! I quickly sent out an email to all of my friends and family boasting about my awesome big sis and what she had just accomplished! I am so proud of you Eva and truly find you to be an inspiration to me and so many others! I love you babe and can’t wait to see you in October!!!!!! YOU ROCK!!!!
