Long before Stuart Blofeld came on the scene with his crazy ultra running antics, LBAC had a member who was just as foolish when it came to entering ridiculous events. Having run a marathon as fast as he believed he was capable, many years ago Mark Kleanthous took up triathlons in the search for a new challenge! He has done double and triple Ironman races but until last month had never done any one of his previous thirty in forty degrees of heat. The link below is to an article written by his long suffering wife Clare, about the crazy event that is the Chinese Ironman.
