IRONMAN FLORIDA - At least 35 Minnesotans crossed the finish line at Ironman Florida last Saturday, and on behalf of our state's entire multisport community, MTN sends out full-throated congratulations and exuberant hugs and handshakes and high-fives and knuckle-bumps to these amazing people. Well done!
Here, in alpha order, are those Minnesotans who triumphantly placed an exclamation mark at the end of their respective 2012 seasons, doing so on the affectionately-known Redneck Riviera two days ago. Doubtlessly, some will return with tattoos.

Race Report for Kona 2012 Ironman World Championships
By Bennett Isabella
I will preface this with saying this was the hardest race I have ever done, hands down. But also one of the most fun races I have ever been a part of.
I arrived in Hawaii the Wednesday night before the race and walked around the city, which was buzzing with energy. Super fun just going around. On Thursday morning I went on a swim on the course which was actually tough because I was watching all the fish on the coral and had trouble getting the stupid grin off my face. I did my normal 20/30/20 on Thursday and Friday pre-race. Also downed tons of minerals and water to super hydrate myself which I managed to do successfully as I weighed in race morning I was an extra 3.0 lbs from what I had weighed a couple days before....

I slammed down the phone, exercising my right to express my disappointment. The officer on duty had been nice enough, but in the end, still refused to file my report.

At least 35 Minnesotans are registered for this weekend's Ironman Florida. Instead of simply wishing the entire group well, or listing names, we decided to tell you some cool stuff about most (30) of those participants, i.e. the ones who have Facebook pages. We'll deal with half of these folks today, and the rest on Thursday.
