Column: Ironmen have earned the name
Runners run. Walkers walk, all in the name of physical fitness. For some, clicking the TV remote is exercise enough.But competing in Ironman triathlons — a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride and 26.2-mile marathon — is quite a different animal.Participants, and there were 2,200-plus last weekend at the Ironman competition in Panama City Beach, Fla., endure a rigorous training regimen just so they can compete in one of the world's most demanding events. They suffer six months of physical punishment for one day of physical brutality.That's exactly what three area residents — Andy Meyer, Charles Smitherman and Curt Hammontree — did over the past half year.Once again, I ask.Why?"Well, you've got to have a screw loose somewhere," joked Meyer, a 45-year-old physical therapist.
