00:00The rain poured, but the Ironman Triathlon in State College Pennsylvania powered on this past Sunday.
00:07This grueling event covers 140.6 miles, a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride, and a full marathon all in one day.
00:18Now we wanted to take a moment to give a shout out to a few members of the AccuWeather team who took part.
00:23That includes AccuWeather's Director of Strategic Account Management and State College Mayor Ezra Naines on the left there.
00:32And of course, you know I'm on the right, the crystal ball meteorologist Joe Lumberg.
00:37I'm not sure if this was before or after.
00:39I think before. You see the smiles?
00:41Yeah, I was wondering who would be smiling afterwards, but I know they were both hard trainers for this event.
00:48It's not the first event that they've done, these Ironman triathlons.
00:51It's just amazing. I see Joe, you know, he finishes up his shift here, he goes right on his bike.
00:55I don't know how Ezra does it. That's a lot of jobs.
00:57And to also be training for long distance, you know, what is our excuse, Bernie?
01:00We don't have any except I don't think I could do it.
01:03Maybe I could walk it, but even that would be pushing it.
01:06No, props, props to them.
01:07They were saying the weather actually was, you know, good for this when you're doing that many miles.
01:11Obviously, your body's going to heat up really quickly, so nice to actually have a cooler day.
01:15We appreciate Ezra for sharing some of these pictures here.
01:17In addition to, you know, competing, he's also giving us content. You'll love it.
